What you will master

Six disciplines behind every great live show

Our programme covers the whole production chain, so your crew can solve problems before they reach the screen.

Studio equipment integration

Route cameras, switchers, intercom and monitoring into one dependable signal chain.

Dynamic camera techniques

Master pedestal, jib and handheld moves that keep the picture lively without losing the shot.

Acoustic optimisation

Tame reflections, place microphones well and keep dialogue clean from the first word.

Lighting setups

Build key, fill and back light that flatters presenters and stays consistent on camera.

Reliable production processes

Rundowns, cue sheets and backup plans so one failure never takes you off air.

News, interviews and live shows

Adapt your workflow to the pace and format of each programme type.

How a residency works

Let's get you on air

It has never been easier to prepare a live broadcast. Follow six clear steps from first brief to final review, and we will be beside you for each one.

We learn your format, crew size and the problems you want to solve on air.
2
Plan
Together we draft the rundown, camera plot, lighting plan and audio map.
3
Rig
Equipment is integrated, labelled and tested before anyone steps on set.
4
Rehearse
Timed run-throughs with talkback, cues and deliberate failures to practise recovery.
5
Go live
Your crew runs the show while our instructors stand by in the gallery.
6
Review
Recorded playback and a written debrief highlight what to refine next time.
