CH4 | FireCracker TV / Complete Camera Company | "Open House - The Great British Sex Experiment"

This experimental hybrid Reality/Rig show produced by Firecracker Films required guaranteeing the RF coverage of a large country home estate covering several hectares.

The 14 RF Zones enabled the Producers to be able to hear all of the contributors anywhere on site for both the "On Rig" and a large part "Off Rig" sections of the country estate used for the filming. Fibre was used to cover the vast distances which also had the requirement for Producers to talk to 3 presenter using hidden earpieces with high power sends so the gallery could be used to produce the show.

We also designed the system to integrate with all elements of the production by supplying duplicate receivers for all the Self Shooting Camera teams and PSC Sound Recordists on the location.

• Full site recce & client consultation for RF requirements.
