Feeds you can stake a live broadcast on
A dropped frame or a lost return feed is noticed instantly on air. Our courses teach the habits behind dependable feeds: clean signal paths, disciplined monitoring and calm decision-making when something changes minutes before transmission.
Every session is built around real operating scenarios from news programmes and television production, not slide decks.
- Broadcast-grade kit
- Taught by working engineers
- Small hands-on cohorts

The feed chain
Six stages from camera to viewer
We teach the full journey of a feed, so you understand how each decision upstream shapes what reaches the audience.
- 1
Capture
Cameras, framing and exposure that give the rest of the chain clean material.
- 2
Encode
Choosing formats and bitrates that protect quality without choking the link.
- 3
Contribute
Moving feeds from field to facility over fibre, IP and bonded cellular.
- 4
Monitor
Reading scopes, meters and alarms so faults are caught before the viewer sees them.
- 5
Distribute
Handing off to playout and delivering to broadcast and online platforms.
- 6
Archive
Keeping logged, searchable copies so material can be found and reused.
