At BC Studios, we're dedicated to enhancing your production experience. We understand that technical difficulties can disrupt the creative process, which is why we've made several key upgrades to ensure your sessions run more smoothly and efficiently.
Advanced Video and Audio Integration with Blackmagic Studio 4K Pro Cameras
We’ve upgraded to the Blackmagic Studio 4K Pro cameras, a significant improvement that ensures both video and audio stay perfectly in sync. The best part? We’ve eliminated the need for an external audio recorder. Now, all microphones are directly connected to the cameras via XLR cables, keeping audio and video seamlessly aligned. This integration not only improves synchronization but also streamlines the post-production editing process, saving you time and reducing the chance for errors.
Easy Live Editing with ATEM Mini Integration
For those looking to record or broadcast live, the HDMI output from the cameras can be routed into the ATEM Mini for external recording or live editing. This allows for a more professional production experience, enabling you to control and manipulate the footage in real time for smoother broadcasts and a more polished final product.
Enhanced Audio Quality with New Acoustic Treatments
We’ve also recently remodelled the studio to include acoustic wall panels, specifically designed to reduce noise and echo, providing clearer, higher-quality sound for all your recordings. This upgrade ensures that your podcast or video content sounds as good as it looks.
SSD External Recording for Unlimited Space and Faster File Transfers
To ensure you never run out of recording space, we’ve added an SSD external recording option to our setup. This means you can record high-quality video without worrying about storage limits. Plus, when your session is done, you can quickly transfer files either online or directly to an external hard drive. Whether you need to upload to cloud storage or back up locally, the transfer process is fast and efficient, allowing you to get your content out without delays.
Dedicated Production Technician for Seamless Filming and Recording
Our Production Technicians are on hand throughout your session to ensure everything runs smoothly. From camera settings and audio adjustments to handling the filming and recording, our technicians will manage all technical aspects of your production. This allows you to focus fully on your content while we take care of the equipment, ensuring that your session is as efficient and professional as possible. Whether you’re recording a podcast or filming a live stream, our team will be there every step of the way.
Commitment to a Seamless Production Experience
While we’re always excited to welcome new clients, we want to apologize for any previous technical hiccups. Our team is dedicated to maintaining a professional environment and minimizing any disruptions during your recording sessions. We’re confident these new upgrades will deliver a much smoother and more enjoyable production experience.
