Jext Demonstration Video
‘Jext’ is short demonstration video providing training to healthcare professionals on the correct use of an ‘adrenaline auto-injector’ for the emergency treatment of anaphylaxis or anaphylactic reaction. After watching this video healthcare professionals are able to gain a certificate on how to correctly demonstrate this device to their patients and colleges.
We worked with White Communications who provided us with the script. We prepared all the relevant material to deliver a clear and succinct video to complement the presentation. We filmed all the close-ups in our studio, then added bullet points, still images, and, text on top of the footage.
Due to the nature of this device, clear and direct instructions on how to confidently recognise symptoms and follow all the necessary procedures when administering intramuscular adrenaline were key. Some careful editing of the narration was applied to ensure the instructions conformed to their guidelines.
Some custom images also helped sections of the video to flow nicely and deliver the key points on instructions. The video can be found at Jext.co.uk where they have posted it on the page for healthcare professionals.

Studio in action – Fred Dinenage with Talent South
Did you know that Agencies and Producers in the South of England use Focus studios in Southampton?
Everything you need to make great audio and video content is right here – no need to travel to London. Great news for Clients, Talent, and Budgets.
But don’t take our word for it! Just this week Fred Dinenage was in the studio, recording Voiceovers for Fred Dinenage’s Murder Casebook which Talent South are producing for the Crime and Investigation Network. Fred’s links were recorded direct to our SADiE audio workstation, and edited right away. From start to finish the session took less than 2 hours, far less time than it would have taken to commute to London and back …
Dervla Kirwan has been in to record Commercial Voiceovers for Agencies in London and Dublin … Louise Minchin and Nick Knowles recorded Voiceovers here for BBC1′s ‘Real Rescues’ for Topical Television … and Chris Packham pops in every now and then.
Our studio is great for Voiceovers, Interviews or as a TV Presentation Studio. It has a lighting grid and green or blue screen backgrounds for video work, and with ISDN audio links to connect with Studios, Clients and Voices worldwide. Clients can record to picture, syncing with tape or video files, we ‘top and tail’ all audio files so they can be used directly in an edit. We usually deliver final audio files by email or FTP.

CASEBOOK: Voices in the Studio …
It was another busy week in the studio …
Dervla Kirwan returned for another helping of M&S Foods over ISDN to Grand Central in London. Dervla is famous for roles in British television shows such as Ballykissangel, Goodnight Sweetheart, and the Doctor Who Christmas special!
Then we had Jack McKenzie recording a promotion relating to next year’s 150th Open Golf Championship at St Andrews. Jack gave us his mellifluous Scots and he was directed remotely by the client in the US. Our thanks to Wessex Translations, for whom we’ve produced many similar multi-lingual projects. The transition from US English to Scots still presents a few linguistic challenges!
Jack is a Scot from Edinburgh who was Cal Alder in ‘The Empire Strikes Back‘. He’s been ‘murdurred’ three times in ‘Taggart’, and appeared in ‘Gandhi’, ‘A Bridge too Far’, ‘Secret Army’, ‘Sweeney’, ‘The Professionals’, ‘Blake’s 7′, ‘Quiller’, ‘Emmerdale’, ‘Heartbeat’, ‘Sharpe’, ‘The End of the Affair’ … whew! Oh – ask him how he helped Mickey Rooney to get to meet the Queen … !
Meanwhile in our London ISDN studio, Soundtracks, Martin Glynn Murray delivered his gentle Welsh English for a project linked to the Ryder Cup, just held at the Celtic Manor Resort. Again it was directed from the US. Tracks were finished in our sound studio and uploaded via our client area to a video suite in the US.
Martin Glyn Murray appeared in ‘A Very Social Secretary‘, ‘Heartbeat’, ‘Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life’, ’Captain Corelli’s Mandolin’, and ‘Enigma’.
