most successful trainers of television presenters in the world,
with clients in 14 different countries
We have an unparalleled, independently
confirmed success rate (see

300 previously novice presenters have found success on-screen,
with many of them now household names
Were the broadcasters
favourite Weve trained presenters for most of the main broadcasters,
including the BBC. In addition, weve provided our services
on behalf of over 30 independent production companies as well
as some of the industrys top celebrity, theatrical and presenter
agencies
Were the acknowledged
leaders in this speciality Weve been the subject of two BBC, fly-on-the-wall
documentaries as well as being featured in programmes from ITVs,
Fame School to Channel 4s, The
Big Breakfast. Our work has also prompted features in
over 30 newspapers and magazines, including The Daily
Mail, The Daily Telegraph and The
Sunday Times
Our experience is broad Were adept and experienced at successfully coaching
presenters with a broad range of backgrounds - from absolute broadcasting
virgins to experienced and established names. And
our work also encompasses related fields - from coaching a company
chairman called upon to front a corporate video to guiding a new
pop group through an onslaught of media appearances
Were experts in spoken
communication skills Our related work includes coaching individuals and companies
in cutting-edge communication techniques from a psychological
perspective - from sales skills to influencing techniques; self-confidence-building
to establishing awesome rapport
We produce compelling, unique
personalities - not clones We constantly challenge the standard lists of dos
and donts which suggest that theres only one
way to make a successful presentation. Unlike some, we dont
show people how to put on an act. Instead, our aim
is to capitalise on the reason they were hired in the first place
- their unique personalities and skills. We clearly show our clients
how to successfully transfer their off-screen persona to the television
or video screen, without the typical wooden image
that commonly accompanies a nervous presenter who feels like theyre
on public show
Were technical experts Were fully conversant and proficient in the technical
aspects of a presenters role and how it integrates into
different broadcasting environments. As experienced producers
and almost weekly users of prestigious broadcast facilities, weve
built up a unique perspective from both sides of the camera. From
coaching in the use of talkback to studio discipline; dealing
with a live breakdown to superb interview technique
Were flexible in delivery From a two-hour intensive coaching session to a course
lasting several days. We can bring a single camera to a location
or our own, broadcast-quality multi-camera portable
production unit. We can work on-site at the clients
existing facilities or take advantage of our close relationship
- and buying power - with a variety of studio venues
