Team
Four specialists in engineering, lighting, cameras and acoustics, working from one yard in Dorchester.
The people
Who plans and fits out your studio
Helen Marsh, Daniel Prowse, Priya Nair and Tom Whitcombe cover project management, signal flow, lighting and cameras, and room acoustics. You deal with the same people from first survey to handover.
-
Senior Broadcast EngineerDaniel Prowse
Daniel designs signal flow and gallery systems, and writes the documentation every handover relies on.
-
Lighting and Camera LeadPriya Nair
Priya plans lighting plots and camera positions, and coaches operators through their first live shows.
-
Acoustic ConsultantTom Whitcombe
Tom measures and treats studio spaces, balancing clear speech with practical, affordable materials.
Why a small team suits live television
Live studios fail at the joins between disciplines: audio meets lighting, cameras meet the gallery. Keeping four specialists in one team means those joins are planned together, not left to separate contractors.
One point of contact
Helen Marsh runs each project from the first call. She sets the scope, agrees the budget in writing and keeps the schedule visible to your producers and technical leads. When a decision affects another discipline, she brings the right colleague into the conversation before work begins, so you are not relayed between suppliers or asked the same question twice.
Documented engineering
Daniel Prowse draws the signal flow before any cable is run and labels every connection to match the drawing. The same documentation goes into the handover pack. When something fails at an awkward hour, your own engineers can trace the path without calling us, and anyone joining your crew later can learn the system from the paper.
Coaching on the floor
Priya Nair and Tom Whitcombe spend time with the people who will use the room. Priya works through camera positions and lighting with operators until they are comfortable on a live show. Tom explains what he measured and why each treatment sits where it does, so the room stays sound after we leave.
