Starting Pixel Live 2025 Announces Speaker Schedule

The annual Starting Pixel Live conference has announced its full speaker lineup for its 2025 event, which will take place on Wednesday, 15 October, at Rich Mix in East London.

Now in its third year, the one-day community conference brings together a range of professionals, including producers, directors, and technologists, to explore the real-world application of virtual production, AI, and location capture.

The focus of this year’s conference remains simple: real people, sharing real practical examples of using these new production technologies and tools. Starting Pixel Live remains proudly community driven, welcoming attendees from its 1200-strong global members and anyone else who may be curious about emerging production methods, regardless of background or on-set experience.

Starting Pixel Live 2025 will feature a full day’s programme across two stages, including talks from directors, producers, and virtual production supervisors, a student showcase, and the ever-popular demo jam session. Topics include:
Beyond Big Studios: Making Virtual Production Work for Small Creatives, Daniel Parry Evans Indie VP: Innovating with Indies, Lauren Newport-Quinn How to Train Your AI Monster, Ed Tracy Digital Meets Handmade: Can VP enhance stop-motion?, David Grey The full schedule is available at www.startingpixel.com/schedule

"There's often a gap between the people with decades of industry experience, the next generation coming in with new tools and knowledge, and those who are simply curious but have no idea how to get involved," explains Rob Chandler, founder of Starting Pixel. "Starting Pixel Live is about closing that gap, by welcoming everyone who is interested and enthusiastic, and bringing them together in one venue to talk honestly and learn from each other."

Tickets are on sale now, priced to keep access open to as many as possible. For more information go to: www.startingpixel.com/event-details/starting-pixel-live-2025
