Meet Andy

Originally from the UK, Andy Watkins has made his living as a professional video and television producer and filmmaker for over 35 years, directing and producing advertisements, documentaries, infomercials, promotional and training programs for clients including Rolls Royce, British Aerospace, Lotus Cars, Wycliffe, The God Channel, Regent College, and Focus on the Family. He has also supplied media and worked with independent TV stations in the UK including the BBC.

 

For 25 of these years, Andy owned his own company. It involved corporate and broadcast television which effectively covered all aspects of media production. Andy spent time in Eastern Europe, central Europe, and Africa making programs for conference production and television.

 

Andy has provided valuable input to churches enabling many Christian ministries to succeed in television production operating on terrestrial and satellite platforms across the world. He is knowledgeable, skilled, and experienced, with a passion for teaching and guiding others to enhance their own video production skills.

 

Andy has a solid technical background in Studio design and build, as well as in operating and engineering video/switchers for conference production and live TV. He spent a short time at Bournemouth University (UK) where he was hired to train video production skills to journalists. This equipped him with the skills to help non-profits build the mechanisms and train volunteers to sustain media ministries in their organizations.

 

Covering such a wide gamut, Andy will always be known for his passion for telling story and his calm demeanour in every situation, whether it is as the camera operator, the director, or the video editor. Andy is always looking to help and produce something that is excellent and communicates the right message, on time and within budget.

Overview

The Northwest Studio is a creative space designed and equipped to enable content creation. Whether you wish to rent and use the equipment yourselves or would like our creative team to help produce media for your needs, we are here to help.

 

We have two spaces, a 40ft x 20ft Studio Classroom, and a smaller adjacent Control Room – with video editing equipment using Adobe Premiere (Creative Suite). This room also includes an ad-hoc background for shooting headshots and recording audio podcasts.

 

The Studio Classroom is a multi-functional content creation room that provides not only a comfortable space to sit but is also equipped with fixed cameras and monitors for streaming and recording classes.

The Studio Classroom can then be transformed to shoot video for something completely different as our additional equipment allows us to move lighting, add sound, add a 13ft green screen, and change backgrounds to suit your needs.

 

As well as the technical provision and support listed our team is more than comfortable to offer professional promotional, advertising and documentary video production, all in-house. Both Andy and Leesoo are experienced professionals and can help guide you through the process from “script to screen”.

 

Please come and visit us to see what is possible.
