We’ve recently finished the creation of a gorgeous community health centres website, Nuffield Health Practice. We agreed on creating a fresh, modern website that was HTML5 & W3C compliant as well as being mobile friendly. The website was built using Joomla CMS / PHP which was decided after agreeing to the finalised template design and website functionality.

We’ve just invested in a brand new lightweight SWIT Flexi Panel, they will be very useful on shoots where we don’t have any transport taking our kit to the venue. The Flexi Panel rolls up and fits inside a small tube making it extremely portable, if we were to take our Dedo Lights instead, they require a large case along with lighting stands.

After a jam-packed few months of preparation, we’re finally kitted out to take on our three overlapping jobs in November! We’ve had all of our kit being used on the jobs out, tried and tested; we also invested in our fourth Blackmagic 4K Video Assist Monitor.

As you well may know, we’ve got an extremely busy upcoming November here at Cypher Media; with four simultaneous jobs occurring in Nice and London, with two jobs one-after-the-other in Prague. We’ll have Cypher crew dotted around each event; Jake will be in London, Chris will be in Nice and Adrian will be in Prague.

Chris has been busy this week after jetting off to Amsterdam; he’s been recording interviews at the Sheraton Hotel, Schipol for our upcoming Global Tax Symposium being held in Prague.

Next month Stuart will be attending an IOSH course; IOSH stands for the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health. It is a three-day course that will cover working safely and managing safely. Working safely is aimed at all employees; this will cover the essentials of health and safety in the workplace. Managing safely, which is aimed at managers, supervisors and team leaders, will give them the skills and knowledge to manage health and safety within teams.

After a short rest period, we’re preparing ourselves for a busy November! We have three overlapping jobs that all kick off on the same day! We’ll be working simultaneously in Prague, Nice and London; they should really test our limits!

We’ve taken the quieter part of the year to sit down and think about how we can expand our array of equipment; after getting rid of our older Mac we invested in a brand new 15” MacBook Pro.

It’s that time again. Our yearly Portable Appliance Test, or PAT test, was carried out yesterday. The PAT test ensures none of our equipment may be dangerous to work with, and it is all inside the health and safety guidelines.

Since July of 2017 we’ve been working very hard on a programme that has been tried and tested throughout the duration of this, and last year. Cypher Media’s POD, or Programmable Onsite Display, is a real-time timetable system used for creating and managing event schedules.
