Captivating and memorable, that’s the point of all the audio productions we make. It’s not just about words. We record the backdrop – the sounds of place and process – as well as the story, the personalities, the views and explanations.

It’s a sound business

Whether it is radio documentary broadcasts, online podcasts, other audio downloads or even subscriber-only audio (for example within a company) all our productions take you on an amazing audio journey. We regularly make major documentaries for BBC World Service.

Fancy a listen to the radio we make?

Catch a Green Shoots radio production on air or you can listen online at a time that suits you. You can also  download our programmes to listen wherever as well as whenever you like.

And coming up next on BBC World Service – AKA Mystery Island – the story of a tiny Pacific island with a big story. We investigate the remarkable community success, so far, of coping with the exponential rise in cruise ship tourism.

Meanwhile we add a golden glow to Radio 4 The Food Programme – the treasure of Turmeric sharing the colourful story of the producers and processors of this wonder spice we met in India at the time of their turmeric harvest.

Picture the sound

Sound alone can evoke all sorts of pictures in the listeners’ minds. But if you wish to engage eyes as well as ears we can take photos at the same time, or use yours so that there are some images to illustrate the soundtrack.
