That's 5 months down, 7 to go! We've had a fun first half of the year here at Cypher Media with jobs in Barcelona, Copenhagen, Dublin, London and Charlotte! 

Last week we tackled two jobs in London and Barcelona, both with happy clients, you can read more about the successful Barcelona here! 

Adrian and Chris are currently in Barcelona providing for a Global Management Conference being held at the gorgeous Sofia Hotel across a 4-day-long period. 

Last year we said goodbye to our beloved Canon ImagePROGRAF IPF6400 banner printer due to the discontinuation of genuine Canon ink cartridges. That model did a fantastic job covering over 10 years, but we felt like it was time for a change, instead of just using compatible cartridges.

There are many different ways to shoot interviews, one of the ways is to use a method called talking heads. The talking head interview is an effective way of formally communicating to an audience and can be easily varied for the purpose of the video.

Here at Cypher Media, corporate filming and event management is what we do. Not convinced? Here's why you should be.

1. e-Learning

Videos shot at events and conferences can be a great tool for your employees, whether attendees missed parts of sessions, or were unable to attend at all.

We’re coming to the end of the International Tax & Legal Academy being hosted in Copenhagen. Across the course of this week, we’ve tackled Town Hall sessions for over 600 people right down to small meetings fit for 10. Our large crew of skilled technicians have been working around the clock to assure everything goes smoothly. The two arctic lorries arrived on Saturday, this was then followed by a hectic Sunday for the rigging of the event. 

You’ve been framed!

We’re flying out to Barcelona in late April to provide AV support and general technical assistance at a Global Management Conference. 

This one is a bit different however! Our clients have hired out the ZUU Live dinner experience & night club and we’ll be replacing over 40 picture frames on their wall with appropriate branding for the night!

We’re all set for Copenhagen in just over two weeks’ time!

At the end of March, a huge crew of 29 will be flying, or driving, out to The Tivoli Hotel in Copenhagen, we’ll be there providing set & stage, AV and general tech support across the 5-day-long International Tax & Legal Academy.  

 Every year we undergo a strict PAT test which ensures all the electrical equipment we are using onsite is safe and reliable to work with. The equipment is tested and either passed or failed based on a range of variables such as earth continuity, lead polarity and insulation resistance checks.

We’re looking forward to using much of our newly purchased kit that we’re yet to fully try out this year. We purchased a gorgeous Sony XDCAM PXW-FS5 last month and after taking it along to one job, we’re already in love.

IOSH is the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health, it’s a not-for-profit organisation where its main goal is to raise health and safety standards in the workplace. The course helps develop a code of conduct when in charge of your organisation’s employees.It’s a very well known and effective course that we believe at least one person from every organisation should attend and get their certification in.

We're in for a busy year here at Cypher Media. 

Kicking it all off is a recce to Copenhagen, Denmark, to take a look at the next venue to host the EMEA International Tax & Legal conference.
