Field Recording
We can go where you need to go to get the production done, as long as it's not.. well you know. We bring the equipment to get the job done once we're there. And we always bring our most important tool, experience.

We have worked in all kinds of environments and know how to adapt when it is called for. We also strive to be sensitive to the space we are in and the people we are working with. Not everyone is comfortable with a television camera in the neighborhood. We bring a low key approach. We are not there to impress people with how big our camera is. We are there to get great pictures and capture the story that needs to be told.

A little technical talk might be good here. Our primary source format for recording is DVCPro. We use a Panasonic AJ-D400P camera. We can also record in BetaSp or VHS, if that is what you need.

Accompany is located at the Capitol Center for the Arts in Concord-New Hampshire's premier performing arts venue. Our in house capability here at the Capitol Center allows us to direct and mix live up to four cameras in the 1300 seat Chubb Theater and send a closed circuit feed any where in the complex.

Post Production
We work with a state of the art Media100 edit system. We can source from a variety of formats, including DVCPro, BetaSP, S-VHS, DVD, and ¾" Umatic. We have bells and whistles, and know how to use them. But we believe the true mission in post is to complete the story. To many bells can just become a lot of noise that communicate more about the editor than the story that is being edited.  And so we do take a more conservative approach, and that is reflected in how many whistles we have on hand. 

Music
Accompany works with a number of musicians to provide vibrant and appropriate music to any video projectMusic can be the soul of a video project or documentary.  We don't believe in using canned music libraries or generic synthesizer monologues.  Our music is by real musicians playing real instruments.  It is also one of the ways we support fellow local artists.

 

Duplication
We can provide duplication of VHS or DVDs, including packaging and even shrink wrapping. Prices are determined by the length and number of copies you need.

However, if you are looking for numbers over 1,000, we recommend you call a duplication house, as they will no doubt be able to give you a better price.

 

Combined Event Recording & Duplication
Having our office in a performing arts center has lead us into doing event recording such as dance recitals, theater productions, sporting events, and whatever.  We offer a combined Event Recording and Duplication service.  Generally this is done with a single camera to keep cost down.  Depending on the length of the event we are recording, we charge a flat per tape or DVD rate (Usually $20-$25), with no other charge involved.  There is a 20 tape minimum per event.  And for an added charge we will ship the tapes as well. 

Our turn around time is unmatched.  Most events that we record will have the tapes shipped within a week or less.
Consultation, Research and Writing
We don't just know the technology, we also know how to research and write the story.  We can help craft your message for video.  We can do the research and the writing.  We work with you to get the story right. 

If you would like to see samples of our work, please give us a call at 1-800-545-3130, or use the Contact Us form.
