Backstage at Omni Media

 

More Behind the Scenes

Want to know what really goes on behind the scenes here at Omni Media?
Peter is the big guy heading up the team. A gent with a loud, ‘radio announcers’ voice. Well hey, he was one once. Peter still does voice-overs. But mostly he shoots and directs for clients.

 



Paul is the chief editor. Ask Paul how many years he has been with Omni and he will tell you – “Maybe too many, but I cannot let go having this much fun!”
Derek takes charge of Edit Suite A. Now with his Apple Certification, he has a mastery of Final Cut like few others. He came to Omni Media because he likes Bracken our mascot dog. Go figure! Great place to work....the dog?
Joyce is our sales lady with the Scots accent. Yes the brogue is real. She hails from the land of haggis and bagpipes and acquired her sales skills when, as only a bonnie wee lass, she could never say no, only ‘Aye’.
Cameron Kilcar handles location audio. “Cammie” learned the hard way. We taught him!
Sean Maloney shoots and lights. His favourite lamp is the Force Four. He likes to feel the force, the Lowels and the Arris. But only when they are cool, not hot! Seamus has 20 years at the game.
Lesha takes care of the numbers. Need a penny… take a penny… but not from Lesha! She has them all accounted for.


 


Starlene replicates the videos for customers. She has ‘that name’ – Starlene. She answers to “Star” and “Hey you”! Starlene is wonderful at fixing computers for us. A little whack on the motherboard says she and good as new.
The HD video meister of the team is Rhydon. Peter and Rhydon spent 3 weeks on the road across Canada lensing a spot for YD Canada. Rhydon lost track of the days after the first flight. But he sure can shoot!
Our night time editor is Erica. She is the gal that puts the lights on when the rest of us are tucked in! She also keeps customers smilin', cuz she makes deadlines!
Jim is our technical guru for webcasting. He assures the data rates are flowing like Niagara for a seamless webcast.
