Several of our shipping container conversion configurations are touring the UK as part of the UEFA European Women's Football Championship pre-tournament roadshow tour.
One of the shipping container conversions touring is the Impact Premium. Labelled "The Studio" the container conversion helps facilitate the BBC with their filming and broadcasting of the event, such as when interviewing Gareth Southgate and Alex Scott on the roadshow opening day at Peace Gardens in Sheffield.
While not being used by the BBC for broadcasting, the multi-deck container conversion allows participants to try their hand at football commentary, giving them a chance to see themselves live on screen.
Shipping container conversions increasing in popularity for video production
Shipping container conversions are becoming more widely used by film crews worldwide to help facilitate their video production.
Last year, our shipping container conversion cluster, Statement, provided the backdrop and central hub to the live video social media broadcasting of the England's team UEFA Euros 2020 Lion’s Den at St George's Park in Staffordshire.
The container structure was branded and had everything on board to accommodate the daily live broadcast on YouTube, Twitch and other social media channels, including a fan wall where the audience live videotelephony into the event and speak directly to the England players.
The benefits of shipping container conversions for your video production
Shipping container conversions are portable, modular and fully customisable, ideal for the filming and broadcasting of televised programmes and the live streaming of events while on location.
Each container configuration can be graphic wrapped and styled to provide the perfect on-brand backdrop. A single container product can make a standalone filming facility, or several container products can create a multi-level studio.
As shipping container conversions are modular structures, they have their own power supply and can be kitted with everything required to facilitate video production.
Further, shipping container conversions are constructed from marine grade steel and are, therefore, wind- and water-proof, touch, durable and impenetrable. This durable structure ensures all camera and editing equipment is safe when in use, locked overnight or in transit.
Alternatives for larger video production events
For larger productions where shipping container conversions may not cut it, we have the Mobile Studio exhibition trailer that has been designed for remote broadcasting, with everything on board to assist with the live filming of events.
The Mobile Studio exhibition trailer has everything onboard to support live and recorded production, including an office with up to six workstations, a coordination room, a make-up room and technical facilities.
The Mobile Studio exhibition trailer has previously helped to facilitate the filming of ITV’s Queen's Platinum Jubilee Celebrations, Man City’s 2021 UEFA Champions League Final and Premier League live coverage, and the famed cycling race, Le Tour de France.
All shipping container conversions for video production for both short- and long-term hire. For more information on any of our customised containers or exhibition trailers for the filming of programmes and events, contact us today on (0161) 821 1010.
