ENVY Relocates Shortform Facility

News Image
UK post-production house ENVY has relocated its shortform department to a new facility on Mortimer Street. The new office allows the company to accommodate its expanding advertising arm. The relocation means that, like its broadcast operation, all of ENVY's advertising operations are now located in one facility.

Accommodating 32 suites which are home to everything from offline to VFX to Dolby Atmos, the new office is close to ENVY's Rathbone Place headquarters.

The ground floor of the facility hosts a number of meeting rooms, the production team, and a bar. The floors above house a Baselight grading suite, Baselight Assist and five Flame Premium suites, plus the expanded VFX Studio support area, which accommodates up to 18 artists using Flare, Nuke, Maya, After Effects and Cinema4D.

Natascha Cadle, ENVY's Facility Director, said: "We knew we'd found the perfect building when we came across Mortimer Street. It was in a terrible state but I saw the potential. It's got a fabulous art-deco style exterior like the ones you see in Miami and I suppose that's where my inspiration came from. I'm not an 'official' interior designer but I wanted people to feel comfortable and create a 'non-office' environment that encourages creativity."

Sian Hagan, Head of ENVY Advertising, added: "Finding Mortimer Street was brilliant – it needed a lot of work to change it into what it is now, but it was worth the effort. It's a spacious feeling home for my team, with great ceiling height and really good looking rooms. Clients love having a single building for all their shortform and advertising work."

Daniel Sassen, Head of Technical Services, commented: "The move has been an exciting opportunity to completely revamp our internal systems. Mortimer Street is now equipped with three new Pro Tools sound studios each with a VO booth, Avid S6 mixing desk and DAD AX32 routing systems which give us the ultimate in flexibility for setups and workflow."
