“I’m from a news and current affairs show in Australia and we used AV3 for two shoots recently in Dublin. I found Michael and his team to be very professional, he was willing to communicate at all hours of the night to accommodate our time zone, and he ensured our shoot ran according to our budget. Their work was of a very high standard and I would have no hesitation in recommending this company. We’d definitely work with them again in the future”
