Richmond Studios' DVD department specializes in high-quality music releases, and also produces film, drama and promotional DVDs. The team can look after the entire DVD production process as well as CD-ROM authoring and preparation of content for web-streaming. Richmond Studios uses Sonic Creator DVD systems in conjunction with their on-line AVID suite, 5.1 audio suite and rapidly-expanding design department to produce high-end DVD releases.
Current DVD design and authoring projects include international releases of Simply Red's Live In Sicily and Cirque du Soleil's latest DVD production from Orlando, La Nouba, directed by David Mallet. For both of these, Richmond Studios produced the soundtrack from recording through Dolby and DTS encoding.
Richmond founder Toby Alington says: "We're thrilled that Mandy has chosen to join our growing team, as she is very much at the top of her profession. She brings a solid knowledge of DVD authoring, and a commitment to quality and deadlines which are all part of the Richmond Studios ethic." Mandy comments: "It's a privilege to be joining such a great team and to be given the opportunity to work on such exciting, high profile projects."
