HDSTUDIOS OPENS LARGER C STAGE

FARMINGTON HILLS, MI - HDStudios, a division of Grace & Wild, has opened its new C-Stage for live broadcast production at the company's campus in Farmington Hills. The C-Stage, which is primarily used for live shots, stand-ups and interviews, has been relocated to a larger, more spacious room next door to the company's popular B-Stage.

"With the increase in live broadcast production at our studios in Farmington Hills and Southfield, we felt it was time to give our C-Stage a facelift," explains Robin Tracey, executive producer, production services for HDStudios. "The new stage is roomier and more comfortable for our production clients. We've also taken the opportunity to add the latest technology to our lighting, IFB system and multi-cam capabilities."

Amenities include an adjoining control room for production coordinators and video technicians, a new IFB audio system, a fixed lighting grid, multiple scenic backdrops, inbound/outbound fiber connectivity, wireless Internet and a new greenroom.
