New Years Blog


Hi Loyal Readers,

Happy New Year! Can we still say that? Is there a limit? Feb is surely the cut off?

Nice to put pen to paper again as this writer has been gathering his thoughts, racking his brain for any amusing anecdotes to impart. Think it took a few weeks to build up on a story worth reading.

Xmas  > Ate  + Boxing Day > Drunk + New Years < Slept = Stomach bug

Above is as much a diary entry as it is a scientific equation of events that led to poorly times over the Xmas period.

Its nice to be back and we start the new years blog. I may as well use this new found Blog writing rhythm and transfer it to writing a speech for Camberwell Studios at Phink TV's Music Video Forum.




The show comprises of music video producers and other industry professionals discussing the intricate logistical, financial and creative headaches that producing a  Music video can conjure up.

We are there to offer advice based on our previous experience gathered at the Studios. How many people involved? What aspects are to be included? Where, when, how will the video be used? It raises many questions to the style, the approach, the demographic, the elements included and the most important. Budget.

Please come and see us offer some creative nuggets of wisdom based on our experiences at the studio.

See a selection of the Studios best work from the links below:




This presentation will be a good opportunity to show our previous work and to inform people of our up-coming Music Video Production company emerging from The Studios: EPIK.
Epik offer Music Video Production – Editing – performance led videos – EPK's and more!. 

Stay in touch for more details or see the Twitter and Youtube sections.



(Epik Music Videos is in its early stages of social networking

Entries have been coming in for our Studio Day Prize Draw worth up-to £1000. All you need do is click the link, leave your email and you'll be entered into our free prize draw.





We have been asking for peoples ideas as to what they would make with the Studio day. Lots of entrants would love to do their own music video, tell their stories in showreels, make a short film, build their portfolio, and take stills.











When we draw the prize at the end of the month we will have a special edition of the Blog where we will provide lots of exposure for the winner through pictures, links and publicity so this really is a great opportunity to get yourself known or use the day to create something magical

Lastly, we have our lovely new Studio 2 cove update. Much smoother! This has been 1 of many updates that we have planned for this new year. Extra green screen all round. Better Chroma paint, updated Kit and Crew List which could save time and money. See our logistics support advice on our new FAQ section here.
