Video Podcasts & Interviews

Our podcast & interview set provides a professional, perfectly lit space to showcase your presenters and subject matter via multi-camera set-up and high quality sound

Video Podcasts

Our video podcast facilities offer the latest technology to ensure a professionally crafted video podcast. The podcast set provides a professional or relaxed backdrop for your podcast as appropriate, including high quality RGB lighting, all fully configurable. Participants can be seated in comfortable, smart armchairs or seated around a table as preferred.

We can accommodate up to 4 people for a recording (more at a push) with high quality audio captured on industry-standard microphones either in, or out of shot at your preference.

Our multi-camera set-up uses the latest 4k dedicated studio cameras from Blackmagic Design to ensure each speaker can be recorded in high quality video and edited together in our post-production editing suite to provide a finished product suitable for social media, Youtube or corporate website.

Audio is recorded using TV-studio quality microphones (Sennheiser MKH416) and mixed/mastered to ensure your audience hears every word and nuance of your discussion.

For scripted podcasts, teleprompters are available and for unscripted, if required, an interviewer or facilitator is available to help structure the discussion and ensure your key message comes across to your audience.

The set also offers the ability to record interviews with remote guests via 75" screen with armchair or studio-style desk available for the host/interviewer. Interviews can be conducted via Zoom, Teams, Riverside FM or other platforms as required and can incorporate screen-shares with 'picture in picture' editing.

Whether it’s talking about football, Formula 1, crochet or collecting Beanie Babies your podcast is your space to tell the world about your passion. Many record these in their bedrooms on minimal equipment but if you want yours to stand out in a highly competitive market place – particularly Youtube – then production quality becomes crucial to elevate your podcast above others.

Why not get in touch to discuss your ideas – putting a series together may be cheaper than you expect.

Outdoor Locations

The studio is located on an extensive 5-acre rural site surrounded by beautiful Norfolk countryside. The site is surrounded by mature hedges with open countryside backdrops - most of which provide a timeless, neutral background with no buildings or assets to limit possibilities.

The cyclorama was constructed to exacting standards to provide users with a very high quality facility giving the best chance for a good quality key, reducing time and problems in post editing.

The cyclorama is painted with Rosco Chroma Green paint to provide a high quality, even green shade. The extensive DMX controlled lighting layout has been designed by an industry professional to ensure even lighting of both cyclorama and subjects. 21 high CRI, Nanlux LED panels are temperature controlled between 2700K and 7500K with soft, even lighting.
