TESTIMONIALS

Rick Wakeman –
Recording / Live filming of the ‘Grand Piano Tour’ 2006 / Live OB performance for Planet Rock Radio / Filming for DVD extras.

T-Stage has got everything right as far as I'm
concerned. It's the right size, has the right equipment and facilities plus it's in a great location and has all the right people in every area imaginable...but most importantly, you always end up with the right results. Typhoo may well claim to have put the "T" in Britain, but T-Stage truly puts the "Class" in "Classic". – Rick Wakeman

Greg Lake –
Full production of ‘Greg Lake Live at T Stage’ DVD 2005.

In my experience Classic T Stage is the best facility I have yet come across for recording and filming live music. The equipment is all state of the art and the people at Classic are both extremely pleasant and very experienced. From the filming of entire live concerts for DVD to the capturing of intimate performances you will be hard put to find a better facility anywhere. - Greg Lake

Steve Howe - YES, ASIA and solo artist –
Full production of ‘Remedy Live’ DVD 2005

I am currently using the T Stage editing facilities for the second time to produce a DVD featuring my “one - man show "tours, to date. Before this, "Remedy Live" DVD was shot by Classic Pictures, and then the picture and sound were edited and finalized at T Stage facilities. There can be no doubt that everyone there, works well as a team. They all help to make the experience enjoyable and efficient. Audio and picture are given equal importance which is the key to a well finished off project. Clients that return to work at T Stage will endorse the fact that working together, forms a creative relationship which enhances the whole production. - Steve Howe

Maria Slough, Managing Director Deepwater Films –
Full production of ‘The Magic of Dance’ DVD 2006 and Jim Davidson edit/sound and OB for ‘Live Show’ 2006.

"As an independent producer I have worked with Classic Pictures on many occasions over the last five years. They provide a one stop service that is second to none. Based at Shepperton Film Studios their location is ideal, none of the hassle of parking in London but yet you are only 20 minutes from Hammersmith. I have used their facilities on T stage for photo shoots, filming and most recently recording a music demo for an up and coming vocalist. More recently we have used their OB facilities which include a fully equipped scanner and sound truck for recording Jim Davidson's new DVD for Universal Pictures, and for post production the edit suites at Classic are always my first port of call. All of this and the wonderful atmosphere and professional attitude from all the staff led by Lyn Beardsall and Robert Garofalo makes working with Classic Pictures a hugely enjoyable experience." – Maria Slough (MD, Deepwater Films)

The Classic T Stage was really great. Great lighting, plenty of space and most importantly a well stocked bar!! I had great fun there and the staff couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. The perfect place to film a video or commercial. - Bernie Nolan.x
