Open in Google MapsS.02 The room
Our newsroom, our crew and our engineers on one floor.
The same people plan your project, film it and edit it.
The floor One floor of long shared desks behind glass.
The rooms along the same corridor become film sets.
The newsroom Our own reporters, at the same desks.
They publish every day.
The editing room Ours, in the same building.
Filmed in the morning, cut the same day.
The film crew Camera, lighting and sound, all ours.
They film your job and our own news. Meet them.
An office desk, dressed as a product set for a skincare shoot.
The same floor after dark, on our own build. Somebody is still at a monitor behind the glass.
S.03 The equipment
The equipment, and what it does.
We own all of it, and it lives here between jobs.
Cameras Professional cameras, set up to be carried by hand.
Interviews, product shots and everything between.
Steady moving shots A motorised handle that holds the camera level.
It keeps the picture smooth when the camera moves.
Support vest A vest and spring arm that carry the camera’s weight.
It takes the weight, so a shot runs as long as the scene needs.
Sound Three wireless microphones, plus one that points at a single voice.
Two people talking, or one on a noisy street, both record cleanly.
Lighting Lights on stands, and a large soft one for the main light.
Enough for an interview with two people, or a product shoot.
Radio mics and one directional mic, in their own cases. Two people talking, or one on a noisy street.
The edit desk. Footage shot in the morning is cut here the same day.
Three lights, two crew, and a room on our own floor turned into a set.
S.04 The visit
