Internal - New Warehouse Premises May 2007

After months of searching we have finally found a new warehouse. Our new 5000 square foot warehouse is twice as large as we need, so plenty of room for building sets, stages and trusses before jobs.

We have been fortunate enough to purchase the warehouse freehold, so we own the place. This means the space will be designed and developed for our bespoke use.

Benefits will include faster kit-turnaround, better job preparation and, most of all, the opportunity for clients to come and see their job fully setup in advance!

 

 

Kit - Martin MAC 2000 Purchase April 2007

A popular service for our clients if the projection of gobos onto buildings and inside buildings.

Due to demand for various events, we have invested in some Martin Mac 2000s which are one of the most powerful and advanced moving lights available.

So far the lights have been used at Sommerville College Ball Oxford, and are due to go out to the Messe in Dusseldorf, Germany for exhibition projection.
