Gorilla relocates to new Cardiff Bay HQ
We are excited to announce that we have now officially opened the doors to our brand new facility at the Welsh Government’s flagship creative industries at Porth Teigr, Cardiff Bay.
We have taken over 12,000 square foot of space over three floors at the newly-opened GloWorks building, moving all of our operations and technical departments onto one site in the process. This means we have been able to improve efficiency and communication across our departments, as well develop our client services through extended company working hours and technical services.
Facilities at our new HQ comprise 40 Avid Suites, including the UK’s first licence server and nearly half a petabyte of shared storage, a Baselight Grading suite and 5.1 Protools dubbing studios with ADR/VO. There is also a dedicated QC, file delivery and archive service, specially designed to service the demands of broadcast file delivery.
Gorilla’s MD Richard Moss said: “Moving to this new site has given us the flexibility and room we need to expand in order to service the ever-increasing needs and tight deadlines of our clients. Consolidating our existing businesses and designing from scratch a facility suited to today’s post-production environment was both a wonderful challenge and an opportunity for radical improvements”.
Paul Owen our Director of Operations said: “We have been able to significantly improve our level of services to clients thanks to new technology and staffing organisation. Bringing our bookings and technical departments together in the same accessible, client-friendly space has made a huge difference to daily operations. With our consistently strong team, we continue to offer the very best in post-production services in a much more streamlined and client-orientated environment.”
