The pedestal criteria were for ease of movement both vertically and around the studio, making light of our very active camera work.

The performance of the head is complemented by the Quattro L pedestal, which has a pneumatic design to maintain vertical Perfect Balance throughout any of its four stages of elevation. “Because of the length of time the channel is on air, the equipment has to be built to last — and regular servicing is one of our key priorities,” says Freer. “We


were particularly impressed by the support Vinten offers. The company’s engineers efficiently swap out a head within a scheduled two-minute break so it never impacts the live programme.” The GemsTV studio setup also includes a monitor from Autoscript, enabling presenters to look at the exact picture that viewers are seeing onscreen, ensuring they keep the gems in clear shot and not obscured in any way. The monitor also aids in selling, as the producer uses it to inform the presenter about what viewers have bought so they can engage with customers directly. The innovation in the way the channel operates has produced sparkling results for GemsTV. The family-run business behind the channel, The Genuine Gemstone Company, has created direct relationships with gem communities around the world, making its prices competitive in the market. The company’s business potential has received high recognition, and it was ranked as the number one ‘fastest growing private company’ in last year’s Sunday Times listings.
