CueBox OPENS IN MANCHESTER

On the 1st February 2009 Cuebox is opening its third satellite office, in Manchester.

This brings a much needed local autocue supplier into the Manchester area, an area of growing importance for film television and conference production. Cuebox will be offering a full range of prompting systems with free delivery within 15 miles of the city centre, giving a fantastic saving to all our clients.

CueBox has been expanding steadily since it's birth just over 11 years ago and with a growing number of clients in the Manchester area already, it made sense to have another base of operations there.

Our Manchester operation will be headed up by Fiona Adams

All enquiries will continue to be handled through our central contact numbers.

CueBox retained by Market Kitchen for third year

UKTV Food has re-commissioned Market Kitchen produced by Optomen Television for a third year and Cuebox will once again be part of the team.

Cuebox has been involved with this project since it's conception in 2007 designing and installing prompting system for three hand held cameras. Since then we have provided a dedicated team of technicians to run our systems on the show and support the production team.

CueBox OPENS IN CARDIFF

On the 1st July 2008 Cuebox continues it's expansion with a second satellite office, in central Cardiff.

Our Cardiff operation will be working out of Culverhouse Cross - home to ITV in Wales. Cuebox will be the first dedicated prompting company in Wales offering it's usual wide variety of customised equipment to our clients in Wales along with a dedicated team of technicians including Welsh speakers.

CueBox has been expanding steadily since it's birth just over 10 years ago and since the opening of the Bristol office last year has taken on many new clients in Wales, there was also an increasing demand for Welsh speaking operators for much of our work for S4C so it made sense to set up a more local office supported by multilingual technicians

.Head of operations Cardiff is Louise Jones.

All enquiries will continue to be handled through our central contact numbers.

CueBox delivers winning words for Sochi 2014 Olympic bid

Over the past month CueBox has been involved in the making of the films that were shown this week in Guatemala and formed part of the winning presentation securing the 2014 Olympic Winter Games for Sochi in Russia

As Sochi is now the successful winner of the bid cuebox is able to release information about this exciting project which has had to be kept under wraps until yesterday's decision by the IOC.

It all started with a phone call one Thursday afternoon from the fantastic production company New Moon - also behind the successful London 2012 bid - requiring us to be available to leave for Russia early on the Saturday and begin filming on the Sunday - it took quite a bit of juggling to pull off Carnets and visas at such short notice but we pulled out all the stops to do it and Ros the founder and owner of cuebox flew out and joined the rest of the team in Sochi on Saturday evening.

Filming took place in a variety of outdoor locations in Russia including the mountains of Krasnya Polyana and along the coast of the Black Sea and included a somewhat chilly day spent on the ice filming speed skating and curling amongst other events.

With the challenges of operating in sometimes slightly hostile weather conditions and often in extremely bright sunlight the rugged outdoor battery operated kit was often pushed close to its limits but performed brilliantly, proving fantastically flexible in the many different shooting scenarios.

cuebox was again available and ready to help back in the UK assisting in the preliminary rehearsals for the presentation which took place in Guatemala this week (the onsite support was provided to all the bid teams by the IOC itself ensuring absolute fairness of process)

CueBox is honoured to have been involved in such an exciting project and wish Dimitry and the rest of the Sochi Olympic Winter Games Team all the best for the future and for the games in 2014

CueBox OPENS IN BRISTOL

On the 1st February 2007 Cuebox is opening its first satellite office, in central Bristol.

This brings a much needed local autocue supplier into the Bristol area, an important region for film television and conference production. Cuebox will be offering a full range of prompting systems with free delivery within 15 miles of the city centre, giving a fantastic saving to all our clients.

CueBox has been expanding steadily since it's birth just over 9 years ago and with many clients in the Bristol area already, it made sense to have another base of operations there.

Ros will be heading up operations in Bristol while Vikki continues her excellent management of the London business. All enquiries will continue to be handled through our central contact numbers.
