Located in Manchester. Space for several contributors including producers. Professionally treated specifically for voice recording, with no ‘echo’ or unpleasant room tone/reverb.
Dial in with ZenCast, Zoom, Riverside and more with HD video feeds, for face-to-face interaction.
We deliver podcasts via the client-provided drive at broadcast quality. We provide H.264 1080p files of the 4 cameras for multi‑cam editing. A DaVinci Resolve project with audio and video assets is provided so you can edit, rebalance audio and add colour correction. Additionally, by prior arrangement, we can deliver 6k BRAW video files for finishing in 4K/6K UHD.
Audio and video files are aligned by time of day time code, so all camera angles & sound will be perfectly synced.
There are make-up/changing rooms, showers and a reception space too.
All rooms are air-conditioned. 4x T1.5 cinema lenses and up to 26 lights to pick and choose from to create the exact mood.
We have remote workflow integration ready using platforms such as Zoom. Remote dial-ins for contributors or filmed interview setups are an option. We can share an HD feed from our studio with the remote attendees on the call, and vice versa.
