Services

Clients include

I can provide a range of additional CAD related services for the entertainment industry using AutoCAD as well as many years production experience

Draughting Services

Often drawings are needed quickly or cannot be provided in house, in time or in the right format. I can provide draughting services as required; groundplans, technical drawings, LX Plots etc. Previous clients include Stage Technologies and the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh

Charges are based on an hourly rate and drawings can be submitted in a variety of formats; including paper!

Surveying Services

How confident are you about your building’s drawings? Or those of buildings you are going into? Many groundplans are copies of paper copies or architects intentions; not ‘as built’ by the contractors.

I can provide a surveying service to ensure your drawings are accurate and presented clearly to any users. Previous clients include The Watermill Theatre in Newbury

Again charges are hourly based and drawings can be created in any format required by the venue.

Consultancy Services

People often rush into the purchase of CAD systems without regard to how they will use it, who will use it and what changes it will bring.THis often leads to an expensive investment being under utilised or not used at all

Areas covered include:

Hardware and infrastructure issues
Licensing issues
User skills levels and training requirements
Implementation of CAD standards and ways of working
Advice on best practice
Advice on file exchange protocols
Advice on retaining intellectual property whilst distributing drawings externally
Production team collaboration systems
