Green Hippo Launches Hands-On Hippotizer Media Server Training

Green Hippo has announced the launch of its new Hippotizer Media Server training courses at Pixel Academy, a purpose-built learning environment designed to combine hands-on creativity, real-world technology, and expert instruction.

The initiative, developed alongside sister brand tvONE as part of ACT Entertainment, aims to equip the next generation of live events and AV professionals with the skills to deliver immersive, interactive visual experiences.

Located within Green Hippo's R&D Innovation Centre in Maidenhead, just 20 minutes from London Heathrow, Pixel Academy provides access to the latest high-performance AV tools, including the award-winning Hippotizer MX Series Media Servers, CALICO PRO creative video processors, and a complete suite of high-resolution LED displays, creating a fully immersive training space.

"Pixel Academy is an environment where imagination and engineering co-create," said Bob Bonniol, Chief Innovation Officer at ACT Entertainment. "It gives creators the tools and the space to experiment, to prototype, to fail forward and ultimately to build experiences that move people. This isn’t just training — it is fuel for the next wave of immersive storytelling."

The hands-on courses at Pixel Academy allow participants to work directly with cutting-edge media server technology, preparing them to design and execute complex visual productions across live events, installations, and AV experiences.
