Documentary specialist focuses on remote working

Documentary specialist post house Remote Post has opened a new facility in Bloomsbury, London.

The boutique post house focuses on remote working, and offers a number of services to this end, such as Hybrid, which allows filmmakers to book edit suites as and when they need them; Remote Edit, which is completed completely remotely; and Remote Assist, where productions can book a dedicated assistant editor based at the facility.

The latter has bonuses for edit support staff, allowing them to gain assistant editor credits and they can be trained to be assistant editors by Remote Post.

Ash Jenkins, who started his career working on Iraq war film Battle For Haditha with acclaimed director Nick Broomfield before formerly founding and running Roundtable Films post facility and working as a producer, founded Remote Post and is now CEO.

Jenkins said: “Production companies have many editors working remotely, so by building a boutique post house with a small footprint that offers remote editing with hybrid services on an ad hoc basis, we can offer extreme value when it comes to the rates of these services.”

The Bloomsbury facility has four offline, or hybrid, suites, 15 remote edit workstations, and one colour grading suite, which has DaVinci Resolve up to 6k monitoring and is fitted with an AKA Design ProCreate sit-stand desk.

All edit workstations come with a choice of AVID Media Composer or Adobe Premiere, while the offline/hybrid suites are fitted with AKA Design ProView sit-stand desks.
