Live TV Production — UK & International
Funny Hands Media is a live TV production company whose team brings more than twenty-five years of experience delivering live broadcasts, live streams and outside broadcasts for clients across the UK and internationally.
When the programme is live, there are no second chances. No retakes, no resets, no fixing it in the edit. Everything we do is built around that reality: experienced people in the right roles, proven workflows, and calm decision-making under pressure — so you can concentrate on your event while we deliver the broadcast.
Our track record
Our team delivered Sports Presentation for Formula E across Seasons 9 and 10, and our directors and vision mixers work at the highest level of live sport, including Formula 1. We bring that same broadcast standard to every production, whatever the scale.
From international sporting events and Sports Presentation through to corporate town halls, awards ceremonies and music productions, we are trusted by organisations including Formula 1, Paramount, MTV and Utility Warehouse to deliver live content professionally, reliably and without compromise.

How we work
Live television is a different discipline from filmed content. There is no safety net, and that changes how a production has to be planned, crewed and run.
Technology matters, but it is the people who make a live broadcast succeed. That is why we take a production-first approach: we plan the editorial and the running order before we specify the kit, we put experienced heads in the gallery and on the floor, and we rehearse so that when the red light comes on, everyone already knows the answer to every question.
Our crew work as one team under the Funny Hands banner, to Funny Hands standards, on every job.

Because live is what we do — not a sideline. With more than twenty-five years of industry experience between us, we have seen and solved almost everything a live broadcast can throw at a team. Clients come back to us because the show goes out clean, on time, every time. That is the whole job, and we treat it that way.
