Our state-of-the-art studios and modern offices are located in central London, close to Baker Street and Marylebone stations. Our editorial staff, camera people, editors, directors and producers work together, in the same building, ensuring that there is complete continuity on assignments, and the speediest and most efficient turnaround on projects.
We do not sub-contract work to other edit houses, or use other outside facilities, except where we can directly control the quality. So, most of our projects are handled in house to ensure the highest possible standards, efficient turnaround, and the best value for money for our clients.
Our technical facilities and studios are equipped to the latest broadcast standard, which you would find in the BBC, ITV or Sky. In fact, the BBC has used our facilities in the past for its own recordings. Our staff are highly qualified in their respective professions, and are experts in making the best use of the latest equipment.
Our television facilities include...
- television interview studio
- AVID edit suites
- SADIE radio edit suite
- audio studio
- DVD production, duplication and printing facility
- tape duplication
- extensive film and tape library
- client's archive storage room

- client hospitality
Editing
There is no such thing as a house style at Campaign! Our experienced and professional editors enjoy the challenge of creating highly individual films to suit each client. They will use the pictures and graphics to create an impressive visual message which will match your corporate identity and your needs. If you want something pacey, fast-cut and very contemporary they will provide it. But if you need something, more considered - like a documentary - that’s what you’ll get.
You may need a precise, detailed and accurate training film...or you may want to wow your potential customers with something eye-catching and impressive. Our editors are used to providing films cut in a myriad of different styles and aim to achieve the highest standard of production that you would expect to see on your television screen at home.
Camerawork
Our cameras are of the latest professional specification and you’ll find the camera person behind the lens operates to the highest standards. Many of our films are shot in high definition, to give an outstanding visual result. Our camera people are either on our staff or they are top quality contracted freelancers who work for us regularly, in tandem with one of our staff directors. Many of our contract freelancers also work as news and current affairs camera people with the BBC, Sky, ITN or ITV. They are experienced and creative with the instincts to get the best shots to “tell the story”.
Television graphics
We use a dedicated graphics house for all our film effects where they work under the direction of our graphics manager. They produce high quality 2D and 3D animated TV graphics, including 3D modelling animations. Graphics are designed to be an integral part of the film, giving it a shape and individual style. We will usually suggest using your logo and corporate colours within the graphics creative if you wish. At Campaign we set a high standard in our graphics content, giving it great consideration at the start of any project, rather than simply adding the odd graphic as an afterthought. Graphics add an extra dimension to any film, and when they’re creatively designed to fit the project they can turn a good film into an outstanding film.
Radio studios
We can produce audio features and audio news releases for use on broadcast radio, for sell-ins and “down-the-lines” as well as on websites or for exhibition and promotional use. We edit on the industry standard SADIE suite. We also have a sound studio for recording voice-overs and sound tracks. This studio is also used as part of our media training courses to practise dealing with tough radio interviews.
Archive film library
Campaign is one of the few production companies in the UK to run a commercial film archive, and this provides a huge benefit for our clients. With more than 12, 000 tapes and six thousand hours of run-time it is a hugely useful resource of quality pictures from the UK and abroad.
The Campaign film archive is extensive and widely used. We can provide anything from the sun rising over Canary Wharf to the sun setting over the Amazon! Our archive covers the globe with footage from North and South America, India, Australia, Asia and from many European countries including, of course, a vast amount from the UK.
The library also covers a wide range of topics including transport, medical, construction, hospitality, the emergency services, travel, science and engineering as well as a wide range of cityscapes, nature and landscapes in England, Wales and Scotland.
With our particular interest in transport and construction, the library provides a great deal of specialist film which has been acquired over years. You want the Flying Scotsman? We have it. A Spitfire scramble? We have it. Steam trains on the first Underground line? We have them.
For our clients this extensive archive provides very low cost access to extra footage which they may need for their corporate or promotional films. But it is also used widely by other production companies who are keen to buy good, broadcast quality, footage.
This digital archive is housed in our own purpose built library in Marylebone and every shot has been carefully logged on our data base to be accessed quickly and efficiently.
Our library sales are sensibly priced and we license for broadcast as well as corporate and the internet - UK and world-wide use.
Our edit suites, client discussion rooms, meeting rooms and media training areas are modern and comfortable – we want to give you a pleasant experience when you are with us, either as a client taking part in the edit process or attending one of our media training courses.
