Studios, stages and control rooms we have planned
Examples of how we plan studios and live stages
These scenes show the kind of work behind our services. Each caption describes the approach taken to a particular type of space or production.
Compact television studio layout
A single room divided into set, camera positions and a small control area. The plan keeps cable runs short and leaves clear walking routes for the crew.
Overhead lighting rig for panel shows
A grid of lamps arranged so each presenter is lit from the front and slightly above. Dimming is grouped by seat so the operator can balance the set quickly.
Multi-camera control position
A control desk arranged so the vision mixer can see every camera feed and the programme output together. Intercom and remote camera controls sit within easy reach.
Concert sound mixing position
A mixing desk placed with a clear view of the stage and speakers. The microphone plan lists every input in order so changeovers between acts run smoothly.
Festival stage technical layout
A stage plan showing where lighting, sound and video equipment sit, and how cables reach them safely. The same drawing is used by every crew member on the day.
Production control room review
A review of how scripts, rundowns and camera cues move between staff before a show. Small changes to the order of tasks removed repeated handovers.
The kinds of teams that ask for our help
We work with people who make television, streaming and live events, and with the venues that host them. The groups below describe typical needs rather than named clients. What they share is a wish for a working space and a method their crew can rely on.
Independent television crews
Small teams who need a dependable studio setup and a lighting and camera plan they can run themselves, without a full-time technical department.
Streaming studio owners
Owners of rooms used for talks, podcasts and live streams who want clean sound, flattering light and simple, repeatable control.
Venues and halls
Theatres, community halls and function rooms that host concerts and events and need sensible stage layout, lighting and sound plans.
Festival and event organisers
Organisers planning concerts, festivals and party stages who need technical planning from stage layout through to show control.
Broadcast production managers
Managers looking to simplify scheduling, camera control and delivery routines so shows run to time with fewer repeated handovers.
Educational and community broadcasters
Colleges, societies and local broadcasters building a first studio on a limited budget and wanting advice they can follow in stages.
