MCX/The Journey

One route, eight spaces.

Walk the entire MCX floor, zone by zone, the way a production actually flows — from the door, through live and virtual, into cinema and music, and out through colour.

The problem this answers
Eight zones in ninety minutes leaves time to see everything and evaluate nothing.

A tour is organised around the building. A route is organised around the decision you came to make — which is why the order below matters more than the list. Capture, switch, finish: the floor is laid out the way a production actually runs, so what you shoot in Zone 04 can be graded in Zone 08 before you leave.

Ask now

A question is faster than a form.

Message the floor and a specialist answers — not a queue.

The floor

One route, eight stops.

The layout follows production order rather than product category. Enter through the network that carries everything, move through acquisition and live, cross into music and performance, finish in colour.

Journey logic

One connected story.Not eight separate rooms.

The layout follows the way a production is experienced: enter the centre, move into live and virtual production, step into cinema and IP video, cross into music creation, then complete the journey through recording and finishing. Footage shot in Zone 04 can be graded in Zone 08 the same day.

What is inside

Eight zones,in production order.

The floor is laid out the way a production runs. What you shoot in Zone 04 can be graded in Zone 08 the same afternoon — which is the whole argument for putting them under one roof.

Zone 01 · Arrival

It starts with a question.

A specialist asks what you came to decide, then builds the route around the answer — because two zones done properly beats eight rushed.

Five bodies. One lens. One light.

Who it is for

Six kinds of visitor.One route each.

Tell us which of these you are when you book, and the route is built around it.

Broadcast & live
Broadcasters, OB, houses of worship, conferencing

Compare hybrid IP against pure SDI on the same cameras, and see what one operator can realistically run.

Film & content
DoPs, rental houses, production companies

Five cinema bodies under identical light and glass, then graded the same day in a colour-managed suite.

Audio & music
Producers, engineers, artists, studios

Build a track, track it through a studio-grade chain, perform it on a real stage, mix it on corrected monitoring.

Integrators & AV
Systems integrators, IT and AV managers

Watch NDI, Dante, SRT and ST 2110 share one NETGEAR Pro AV backbone under load, and take the design away.

Post & colour
Editors, colourists, post houses

The full Resolve ecosystem on calibrated reference, with the region's only T3-certified trainer.

Education
Universities, institutions, student groups

A curriculum-shaped route through a working facility, taught by practitioners rather than demonstrated.
