The Museum of Wales and More

So it has been a busy few weeks here at Tantrwm.
Many people ask "What do you do there?". Well in order to answer that i thought that i would run through a few things that we have been up to in the last few weeks.

VIDEO
We create video for all sorts of customers. Tonypandy community college has had us making films with their students, teaching them how to use Apple Mac computers and cameras. The Museum of Wales is letting us make some video based Welsh learners packs at the Woollen Museum in West Wales. We have made two pop videos in the last few weeks with RCT Cultural Services and we are doing VOX POP videos at a GALA Dinner event tonight. These clips generally get put onto DVD and the web.

WEBSITES
Our web mistress, Rhiannon, takes care of the web side of the business. From simple static HTML sites to full blown Content Managed Sites, she co-ordinates the design, implementation and hosting. We came to web site design from the fact that it was always a problem for clients to add video or other content, we make it easy. Lately this has meant creating sites for Rhondda Breast Friends, Maesgwyn School, Breakthrough Change, The Mac Lads, GovernmentVideo.co.uk and a new clothes rental service soon to be launched.

DIGITAL SIGNAGE
Tantrwm are the only company in Wales providing MAC based digital signage solutions for schools and colleges. We provide ALL the hardware (Screens, computers, brackets etc) and install and train people on the software. But we do not leave it at that. We also support the client in creating content for their new signage system. Tonypandy community college is the first school in the area to test the signage system.

TRAINING
We provide APPLE certified training and run introductory courses. Our high end course runs from Thursday to Monday over the last weekend of every month. The course covers the Apple FCP level one requirements but adds much more. We bring in award winning cinematographers, film makers to inspire and help students get the most from their training. The courses are limited to 4 people. Our last course took place on the last weekend in February and saw the Grammy Nomiated Ben Cole come and give us an insight into high end film making.

Well that is enough for now. If you want to find out more about Tantrwm then please get in touch.
