    ❓Q: What’s 80six’s Formula for Large-Scale, High-Profile Live Events? ↓ 💬 A: Premium Specialised Video Solutions + Reliability + Agility + Collaborative Spirit + A Lot of Client Care. Legends power our LIVE division: Ben Annibal, one of the industry’s most loved project managers; Robin Wain, who brings over 30 years of live experience with artists such as U2, Jay Z and Madonna; and Scott Flood, whose global outreach keeps us on the pulse of what’s next in live entertainment. In addition, our studio is a gem on the concert touring market! Superior to warehouse-style rehearsing spaces, it provides a versatile space where artists can perfect their performances pre-tour. We don’t like blowing our own trumpet, so please read the reviews below to hear what others say. 📧 If you have a show in mind, contact us at info@80-six.com! ↓ Winner – Best Screen Supplier 2024 / Festival Supplier Awards 2024 “You can tell this contractor is a leader within its sector. Their flexibility and creativity during the build phase were really impressive, and they clearly go above and beyond for clients.” ↓ Ryan Esson – Event Producer / GoTo Live - Event Specialists “I genuinely wish more suppliers worked the same way as 80six, as my job would be much easier. This is now the second year we have engaged 80six to deliver the video aspect of the show production for Manchester Pride and they are a dream supplier to work with. Everything from quoting and initial planning to on-site delivery is smooth, efficient and professional." ↓ Frankie Tee – Director at EnTEEtainment Ltd / BBC Radio 2 in the Park 2023 “The team is a joy to work with and really works with you as part of a team effort. They quietly get on with it and any production manager can have complete trust in leaving them to deliver what they do best.” #80six #concerttouring #eventprofs #outdoorevents #festivalproduction #technicalproduction #liveevents #liveentertainment #productionstudio #productionrehearsals

    🏳️🌈 As Pride Month is coming to a close, we remain dedicated to celebrating the unique beauty of every individual by constantly committing to inclusion. 🏳️🌈   This month, we've focused on increasing internal discussions about LGBTIQA+ issues and actively participating in local outreach.    Our renewed DEI policy strengthens our commitment to creating a safe, diverse, and empowering workplace. We aim to be a ‘home’ where diversity is celebrated and individuals feel empowered to bring their whole selves to work.   To combat the ongoing discrimination and marginalization in our society, we’ve taken action to help create safer spaces for LGBTIQA+ members of all ages in our local community. We're excited to support and sponsor the first edition of Windsor Pride and be involved in a local outreach campaign launching in mid-September. More details will follow shortly.   Diversity is everybody’s strength — let’s celebrate and embrace it with kindness! 💙 💚 💛 Happy Pride everyone! 💙 💚 💛 #pridemonth #inclusion #LGBTIQA+ #loveislove

    🎉🥳 Join us in congratulating our Warehouse Operative Harris Shaikh for 1 year at 80six! 🎉🥳 A TV production graduate, Harris joined us last year, drawn by his passion for the industries we work in. Since then, he has been crucial in numerous projects, demonstrating steadfast dedication. "What I enjoy the most is the hands-on aspect of my job, especially when I'm in the studio helping install LED setups for numerous clients like Netflix or artists rehearsing for Glastonbury." When asked to describe 80six in three words, Harris responded, "nice family environment." Fumu Banda, Warehouse Manager, shares: "Harris is a very happy guy, always smiling, and is known for his interesting music choices. He is constantly eager to learn new things and has an exceptional talent for analyzing and appreciating others' work, deepening his understanding of video technologies." Outside of work, he's an avid gig-goer, attending one to two weekly shows at smaller venues in London, with the Windmill in Brixton being his favourite spot. 👏🏼 Nice one, Harris, great to have you on the team, and we look forward to many more years ahead. 👏🏼 #Team80six #warehouseoperations #technicalproduction #eventprofsuk #studio #workmilestone

    🎉 We're thrilled that our Projects Coordinator Abigail Clarke has been shortlisted for the Young Person of the Year Award at the RTS TECHNOLOGY CENTRE Awards 2024! 🎉   Abi receives this nomination for her dedication and critical input in supporting our productions & logistics and for her skill at coordinating studio shoots, ensuring the client, crew and everyone on set are always happy. This year, she has successfully acted as the lead for our studio projects while our studio manager Natasha 'enjoys' maternity leave, coordinating various studio shoots for HETV with incoming crews of up to 120 people.    Even during our first meeting, we were impressed by Abi's level-headed approach and inner confidence given her age; as co-founder Jack James says, "She carries herself with a level of confidence beyond her years."   Abi is really passionate about film, TV and diversity in the industry. She graduated from Birmingham University in 2020 with a dissertation focused on the power and agency of women in the film industry during the Me-Too movement.   🙌🏼 Congratulations Abi, you're an absolute star! 🙌🏼 We're looking forward to the awards ceremony on the 3rd July!   Thanks to Royal Television Society and the judges for this incredible nomination: Jonathan Chappell-Seetayah, Polly Hickling, Carrie Wootten, Liz Clarke, Jahangir Shah, Peter Smith #RTS #youngpersonoftheyear #filmandtv #virtualproduction #virtualproductiostudio #TVproduction #mediaproduction #HETV
