What Is This Service?
A Done-for-You In-House Studio Setup
Launch My Podcast Studio by NextMedia London helps businesses turn an existing room into a practical recording environment without having to plan every technical detail themselves.
We assess the space, design the setup around the way you intend to record, recommend suitable equipment, install and configure the agreed system, test the workflow and train your team.
Suitable projects may include audio podcasts, multi-camera video podcasts, founder videos, interviews and internal business content.
THIS IS
A hands-on service that brings the room, equipment, recording positions, lighting and workflow together. The aim is to leave you with an operational studio in your own space and a team that can confidently run it.
THIS IS NOT
- Equipment retail or affiliate links to shopping products.
- A one-off written consultation with no installation work.
- Generic DIY advice recycled from a blog post.
- Ordinary studio hire at our Bermondsey location.
- Significant structural, electrical or building work.
- Specialist acoustic construction without a separately agreed scope.
Major construction and specialist acoustic work may require separate scoping and contractor costs.
Spaces
You May Already Have the Room
You don’t necessarily need a purpose-built studio. We work with the space you already have rather than automatically recommending a complete rebuild. We assess the room before suggesting changes.
01
Reconfigure an existing lounge or home space into a two-person conversation setup.
02
Turn an underused office meeting room into a repeatable interview and company-content environment.
03
Create a compact, controlled setup for founder or executive thought-leadership video.
04
Plan a home podcast setup inside a spare bedroom, home office or suitable workspace.
05
Create a repeatable product and user-generated-content area for retail and ecommerce teams.
06
Establish a dedicated recording zone inside a larger commercial or creator workspace.
07
Set up a space for an agency's own team and client content.
08
Improve equipment layout or workflow instead of automatically starting again.
09
Build a reliable recording environment for consistent content creation.
Suitability depends on room conditions, background noise, layout, intended content and recording requirements.
What’s Included in the Service?
What's Included in the Setup Fee
01
Review the room size, layout, intended content, recording positions, noise, acoustic issues, backgrounds, power, connectivity, and existing equipment.
02
Plan presenter and guest positions, camera positions, microphone setup, lighting, background, monitoring, and recording workflow.
03
Recommend suitable equipment based on your use case, room, budget, number of participants, cameras, and expected output.
04
You can buy directly, or we can help source and procure agreed equipment at the agreed supplier cost, with no separate procurement markup under this service.
05
Set up the agreed cameras, microphones, audio equipment, lighting, stands, cabling, and monitoring and recording equipment.
06
Test the recording workflow end to end before handover.
07
Train the person or team who will use the studio day-to-day.
08
Establish a repeatable process for recording, saving, uploading, editing, and delivering files.
09
If you already have equipment and a space that isn't working, we can assess how to improve or reconfigure it rather than replace everything.
Scope boundary: Major electrical work, construction, structural alterations, specialist acoustic construction and extensive furniture manufacture are not automatically included. These may require a separate scope and contractor costs. We’ll flag likely requirements during the space assessment.
What You’ll Need to Provide
What Stays on Your Side
To keep the project clear and avoid scope creep, the client provides:
-
The room or space:
An office, home, studio, retail, warehouse or multi-use space. -
Access to the premises:
For the agreed assessment, installation and training sessions. -
Equipment and materials budget:
Equipment and materials are purchased by the client; see the illustrative budgets below. -
Approval of the proposed setup:
You sign off on the agreed plan before equipment is ordered or installation begins. -
Suitable electricity, internet and infrastructure:
Standard working infrastructure required for the agreed setup. -
Building or landlord consent where required:
For fixings, cabling runs or changes that need permission.
We’ll identify practical limitations and additional requirements during the assessment. After handover: You can record in your own space whenever you want. If you’d rather not edit, design, and publish everything yourself, our monthly post-production memberships can pick up where handover ends.
Equipment Budgets
What Might the Equipment Cost?
The equipment budget is separate from our setup fee. The right budget depends on the room, equipment you already own and what you want the studio to do. These are illustrative ranges, not fixed packages or guaranteed quotes.
01 · Lean
Ex-VAT
For relatively simple recording requirements and compact spaces. This may suit a single reliable setup for podcasts, interviews or founder content without a full multi-camera build.
02 · Professional
Ex-VAT
For businesses or creators wanting a more capable audio, camera and lighting setup for interviews, two-person conversations and video-first podcasts.
03 · Premium
Ex-VAT
For more advanced recording environments requiring additional cameras, audio, lighting, monitoring or production capability. Complex briefs can run above this range.
These are illustrative equipment budgets only, not fixed packages. We won’t quote a final equipment total without assessing the room and requirements first. Already own suitable equipment? We’ll assess what can sensibly be reused rather than recommending unnecessary replacements. Structural work or specialist acoustic improvements may cost extra.
Our Process
From Enquiry to a Studio Your Team Actually Uses
Eight steps take the project from the first details about your space to a trained team recording confidently, with optional post-production once the studio is live.
Share the location, room type, photos or video, intended use and approximate equipment budget.
Review the room, existing equipment, production needs and likely limitations.
Recommend the layout, cameras, audio, lighting, workflow and equipment.
Buy yourself directly, or ask NextMedia London to assist with procurement at the agreed supplier cost.
Build and test the working setup, including cameras, audio, lighting and workflow.
Teach the team how to operate the studio day-to-day.
Record in-house whenever your content calendar needs it.
Upload footage through the agreed workflow if you want NextMedia London to handle editing and content assets.
Record in-house. Send us the footage if you want us to handle the rest.

Training & Handover
A Studio Your Team Can Actually Operate
Training is part of the setup, not an upsell. We don’t expect anyone to become a professional engineer after one session. The objective is a confident, repeatable recording workflow that a non-technical team can use without needing us present for every recording.
We also explain the agreed cloud-upload workflow if you want us to handle editing after each session. The workflow should be clear enough for a new team member to follow if the person responsible for recording changes.
A studio your team can confidently operate. Not another expensive thing nobody switches on.
What Training Covers
- Preparing the studio.
- Camera framing.
- Microphone positioning.
- Basic lighting use.
- Starting and stopping recording.
- Basic monitoring and checks.
- Saving files.
- Organising footage.
- Uploading to the agreed cloud workspace.
- Handing footage to NextMedia London for post-production, where relevant.
The Content Workflow
Record, Upload, We Handle the Rest

Record inside your in-house studio as often as your content calendar needs.
02
You upload
Transfer footage to the agreed cloud workspace through the trained workflow.
03

Social video clips are purchased separately and are not counted in the core membership asset total.
Flexible by design: You can scale up, scale down or pause as your recording schedule changes. Deliverables are produced within an agreed creative framework. Significant redesigns, new creative directions or work outside the agreed monthly scope may require a separate quote.
For editing without the content-system membership, see our podcast editing and content repurposing service.
Why The Content Model Works
Not Every Useful Idea Needs Another Video
An episode produces far more than a long-form upload. It can contain quotable ideas, key takeaways, educational points, opinions, frameworks and discussion prompts. These can become carousels, quote posts, branded graphics and thumbnails, giving businesses a wider content bank rather than relying only on more video clips.
Your front end: A professionally planned in-house studio you own.
Our back end: Finished episodes plus a reliable monthly bank of designed assets.
Social Clip Add- Ons
Need Short-Form Video Too?
Add professionally edited social clips to any membership when you need them. Social clips are not included in the core memberships; they’re priced per clip so you only pay for what you want.
01 clip
03 clips
05 clips
10 clips
At these rates, a standard clip is an efficient repurpose of already-recorded or already-edited material. It can include a selected section from the episode, clean editing, vertical formatting, captions, simple branding, basic text treatment and a social-ready export.
Major bespoke animation, extensive custom B-roll, advanced visual effects, complex motion graphics, entirely separate creative concepts and unlimited revisions are not included at standard rates. More complex short-form edits can be quoted separately.
Publishing Add-Ons
Want Us to Publish the Episodes Too?
If you don’t want to handle uploads, metadata and release management yourself, publishing support can be added to your monthly membership. Publishing is not included in any core membership; it is a separate add-on priced by episode volume.
- £399/month
- £549/month
- £649/month
What publishing covers?
Depending on the agreed workflow, publishing support can include:
- Uploading and scheduling to your agreed podcast host.
- Episode title placement.
- Description and show notes placement.
- Thumbnail placement.
- Agreed metadata.
- YouTube upload where it forms part of the agreed podcast workflow.
- Basic release checks.
What publishing does not include?
Instagram, TikTok or LinkedIn management, community management, daily social posting and paid media are not included. Publishing is not full social media management. For wider social-first content requirements, see our Social Media Content Production service.

This consultancy is not covered by the £1,999 founding offer.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the £1,999 founding offer include?
It covers the agreed setup service: space assessment, studio planning, equipment specification, installation, configuration, recording workflow, training and handover. Equipment is a separate customer cost.
Does £1,999 include equipment?
No. Cameras, microphones, lighting and other equipment and materials are purchased separately. The service fee covers the agreed planning, installation, configuration, workflow and training services.
How much should I budget for equipment?
Illustrative budgets are £1,500–£3,000 for a lean setup, £3,000–£6,000 for a professional setup and £6,000–£12,000+ for a premium multi-camera environment. These are not fixed packages or guaranteed quotes.
Can you use equipment I already have?
Yes, where it is suitable. We’ll assess what can sensibly be reused rather than recommending unnecessary replacements.
Can you turn a meeting room into a studio?
Often, yes. Suitability depends on the room, acoustic conditions and practical limitations, which is why we start with a space assessment.
Can you build one at home?
Yes. The service can cover suitable home and business premises, including spare rooms, living rooms, offices, meeting rooms, retail spaces and warehouses.
Do I need a dedicated room?
Not necessarily. Multifunctional and shared spaces can sometimes work, depending on the intended use and practical limitations of the room.
Can you improve my current setup?
Yes. If you already have equipment and a space that isn’t delivering, we can assess reconfiguration, workflow improvements, and targeted upgrades.
Will you help us buy equipment?
Yes. You can buy recommended equipment directly, or we can help source and procure agreed equipment at the agreed supplier cost.
Do you add a markup to equipment?
No separate equipment procurement markup is added under this service. Where we help procure standard equipment, the client pays the actual agreed equipment cost.

Yes. Training and handover are part of the service. We show the team how to prepare the space, start and stop recording, check and manage files, and use the agreed cloud workflow where relevant.
