Special Delivery Sound Mix

We've recently completed a sound mix for the short film Special Delivery, produced by Richard Cambridge and written by David Hawk. The film will premier at the WorldFest Houston International Film Festival, which takes place between 9 and 18 April.

Wootton Bassett Young Chamber

We spent an enjoyable afternoon with the Wootton Bassett School Young Chamber recently discussing how we and the other companies present can offer our help and expert specialist knowledge to pupils at the school. The Young Chamber is an initiative to give students the opportunity to gain confidence and skills to become an effective leader. It also enables them to work alongside business people to develop successful projects and also to develop partnerships with other young people across the UK. As part of their experience the Young Chamber is expected to organize several projects throughout the year such as Christmas markets, 'Dragons Den', company visits and business workshops, amongst others. As a company we will act as an occasional sounding board for the local students as and when they need our help and advice and we hope some exciting projects will come out of the initiative.

Wootton Bassett Repatriation Documentary

We were asked to provide camera and filming services for a Liverpool based film maker, who is developing a documentary about the Wootton Bassett Repatriations. Using a two-camera shoot we obtained footage from the event and conducted interviews with members of the public, many of whom attend the repatriation services on a regular basis. The idea behind the film is to show what it's like to really be there - something that's not often portrayed on the news reports.

The event was extremely moving at times (even though it had been attended before by us) and getting the balance of obtaining film footage and paying the utmost respect to the five repatriated soldiers and their families was a very difficult challenge.
