A small team focused on live studios that stay on air

Early work centred on equipment integration: specifying vision mixers, routing, monitoring and intercom, then installing and testing them as a single chain. That experience taught us that most on-air problems begin at the joins between systems, not inside any one device. It still shapes how we plan every project.

As clients asked for more than racks and cabling, the team widened. Callum Reid joined to lead lighting and camera work, planning plots and layouts for news and interview formats. Priya Nair brought acoustic measurement and treatment, so that speech would be clear on air rather than only looking right on a monitor.

Daniel Okafor completed the picture by reviewing gallery procedures and writing run-of-show and fallback documents. Technology alone does not keep a programme on air; the people operating it need clear steps for the moments when something fails. Those documents are often the most used thing we leave behind.

Our clients are broadcasters, studio managers and production teams across the UK. Some are building a new studio, others are improving a room that has grown awkward over the years. We scale the work to suit, from a focused review to a full fit-out coordinated across all four disciplines.

We work from Kings Road Business Yard in Reading, close enough to visit sites easily and to keep our own test space nearby. The practice stays deliberately small, so the people who plan a project are the people who explain it and stand behind it at handover.
