BirdDog Maki Studio: A Flexible Multi-Cam Live Production Solution for iPad Users
By Stephanie R
BirdDog Maki Studio is redefining how portable and compact live productions are managed. Designed for flexibility and ease of use, Maki Studio allows users to switch between up to nine NDI camera sources using an iPad, making it an ideal solution for churches, schools, small event producers, and mobile streamers. The system also supports additional content like titles, video playback, and audio clips—all controllable from a touchscreen interface.
Maki Studio’s collaborative features are another standout. It supports two hardware control surfaces, allowing one operator to manage content while the other switches cameras. This team-based workflow offers added control and flexibility during live productions. BirdDog is also developing a certification and training program that will include a compatibility matrix, making it easier for users to know which iPad models deliver the best results.
