Why choose AVsupport?
AVsupport is a One-Man-Band, and thus has hardly any overheads: You don't pay for a landmark office in town or production vehicle with stickers, there is no Virtual Concierge Service, Secretary, Production Assistant or Editor to pay wages to. You don't pay for the time when people sit around and drink coffee or check their facebook. You pay the hours worked on your job, fair and simple.
I understand your time is valuable. Smarter, faster workflows, resourcefulness and immediate access to optimized tools of trade are key to getting the best possible outcomes, so that the focus can remain on delivering quality content effectively whilst providing choice, and maintaining control.
Sometimes running into a unexpected 'sticky situation' on set can be a major money burner. AVsupport has worked in the Television industry for over 22 years in vastly different environments and circumstances, including full time employments with major broadcasters like Channel 9 Perth and the ABC Darwin, absorbing information from different industry specialists on a daily basis. I have been in many different unexpected situations and have learnt from those experiences.
I am a part-geek part-creative hybrid. I love technology, workflows & interacting with developers. I like keeping abreast of latest trade shows, announcements and reviews. AVsupport regularly reinvests in new cutting edge technologies and smart affordable tools that can often achieve comparable results to expensive 'prestige cine' cameras and accessories. Now you too can get access to 'Steadycam', '4K' and 'Drone' vision, without paying a substantial premium, and only as you need it.
Unsure how it's gonna turn out? First time? Random approach?I can make the workflow transparent and offer guidance through the process, so you know how and why things will work, even if you might not be familiar with the production process. This minimises stress and confusion, and adds to efficiency, factual correctness and productivity, so you can focus on the things you need to. It also helps you to avoid hidden charges elsewhere or surprises about exclusions.
All the batteries I use for the Mixer, radio mics, drone, cameras, lights are rechargeable. OH&S legislation is mandatory and I take it seriously. A safe workplace is a happy workplace, and I don't want to expose neither myself nor anybody else to risk of harm, due to either unsafe or untidy work practices, lacking equipment maintenance or fatigue. AVsupport is actively supporting local Production, and dedicated to developing a sustainable Film Industry in Newcastle and the Hunter.
