In preparation for our upcoming Management Conference being hosted in Charlotte, USA, we’ve been busy in the Cypher office getting all of our kit out to create a detailed carnet list containing all of our sound and video equipment, and other miscellaneous items such as green screens and batteries.
We felt it’s about time we upgraded our banner printer. Sadly, Canon are discontinuing the inks for our current printer, the Canon ImagePROGRAF iPF6400, which has worked fantastically for the past 10 years, however, this gave us an excuse to purchase one of its successors, the Canon ImagePROGRAF iPF8400SE. This new banner printer is much larger, coming in at 189.3 (W) x 97.1 (D) x 114.4 (H) cm.
Following a recent conference held in Barcelona, we received lots of positive feedback from our clients about the new technologies we brought along with us. Last time it was a small iPad robot and a 3D hologram, this time we hope for much more.
We're updating our first aid training here at Cypher Media. A total of seven crew will be attending the session; it will be giving us the basics of insight into Health and Safety regulations, managing an incident, resuscitation, blood loss, shock, choking and much more.
March is a busy month for planning and preparation for upcoming events.
Our first recce of March will be at the Hilton, Prague; a centrally-located business hotel minutes away from the heart of the Czech capital.
Our first International Tax Academy of 2018 was held at the Rome Marriott Park Hotel, which boasts over 140,000 sq. ft of event space with 40 event rooms and 36 breakout rooms, which were all utilised for meetings of different sizes.
We're always looking for new ways to get creative with our clients and introduce new technologies. We recently supplied a mesmerising 3D holographic display to one of our client events in Barcelona, which received very positive feedback.
We all know that you shouldn’t wear green if you’re shooting a green screen shot, but what else should you avoid wearing?
Stripes and intricate patterns are almost always a big no-no when it comes to shooting video. This is because they create an optical effect called a ‘Moiré Pattern’ which can be very distracting on a video as it will seem like the pattern is flaring or strobing.
In preparation for the 6-day-long Rome job being held at the Rome Marriott Park Hotel, we’ve been very busy in the office updating our equipment.
We’ve treated ourselves this month! Our new Canon i-SENSYS MF734Cdw printer along with a custom-made flight case to fit has landed in the Cypher office!
We’re currently preparing for a 6-day-long Global Management Conference at The Hotel Arts in Barcelona, our first conference of the year!
We hope you had an enjoyable, relaxed festive season surrounded by family and friends. However, we're back! Well rested and ready to take on the non-stop first 2 months of 2018.
