Services

We offer our international clients  ‘full service solutions’  for their production needs here in Western Canada.

If you’re shooting a network documentary, a magazine piece or a high-end corporate project, let us put together the team and equipment that you'll need to make your shoot a success. We specialize in fully equipped ENG/EFP camera and sound teams and often crew multiple camera shoots.

Remote Control - Because many of our international clients are not able to travel at this time we are doing many interviews by  'Remote Control'.   We use our Camera Interface Box to route the actual SDI output of our camera(s) to the remote producer via Zoom or Skype etc. This 'live camera output' helps them accurately judge whether they are getting the material they need for their edit. We can discuss shot composition, framing, lensing, lighting etc. as if they were on site.  Following the shoot we send the actual full rez camera footage by digital file transfer or Fedex.

                                  One of our happy customers calls it   "being there without being there"

LIVE CONNECTION   -  We offer many LIVE connection options.

We can do 'live hit / insert' shoots for broadcasters from virtually anywhere. We use Dejero, LiveU or TVU bonded cellular packages and also offer portable satellitte uplink packages for even more remote locations.

Recently we were part of a team which helped the Canadian Space Agency and NASA connect students at a Vancouver school with astronaut David Saint Jacques on the International Space Station. The ISS was travelling at 7 km/second or 15,500 mph and the connection was rock solid.

While most of our shoots are  'on location'  we work with several local studios to supply studio space if required for special setups where large controlled spaces are needed for greenscreen or high security purposes.
