Building work has begun on our new voiceover booth - well the chaos for the building work has begun - even if the actual work hasn't yet. Planning, organising, moving things, thinking 3 steps ahead etc.
Anyway we had to dismantle the production office and and move it so that it could be made larger. Unfortunately I am not the most technical person in the world so I asked the guy who built the studio and supplied all the kit for the booth for an idea of how much it would cost to move the studio temporarily while the building work goes on. Answer: Around £1,000. A Thousand Pounds!
So I thought I would have to put aside a day or so and do it myself. Which I have. Everything has been carefully labelled so that part A connects with part B etc. That's all fine but I had to find two very long cables to keep the PC connected to the studio. A few quick calls later and I found a great place around the corner - 5 minutes away.
After the technical guys managed to de-code my layman speak, an hour later one of them was round at BigFish Media towers with two 15 metre cables. And they work! So apart from the short time when the voiceover booth is being refurbished, we are still very much in business.
Oh and the cost? £50!
