We’re content creators and technical service providers to business, education, and influencers. Our mantra of “Special Media Projects” means we take on those challenges that others shy away from, we love the clever little things.
We create content. We manage and operate radio stations for broadcast, hospitality, and retail. We build in-store radio and background music services. We build sets for TV and Film. We design and install specialist concealed audio and special effects systems for theme parks, retail, and attractions. We do all this and more… If you have a project that requires media, or any form of technology, then we can help you.
Our solutions include audio and video automation for delivering Radio and TV shows over the air or via live streaming; we provide automated closed captioning and subtitles. We create bespoke audio and video packages, produce podcasts, and help businesses communicate their message and engage with customers.
Specialist Audio and Visual Systems
Disguising and camouflaging audio systems is a real art, not only to integrate the hardware into the given environment but to ensure that hardware still performs acoustically, with any camouflaging techniques being transparent so as to not interfere with sound reproduction.
We integrate audio and visual systems into the retail or themed environments so the equipment used to relay sound is hidden from view, creating the illusion that the sound is part of the fabric of the building, part of the experience, set or given space. This creates a magical and integrated customer experience.
Camouflaging or disguising audio and visual systems is not just a technique for the theme park and leisure industry. There are many applications in which modern equipment needs to be integrated into the fabric of buildings and spaces. Listed buildings, churches and other historically sensitive spaces all require subtle and complementary treatments.
If required, we partner our camouflaged audio solutions with carefully designed playlists, made for each users individual and exacting needs, such as sound effects or even “audio masking” a technique where sound is artificially forced into the space to disguise other ambient noises.
