Real-Time has been Imaging in the North-West since 1991,
previously based in London from 1977-1991 (from 77-84 being known as "Mixed Media").
We have worked for a host of industrial-strength household names, including most of the companies with "British" in their names - designing, producing and delivering multimedia communications, ads, music videos, promos, events, exhibition stands, banners, DVDs, CDs and supporting literature.
We pioneered digital media as long ago as 1983 and with over 30 years at the cutting edge of image making history, we have a unique breadth and depth of experience - from film through "U-Matic" and BetaCam video, then Digital Video to HD and tapeless filming. In graphics we have gone all the way from Letraset and rostrum work to computer artwork generated imagery & 3D animation.
Images from some of this work can be found in the Animation gallery of this site as well as the early entries in the Projects section - we will be adding more and creating a "museum" area as our archeologists unearth further examples.
We were among first in the UK to harness the power of digital animation in the corporate arena back in the 1980's and can honestly say that if it can be imagined- it can be done.
Most importantly we know its not about the toys or the tech, its about pure communication and that's what we really understand, the rest is just window-dressing.
Working together with our clients - the best is yet to come.
