Decode Relocates As 3D Business Grows

3D specialist rental/sales house Decode has relocated to larger premises.
Samuel Martin, Decode Managing Director, commented: "Decode 2D and 3D rental and sales business grew to a point where the current premises were just not big enough to house the total operation. 3D production in particular is ramping up. I saw it coming so have been planning the move and looking for suitable premises for some time now.
"I decided to relocate the business from our original base in Hammersmith to Wimbledon Studios, which have been totally refurbished after The Bill production team moved out."
Being within the Studios complex brings us many advantages, including potential business opportunities from high end film and television clients already there, high security, which is important for us and above all, room to expand our business further for years to come.
"It has been a massive effort to prepare the new premises - building works, branding colours, network setups, servers, internet, phones, security, alaems, signage and so on, but also to plan the move so that business would move smoothly across from the old site to the new one on the day - I had my fingers firmly crossed, and in the event, the planning paid off."
In the new site Decode enjoys 6000 sq feet of rental facilities, test rooms, production offices, edit suites, meeting rooms, a 3D screening room and a 3D village.
The 3D village has 3D rigs and monitors permanently set up for tests in a number of Decode's test rooms. There is a 3D viewing/screening room, and also edit suites for reviewing 3Dfootage, either from jobs or tests, for clients' decisions. The idea is to provide a one-stop shop 3D solution for customers so they can test anything they wish, anytime within the pre-production process and do it in the perfect environment.
