What studio teams say after working with us
Short letters from producers, studio managers and crew who have used our setup, coaching and review work, with a note on the kinds of organisations we advise.
Letters from studios we have worked with
These accounts come from people who asked us to look at their studios. They describe what changed in daily work, in their own terms.
Our gallery used to talk over each other during live inserts. After the workflow review we had a clear order for calls and a rewritten rundown format. The first live show after the changes was noticeably quieter, and new crew picked it up quickly.
Daniel spent two days with our camera operators. Framing became more consistent, and teleprompter work stopped being the part everyone dreaded. He gave us a short shot plan we still use when we train freelancers.
We had a small studio and a lighting rig that tripped the supply whenever we added a guest. Priya redesigned the plan around our power and rigging time, then showed two of us how to keep it tidy.
Tom rearranged our desk layout and talkback routing in an afternoon. Presenters stopped complaining about hearing the gallery in their ears, and our mixer finally had a layout she could explain to a stand-in.
The kinds of teams that ask for our help
Our work suits anyone building or running a studio for television news and live shows. The groups below describe typical needs we meet across equipment, camera, lighting and sound. None of this names a client; it shows where our services tend to fit.
Broadcasters
Teams that need studio equipment set up, tested and documented so a news or live programme runs reliably from the first rehearsal.
Independent production companies
Small crews who move between sets and need clear camera plans, lighting that suits their time and a calm gallery routine.
Venues adding live capability
Theatres, halls and event spaces that want to host live television and need practical advice on cabling, monitoring and crew communication.
Studio managers
People responsible for kit and schedules who want a written workflow review with changes they can introduce one at a time.
Camera and sound crews
Operators and audio staff who benefit from hands-on coaching in framing, pedestal moves, microphone choice and talkback routing.
Producers of live shows
Producers who depend on a rundown and gallery communication that hold up when the running order changes during transmission.
