In August 2013, the Eurocam Media Centre - formerly known as the Alfacam Studios, changed ownership after the acquisition by the AED group.
On 1 October, Glenn Roggeman officially started phase 1 of his master plan, "the update" of the studios. During the last five months, neither cost nor effort was spared for this prestigious project. Today, many waste containers, renovations and innovations later, determined entrepreneurship already shows its result.
Sixteen studios, of which five have been fully fitted with the most recent lighting-, sound- and video equipment, having as target audience, the TV- and event industry.
Seven Studios were equipped with Technical ceilings (Trusses and Hoists) to enable TV- and Film production companies much faster set building times.
Four Studios are "Black Boxes", to be used and equipped to the specifications of the relative production it is being used for.
Due to the permanently installed technical infrastructure, production companies will need less transport, resulting in much shorter load-in and load-out times. A drastic reduction of energy consumption.
