Edit Suites
The high definition digital edit suites have extensive facilities and capabilities for recording, editing, special effects, and digital audio. Specialising in high-end heritage projects we provide compositing, visual effects, 3D animation, HD and SD editing, titles design and graphics, audio production and sound design to full broadcast standards.
Animation Suite
Animation can be used to expand an audience’s imaginative capability. Animation can improve learning and comprehension when compared to presenting static text and images; it also makes for a more memorable experience. We can make complex look simple and simple look stunning.
Sound Design
We provide full audio production and sound design to broadcast standards. Our approach is collaborative, working closely with our client throughout the project. From initial script meetings, through choice of voice over artist, sound effects, attendance of recordings, to mixing, final post effects and finishing.
Music Studio
Our aim is quite simple. To create innovative, high quality and, above all, original music. Whether it’s for the heritage sector, the latest O2 television commercial, a broadcast documentary, or world-renowned performing artists such as the Sugababes.
