Fountain Studios Completes Full HD Upgrade With Fineline Media Finance

Fineline Media Finance has assisted The Foundation Studios with the final stage of its HD facilities upgrade, with the purchase of a second Sony MVS studio mixer.
The Fountain Studios, home to The X Factor, Britain's Got Talent and Penn & Teller: Fool Us, has undertaken a complete studio upgrade over the last couple of years in response to ever-increasing demand for HD facilities.
The installation of the new Sony HD vision mixer for the studio gallery completes the final phase, while this particular model also provides the studio with an element of future-proofing for 3D production. The installation was achieved with no break to the studio schedule.
Mariana Spater, Managing Director, The Fountain Studios, said: "We chose Fineline to assist us with this purchase due to their close association with Sony. They certainly have good industry knowledge, and this combined with their competitive rates made them attractive for this final stage of our upgrade. Duncan Payne was very efficient and made the whole transaction very smooth."
Gareth Wilding, Sales and Marketing Director, Fineline, said: "The completion of The Fountain Studios' HD upgrade makes it one of the best equipped studios in the UK. We are delighted have helped them to complete this installation."
