BBC Radio 1Xtra gets new sound from ReelWorld
MediaCityUK based ReelWorld have been responsible for re-imaging the sound of BBC Radio 1Xtra after successfully winning the opportunity earlier this year.
At this year’s prestigious Broadcast Awards, MediaCityUK-based dock10 was announced as the Best Post Production House 2020
The Broadcast Awards highlighted that it has been a busy year for dock10, “posting many of the best-known shows on UK television while undergoing an extensive expansion and playing a key role in transitioning Match Of The Day into an industry-leading virtual-reality studio environment.” They noted how dock10 has grown its team by 10% and have emphasised “promoting internally through staff development.” The award also credited partnerships with the University of Salford and three local colleges to offer work placements and entry roles for those wanting to build a career in post-production.
The judges were struck by the range of shows and the growth of dock10 into a true post-production powerhouse. One judge said: “I’m impressed by the variety of projects – especially the VR studio for Match Of The Day.” Another highlighted our focus on talent development, saying that dock10 provides “genuine paths to entry in a talent-based sector and cares about nurturing talent.”
Over the past year, dock10’s post production facility has worked across every genre, providing a service for all the national broadcasters and receiving accreditation into the Netflix Post Partner Programme. Highlights of 2019 included posting Blue Peter, A Question Of Sport, BBC Sports Personality Of The Year, The Tez O’Clock Show, The £100k Drop and GiggleQuiz. VFX work was also completed on two Netflix dramas, The Stranger and Get Even.
