about us

OutPost is now over 20 years old – we have a small team of very knowledgeable and talented post production experts used to working at the cutting edge of technology.

We pride ourselves on providing cost effective innovative solutions to complex post production projects. Our size means we have all the equipment needed to finish your project and can still offer a dedicated personal service.

We are the closest regional post production facility to London as we are less than 100 yards outside the M25, which is important if you need to fulfil the Ofcom regional requirements
