Westminster Live

ONE-STOP-SHOP STUDIO AND LIVE SHOT FACILITIES

Westminster Live is a one-stop-shop, 24/7 broadcasting facility comprising 3 studios, live external stand up positions, crewing, editing and tape feed facilities. We also offer media training, webcasts and fibre and satellite transmissions.
We have a strong international reputation, working with clients from all over the world as well as clients from the UK and Ireland.

Riverside Position
Our outside live stand up position right on the banks of the River Thames offers an iconic view of parliament from street level. It includes:

• HD options
• Local and international connectivity
• IFB & 4-Wire PL circuits provided from lines
• Up to 32A mains electricity

The position is located just 200 meters from our main facility so our green room and newsroom facilities are close at hand.

Single and Multi-camera Studios
We have three studios, two offering a live view of the Houses of Parliament and a third offering a chroma key alternative. From down-the-line interviews to larger multi-camera jobs we are able to cater for your needs. These can be recorded directly to tape or via our many transmission paths through BT, the FiNE network or via satellite or the web.

Crewing and Editing
When you need to get straight to the heart of the story we can provide one or two-person crews to shoot, edit and transmit your package all from our central London location. Shooting on PDW-700 XDCAM or DSR-450WSP DVCAM cameras, we offer both HD and SD options.

Production Facilities
In addition to the studios we offer a full one-stop-shop service. Whether you require crews and editing, the facilities to feed out material, record news feeds, or a space to work, write your scripts or research the breaking news, we can provide for all your needs.
