The power of moving images

Video is a powerful tool in community heritage and interpretation.

We understand both the technicalities of shooting and editing short films and the aims of organisations using this medium to engage people in their projects.

The expert in your pocket

From spoken-word stories to bird calls, audio is an enjoyable way to enhance interpretation and engage people in the key themes of any site.

We are used to experiencing audio interpretation in museums and visitor centres but with the growth of smartphone ownership and 4G technology, visitors can listen to audio guides in outdoor heritage and nature conservation settings.

• Scripting and text editing
• Recording content – spoken word, on-site recordings, interviews
