Boosting learning engagement with an AI-powered virtual production coach.

Working with Final Pixel Academy, the Hartree Centre North East Hub developed an AI-powered virtual production coach to boost learning engagement by providing tailored learning experiences.

Challenge

Final Pixel Academy, a specialist in virtual production training led by industry experts, faced a significant challenge in managing their personalised learning approach. Offering both online and in person courses to a diverse audience including commercial organisations, educational institutions, experienced industry professionals, and the public requires substantial manual effort. Their team needed to handle numerous general queries related to their course offerings, often requiring direct intervention. This process was both time-consuming and resource-intensive, affecting their operational efficiency and posing challenges to scaling their services seamlessly.

Approach

Language model, Final Pixel Academy developed an AI-based personalised coach assistant to enhance personalised learning. The system processes course content, including descriptions, skills, and transcripts, to answer user queries accurately. It leverages Agent supervisor and LLMs to understand user queries, provide relevant recommendations, and ask follow-up questions to better Benefits understand user needs. This approach reduced manual effort, improved scalability, and enhanced the overall learning experience.

Benefits

Final Pixel’s AI solution drives measurable impact, reducing manual workloads by 45% while accelerating learning outcomes through adaptive personalisation. The system boosts engagement by 30% and identifies at-risk learners with 85% accuracy, enabling timely support. By automating routine tasks, staff gain 15+ weekly hours for high-value instruction, all while maintaining inclusive, data-driven education standards that scale with demand.

"Working with the Hartree Centre North East Hub has been transformative.  We have really enjoyed working with the team at the Hartree Centre North East Hub and we hope to be able to work with them again in the future."
"The support that was provided from the Hartree Centre North East Hub was very informative, timely, they were very friendly and very resourceful. They were always there to answer my questions. I think the support and the programme itself is so beneficial, even though it is only 12 weeks, it is a great jumping off point for what comes next."

- Dr Jodi Nelson-Tabor, Final Pixel Academy
