Meet Dan Thomas and Angelo Saliba from Bang Media

4870 Studios is run by Bang Media, the Cairns creative agency behind brands, campaigns and a lot of the content you see coming out of the studio. If you have ever wondered who is on the other side of the booking system, this is them.

Dan Thomas and Angelo Saliba sat down in the podcast studio to talk about Bang Media, how the agency works with businesses across Cairns and Far North Queensland, and why they built a studio designed for anyone to walk in and create.

Filmed in the room you can book

The conversation was recorded in our four seat podcast studio using the exact setup every booking gets. Four Rode mics, four cameras, an ATEM Extreme video switcher and a Rodecaster Pro 2 mixer, with the room lit and ready to go. What you see in the video is what you get when you book.

That is the whole idea behind 4870. The gear, the acoustics and the lighting are already sorted, so recording a professional conversation takes about as much effort as having one.

Want the full production treatment?

Bang Media handles strategy, filming and editing for brands that want content done for them, and the 4870 team can produce and edit your studio sessions as an add-on when you book. Have a look at bangmedia.com.au for the agency side, or book the podcast studio and record your own.
