Main Sound Stage
THE MAIN SOUND STAGE
The Main Sound Stage offers the largest infinity cove in the North West of England that is completely soundproofed and sound deadened, giving you perfect sound quality for sync audio.
The cove can be made up as greenscreen, bluescreen, white cyc or blackout as standard. In fact, using our LED array we can light the cove almost any colour you want. We also offer bespoke painting services, as well as full set design and construction.
The Main Sound Stage is also equipped for virtual production, fitted with a live camera tracking system capable of updating Unreal Engine graphics in real time. The tracking system can be used with LED walls, projection systems or be live keyed using our 4K keyers. Giving you fully compted films, as well as unkeyed footage and tracking data for post-production.
The studio has a pole operated pantograph system installed in the ceiling, allowing faster light rigging, movement and changes that can be performed from the stage floor without use of scissor lifts or additional rigging.
Both single and 125A 3 phase supplies are available, ensuring there is never a requirement for additional generator supplies.
Our high level scene dock leads directly onto the stage floor enabling faster loading and unloading of large vehicles.
Dressing rooms, production offices and greenrooms are conveniently located immediately outside the stages a few metres from the set.
Free onsite parking is available for up 40 vehicles, and with our own onsite catering services, all catering can be provided without the need for outside catering, dining buses or additional support vehicles.
Finally, the studio has a 10GB fibre optic network providing very high data transfer to remote post production. It also enables frame accurate live remote monitoring by agencies and clients.
