Frequently asked questions

Common queries from clients considering our services.

?

How long does a typical project take?

Timelines vary considerably based on project scope. A straightforward news desk might require six to eight weeks from brief to installation, whilst a complex entertainment set could extend to four months or longer. We always work backwards from your on-air date to establish realistic milestones.

?

Do you work with productions outside Manchester?

Absolutely. Whilst our studio is based in MediaCity, we regularly undertake projects across the United Kingdom and occasionally in Europe. Travel and logistics costs are incorporated into project quotations as appropriate.

?

Can you work within existing budgets?

We approach every project with respect for budgetary constraints. During initial discussions, we explore different approaches that might achieve similar creative outcomes at varying price points, allowing you to make informed decisions about where to invest.

?

What happens after installation?

We provide comprehensive handover documentation and operator training where required. Our warranty covers the first twelve months, and we offer ongoing maintenance agreements for clients requiring regular support or seasonal updates to their sets.
