BUILT BY SOMEONE WHO’S BEEN ON YOUR SHOW FLOOR

Learn from 30+ years of real-world event production experience.

Scott Frankel developed MPAC after decades of producing events and educating meeting professionals about AV purchasing, production and contract negotiation. MPAC isn’t an engineering school. It’s the AV education planners that actually need to make better decisions.

The Meeting Professional AV Certificate (MPAC) program was developed by Scott Frankel, the President of Animatic Media, who is one of the most respected voices in audiovisual event production. Over the last two decades, Scott has been educating the meeting and event planner community on the proper way to specify, evaluate RFPs, and audiovisual needs for conferences and meetings of all sizes.

Scott is one of the strongest voices advocating for transparency between venues and in-house audiovisual providers. His down-to-earth and blunt teaching style prepares planners for the real information they need to know. The curriculum Scott has developed for the MPAC program is not too technical, but more practical, real-world world actionable information.

It’s through Scott’s experience speaking at almost every major event industry conference, webinar, and in front of thousands of planners that MPAC was born. There is no other true education that offers the “The Business of AV” approach. Audiovisual budgets are too significant, and this education certificate is a must for any event professional wishing to take their job seriously.
