On Location

BISON is a London studio that takes podcast and video production on location, filming interviews and series wherever the story lives, so your audience steps into your world.

Productions have taken us to Milan Design Week, dressing rooms at the O2 Arena, the House of Lords, behind the scenes at Olympic sporting facilities, Brian Eno’s studio, Mayfair homes, hotels, business conferences and more. Each location brought something different to the conversation, and that is precisely the point.

On-location productions scale to the brief. Sometimes that’s a full multi-camera crew with live switching and broadcast-quality audio for a live podcast or flagship series. Other times, a single camera and a handheld mic is all you need for something more intimate and in-world.

We match the level of production to the story and the budget, and never compromise on quality.

Conceived and produced by BISON, each episode is a walk recorded in one continuous take, with no edits. An antidote to over-production and AI generation, the format lets the location and everything happening around it become part of the conversation: an authentic moment that can’t be replicated.

Set Your Scene

Bring Home The Bacon, hosted by fitness influencer Connor Minney, is an ongoing interview podcast in the mould of Diary of a CEO, unfiltered conversations with people who've built something real.

The brief called for a setting that matched the format: honest, unpolished, no pretence. A studio would have worked against that. Instead, every episode is filmed on location at Billy's Cafe, a working greasy spoon, the kind of space that encourages people to get down to brass tacks.

BISON runs camera and audio on every episode, holding broadcast-standard sound in a noisy, dynamic environment. It's the location choice that makes the show work, backed by the craft to pull it off.

Different Room,
Same Standard

Standard Innovation, a music data business, is the team behind Music Moneyball, a podcast for an audience of investors, executives and data specialists. BISON produces the series on an ongoing basis, with a dedicated producer attached to the show.

For their networking and live podcast breakfast at 180 The Strand, BISON extended the format into a live event: behind-the-scenes photography, guest interviews, and a full live recording of the episode, delivered to broadcast standard on the day.

It's a good example of what on-location podcast production can add to a series otherwise recorded in the studio or remotely: the ability to step outside the usual format when an occasion calls for it, without any drop in quality.
