Video Production & Post Production Services

We have been creating high quality films for over 20 years. We also help other people finish their films and then format them for DVD or Blu-ray, TV or Cinema broadcast as DCP or for social media and the Internet. Each section below gives a brief outline of our capabilities from Video Production, pre-production and scripting to VFX Visual Effects, Audio Recording and Sound Mixing and Audio Clean up to Disc authoring, Duplication and Replication. Browse some of our blog entries about our projects or please get in touch to discuss how we can help you. Don't be shy - no job too big or small from a 30 second DCP for your short or a full production film and edit for a new DVD.
