The latest news and events from AardvarkFX.

AardvarkFX begin filming on the forthcoming Jeremy Clarkson DVD

Filming will get underway shortly for the forthcoming Jeremy Clarkson DVD. AardvarkFX have again been asked to provide the special effects required and some of these will be the most spectacular yet.
Check back for the release date.

Crane Launch

AardvarkFX were contacted by Pyro1 to assist in in the launch of 2 new container cranes at Southampton container terminal.
Our wireles remote boxes were used at the very end of the crane booms and in 2 containers suspended from underneath.

Hampton Court House

AardvarkFX recently provided the Sound System and Wireless Firing System for a themed night at Hampton Court House. Audiences we spellbound when we skilfully choreographed Fireworks to a “Bond” music mix. We are back at Hampton Court House in June for another Pyromusical.

AardvarkFX finish filming for BBC Top Gear

AardvarkFX have just finished filming for the final program of this year for BBC Top gear, after working with Jeremy suppling various special effects for his Super Car Showdown DVD, we were asked by the team at Top Gear to help with a special effect that could only be carried out safely using our wireless firing system – the program will be screened on the 23rd December at 8pm.

A safe and spectacular November

AardvarkFX have had another safe and spectacular November. Our diary was full this year and all shows went to plan.
The Round Table in Radstock were stunned with a pyromusical – reports from the audience were that it was the best show they had seen in years. Using our very own sound system to play music to the crowd, they saw a pyromusical like never before – this really showed the benefit of our wireless firing system and wireless audio box.
Chiswick Park were enthralled with a 5 minute laser display also to music. Laser images, animations and company logo’s were back projected on to our very own water screen measuring 10mx4m which gave the impression of the text and graphics “floating” in mid air. The crowd of 4500+ erupted with applause at the end of the show.
All the other shows we put on were very well recieved, with audiences appreciating the technology that is now used in all our displays.

AardvarkFX finish filming for Jeremy Clarkson

AardvarkFX have supplied special effects for the forthcoming Jeremy Clarkson “Super car showdown” DVD released on November 5th. Special effects include a huge explosion with the “Stig” in a car, a Renault that crashes into a concrete barrier and a “G.Wiz” that hits a Pine table.
