You work on professional studio cameras, LED and tungsten lighting, broadcast microphones, a vision mixer and an audio desk.
Can you train my whole production team?
Yes. Crew and team programmes can run in our studio or be adapted to your own floor, with a rundown based on your real show.
Where do the courses take place?
Sessions run in our studio in the United Kingdom. The full address is on the contacts page, along with directions.
