Three decisions to make first.

Keep the plan simple enough to remember when the microphones are on.

Want to focus on talking?

With Signature, our team produces and monitors the session, supplies the recording media and delivers one full long-form edit with camera switching. Elevate adds motion graphics and five reels.

If you have your own production experience, Essential is dry hire. Our staff sets up the equipment; you run and monitor the recording.

BEFORE THE MICROPHONES GO ON

Bring three good questions.

Use an outline to keep the discussion moving, and leave space for the guest’s answers. Keep names, artwork and any useful references together.

  • Your main subject and three questions
  • Guest names and their pronunciation
  • Your logo, colours and artwork for the edit
  • Your chosen studio and package
Recording with Essential?
