Wavemaker Creative

Wavemaker Creative is a Clio Award-winning production company and manufacturer of Crew in a Box, the world's first professional quality, plug-and-play, remote production solution, which is the best and safest way to achieve a high-level production without requiring talent to leave home. Crew in a Box arrives at talent’s doorstep in a fully disinfected military-grade case containing a 6k cinema camera, expandable 3-foot wide LED light capable of dimming and color temperature changes, direct address teleprompter/Interrotron, detachable 2nd teleprompter/Interrotron monitor for off-axis eyelines, and two professional microphones. Each component works together in a fully integrated system that is completely remotely controlled. On-camera talent simply opens the box and plugs it in, and Crew in a Box automatically connects over the Internet to a remote team of filmmakers who control every component in the box. This is achieved with cellular bonding, without needing to connect to the user’s home Wi-Fi network, eliminating concerns of compromised security. Clients and crew join a video conference where they view a beautiful, high-resolution feed from the camera and participate as if they were on set, while the director appears on Crew in a Box’s Interrotron to direct the talent, creating an incredibly seamless experience for all involved. High-resolution video, up to 6K, is recorded inside the box, but clients can also choose to livestream the shoot. While Crew in a Box was developed in response to the pandemic, the system has been embraced as a cost-effective, long-term solution that excels in the following situations: - Direct-to-camera address for commercials, promos, etc. - Interviews featuring both into and off-camera eyelines - Roundtable discussions with talent in different locations - Variety and talk shows with remote guests - Reality TV Confessionals - Press Junkets - Talent in locations without access to great crews
