COLD IS GOLD × RECODE XR STUDIO
OPERATIONAL BRIEF · AUGUST 2026

A predictable flow
of new studio shoot days.

This document lays out an operational plan to fill your Manchester LED volume with regular shoot-day work — fashion, music, cars, product and live sets — through cold email outreach to brands, agencies and producers across the North, reading time ~ 6 minutes.

Read first

What you are about to read is a first take, drafted ahead of our conversation to give you a concrete preview of how we work.

The prospects, signals and projections presented here are working hypotheses — we will refine them together during the engagement.

The aim of this document is to let you picture concretely what a campaign could produce.

01 / YOUR BUSINESS

We understand your DNA.

Recode XR Studio is a Manchester-based full-service virtual-production and XR studio, founded in 2020 by Gareth Turner and VFX supervisor Paul McHugh, on the back of more than two decades of combined VFX, real-time and high-end production experience. From your base at Space Studios — the 17-acre, six-stage complex in the heart of Manchester — you deliver the whole chain under one roof: LED-volume shoots, real-time rendering on Unreal and Aximmetry, motion capture, green screen, post-production and VFX, live streaming and virtual events, on-set support and studio hire, all paired with generative-AI content workflows. Your positioning says it in four words: “Virtual Production Meets Generative AI”. Credits already span ITV, BBC, Sky, Netflix, Unilever, Standard Chartered, Samsung, Manchester City and The FA Cup, including Coronation Street, the first UK soap to shoot on a virtual-production stage.

Recode XR Studio is a Manchester-based full-service virtual-production and XR studio, founded in 2020 by Gareth Turner and VFX supervisor Paul McHugh, on the back of more than two decades of combined VFX, real-time and high-end production experience. At the heart of it is your LED volume at Space Studios — a 100 m² stage with a 12 m × 4 m curved wall, ceiling panels and real-time camera tracking on Unreal and Aximmetry — in the 17-acre, six-stage complex in the centre of Manchester. It is a place brands and productions come to shoot: fashion, music videos, car and product work, live and virtual sets, all in a controlled day. Credits already span ITV, BBC, Sky, Netflix, Unilever, Standard Chartered, Samsung, Manchester City and The FA Cup, including Coronation Street, the first UK soap to shoot on a virtual-production stage.

What sets you apart

Most people still think a virtual-production shoot is a big-budget-only affair. Recode’s answer is “Virtual Production Meets Generative AI”: instead of building full 3D Unreal environments from scratch, you generate AI backplates and environments, which makes an LED-volume shoot day dramatically faster and cheaper. A brand can shoot a whole campaign in-studio, in any environment, in a day — no location scouting, no travel, no weather, no permits — and walk out with finished-grade imagery. That is what puts a Manchester volume day within reach of a fashion label or a music video, not just a returning TV drama.

What we will push on your behalf

The Manchester LED volume as a shoot-day destination — regular, lower-value, higher-frequency bookings that fill the studio between the big slow-burn TV and film jobs. Fashion and look-book shoots, music videos, car and vehicle-plate work, product and catalogue photography, live and virtual-set events. The wedge lands on the pain a boutique studio lives with: the marquee productions are booked a year out, and the volume needs steady work in between to cover its overheads. We go wide across Northern brands, agencies and producers who could bring a shoot to Manchester.

02 / YOUR MARKET

A market identified and qualified.

A studio shoot day means physically coming to the volume, so this campaign is sized on the North of England — Greater Manchester, Liverpool and Merseyside, Cheshire, Lancashire and the Leeds/Yorkshire belt, all within an easy commute of Space Studios. We count the Northern brands, agencies, production companies and music and photography producers that commission the kind of shoot a volume can deliver. Screened to those a shoot day realistically fits and sized deliberately at the low end, that is a working universe of around 10,000 organisations. It is smaller than a national campaign by design — a shoot day is a local commitment — but it is dense, and the volume only needs a fraction of it booked to stay full.

~10,000
Northern organisations identified

~5,000

over 12 months (UK B2B average closing rate: 20%) — each a brand or producer that books the volume, many of them repeat

How we build this database

We cross-reference Companies House and sector directories, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, the trade press (Prolific North, Broadcast, Televisual, Campaign, Creative Review, FashionNetwork, Music Week), production listings and event and awards line-ups to identify the people who actually commission content: marketing directors and managers at brands and agencies, producers, production managers and heads of production at production companies and broadcasters, and creative directors. Every contact is then verified and enriched by AI: role check, business email validation and a last-12-month news scrape per organisation. Impossible to do by hand across thousands of Northern commissioners — this is what makes qualification possible at scale.

Why 50% are contactable

Not every organisation gives us a named decision-maker with a verified business email on the first pass. This 50% ratio is deliberately conservative — the creative and production sector typically yields 40% to 60% verified contacts through Sales Navigator, Apollo, Hunter and our enrichment stack — so the projection you read is built on realistic reach, not an optimistic one.

A word on honesty: ~16 clients is market headroom, not a delivery promise. Recode is a boutique, founder-led studio and the volume has finite shoot-day capacity. The point of a 10,000-strong Northern universe is that a shortage of prospects is never the bottleneck — the volume can run as full as you want it, and we can widen the geography (add the Midlands) or run the national all-services campaign in parallel once Phase 1 has shown what lands.
03 / PROSPECT SAMPLE

10 companies identified by our AI.

Before launching at full scale, we always start with a sample of 10 real prospects. This is the studio campaign, so every one is a Northern brand, agency or producer that could bring a shoot to the Manchester volume, picked across the shoot-day services — fashion, music video, car plates, product photography, live and virtual sets, branded content — so the sample shows the whole stage works, not one niche. For each we identify a named decision-maker, surface a recent verifiable signal, and explain why they fit. The same method will then be applied to your full database of ~5,000 contactable Northern decision-makers.

For each prospect, our AI identifies a concrete signal: a recent campaign, collection, launch, release or opening. That signal justifies why to reach out now and provides the foundation for personalising the email.

Every company here is within an easy commute of Space Studios, so a shoot day is a realistic ask. You will have the opportunity to validate this list and steer us before the campaign goes live.

01

Adanola

Laura Ward · Senior Brand Marketing Manager
Manchester DTC athleisure brand, one of the UK’s fastest-growing retail names.
SIGNAL DETECTED

January 2026: unveiled a 28-piece SS26 collection fronted by new brand ambassador Lila Moss, its biggest campaign to date.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: fashion campaign. A marquee collection means a run of campaign and e-commerce imagery, and they are a short drive from Space Studios. Shoot the whole look-book on the volume in a controlled day instead of booking locations and chasing light.

02

Montirex

Daniel Yuen · Co-Founder & Director
Founder-led Liverpool technical sportswear brand, roughly £130m projected revenue, growing without outside funding.
SIGNAL DETECTED

2026: ran its “For The Moments” campaign with boxers Ben Whittaker and Shakur Stevenson and launched a golf-wear category at The Open, Royal Birkdale.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: brand campaign film. Story-led campaigns and a new category launch mean continuous content. An LED volume plus AI backdrops shoots cinematic brand films in-studio, and Recode is on their doorstep in the North West.

03

Dowsing & Reynolds

Ally Dowsing-Reynolds · Co-Founder & CEO
Leeds premium interiors, lighting and hardware brand with a cult DTC following.
SIGNAL DETECTED

2026: opened a new Leeds showroom and a Doncaster warehouse and set out a trade and international expansion plan.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: product & catalogue photography. A large, growing lighting and hardware catalogue scaling into trade and export needs consistent product and tabletop imagery, the volume’s bread and butter, dressed and re-dressed in minutes.

04

Video Ink

Adam Barker · Founder & Director
Manchester independent, award-winning music-video and content production house, 15+ years and 700+ videos.
SIGNAL DETECTED

A cinematic music-video specialist (recent work includes Sabaton and a Marcus Rashford shoot), Manchester-local to the volume.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: music video. A production house that already makes high-end music videos is a repeat booker of the volume: controllable, weatherproof environments for artist shoots without location or full CGI builds, minutes from their base.

05

On Event Production Co

Adam Dewhurst · Managing Director
Manchester award-winning live, hybrid and virtual event production company.
SIGNAL DETECTED

2026: delivered the WorldSkills UK National Finals at Bridgewater Hall in Manchester; active on the Event Production Awards 2026 circuit.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: live / virtual set. They already build hybrid and virtual events; the LED volume gives them a controllable virtual set for broadcasts and streams, and they are Manchester-local for fast turnarounds.

06

Seven Bro7hers Brewing

Keith McAvoy · Founder & CEO
Family-run Salford craft brewery, now stocked nationwide in ASDA, M&S and Co-op.
SIGNAL DETECTED

February 2026: signed a national supply deal with JD Wetherspoon, alongside a new brewery, distillery and taproom-restaurant opening in 2026.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: launch & product content. A national rollout and a new venue both need fresh hero shots and launch content. A studio day on the volume, with dressed sets and product photography under one roof, gives advertising-grade assets fast, a short hop from Salford.

07

BAC (Briggs Automotive Company)

Neill Briggs · Co-Founder
British hand-built supercar maker (the single-seat Mono), based in Liverpool.
SIGNAL DETECTED

Building the Model Year 2025 Mono — new driver interface, graphene carbon-fibre panels — in production at the Liverpool factory.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: vehicle plates & hero imagery. A hand-built supercar needs cinematic hero shots and driving environments a static Liverpool workshop cannot give. The volume delivers driving plates, controlled reflections and any backdrop without closing a road.

08

P.Louise

Paige Williams · Founder & CEO
Cult Greater Manchester makeup and beauty brand with a huge social following, founder-led (Stockport / Trafford).
SIGNAL DETECTED

July 2025: opened “P.Louise City”, a £6.2m, 19,000 sq ft immersive megastore at Trafford Palazzo.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: beauty content. A brand whose growth engine is content is the ideal volume client: infinite virtual sets for product launches and campaign shoots without physical builds, minutes from Manchester.

09

Classic Football Shirts

Doug Bierton · Co-Founder & CEO
The world’s largest retailer of retro and vintage football shirts, based in Manchester’s Northern Quarter.
SIGNAL DETECTED

2026: a Walkers x Classic Football Shirts retro-jersey capsule and a Boston World Cup pop-up (May-July 2026), riding World Cup 2026 hype.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: product & World Cup content. A vast, constantly-refreshed catalogue plus World Cup 2026 campaigns means high-volume product and content shoots the Manchester volume can turn around locally.

10

Represent

George Heaton · Co-Founder & Creative Director
British luxury streetwear brand (mainline plus the 247 performance line), rooted in Wigan and Manchester.
SIGNAL DETECTED

2025: opened a Soho flagship and signed a five-year Iron Maiden collaboration marking the band’s 50 years.

WHY THIS PROSPECT FOR RECODE XR STUDIO

Shoot: campaign & look-book. Frequent seasonal campaigns and collab drops need distinctive sets. The volume delivers premium campaign imagery and virtual environments close to their North West base.

04 / AI PERSONALISATION

Emails that look written by hand.

The difference between an email that gets ignored and an email that gets a reply is rarely the offer itself, it is the first sentence. When a marketing director, brand owner or producer opens an email and reads a line that names the exact collection they just dropped, the campaign they are about to shoot, or the store they just opened, the email earns the right to keep going. Cold is Gold’s AI workflow extracts those facts at scale across thousands of Northern brands, agencies and producers, then weaves them into the opening line of each email so every message reads as if a human spent two minutes researching the recipient. No flattery, no horoscope copy, no “I came across your website” openings, just a precise, verifiable fact in the prospect’s own vocabulary, tied directly to a shoot day at your Manchester volume.

The principle: when a marketing director or producer reads the email, they should think “this person looked into me”, not “this is a bot”. Every opening sentence cites a precise, verifiable fact in the prospect’s own vocabulary — collection, campaign, drop, plates, look-book, volume, shoot day.

Here are the 3 types of signal we would use, built to fire across every Northern shoot-day prospect and stacked from most-findable to most-personal so the AI pipeline always has a clean fallback.

01

A recent campaign, collection, launch or opening

What we look for A new collection, campaign, product drop, store or venue opening the prospect has put out in the last 12 months — a reason they need fresh imagery now.
Where we find it Prospect site & socials · Prolific North · Drapers · Campaign · FashionNetwork · local and regional press · LinkedIn posts
Findable on 90% of prospects
Raw data

AI personalisation →

“Saw the SS26 collection with Lila Moss just landed. Are you shooting the campaign imagery in-studio this season, or still booking locations for it?”

02

How and where they currently shoot

What we look for How the prospect produces its imagery today, read from recent campaigns: location shoots, travel, weather-dependent set-ups or expensive builds — exactly what a volume replaces.
Where we find it Recent campaign credits · behind-the-scenes posts · showreels · the prospect’s past output
Findable on 80% of prospects
Raw data

Represent shot its recent seasonal campaigns and collab launches on location, coordinating sets, travel and weather around each drop.

AI personalisation →

“With the seasonal drops, are you still building and travelling to locations each time, or would shooting them on a volume in Manchester take the weather and logistics out of it?”

03

A comparable on Recode’s own volume

What we look for A shoot Recode has already delivered on the Manchester volume that mirrors the prospect’s world, so the opener carries proof rather than a pitch.
Where we find it Recode’s own portfolio matched to the prospect’s sector · shared Northern names · comparable formats already shot on the volume
Findable on 70% of prospects
Raw data

Classic Football Shirts is running World Cup 2026 capsules and pop-ups off a vast, constantly-refreshed shirt catalogue.

AI personalisation →

“We shoot Man City and FA Cup content on our Manchester volume, so for the World Cup 2026 range we could turn your shirt campaigns around here without a location build.”

The wider range we can pull

The three above are the core net, but the pipeline can enrich on many more: a new senior marketing or brand hire (fresh budget), a recent weather-dependent location shoot (the pain the volume removes), a rebrand or new visual identity, a funding round or record year, an award win or shortlist, active job ads for content and studio roles, or a competitor already shooting on an LED volume. Each prospect gets the sharpest signal available to them.

Why breadth matters here

A volume day suits a fashion label, a car maker, a music artist and a food brand alike, so no single signal has to fit everyone. A fashion brand is hooked on its new collection, a beauty brand on its store opening, a shirt retailer on the World Cup. The AI picks the angle that matches each prospect, so one campaign speaks naturally to a look-book, a driving plate and a product shoot at once.

05 / CAMPAIGN EXAMPLES

Real campaigns we have run.

These 13 examples are intentionally varied — both in sector (construction, hospitality, luxury, SaaS, influencer marketing, editorial, EMS, factoring…) and in outcomes. You will find campaigns matching each of our 4 projection scenarios — from the minimum guarantee to exceptional cases. The goal is not to show a curated best-of, but the genuine diversity of what we produce. The campaign cards below are kept in their original French to remain faithful to the real artefacts we delivered. The AI-personalised sentences are highlighted in terracotta.

Ongoing
Good to know: phases 2, 3 and 4 run in parallel with the technical setup (phase 1). Concretely, during the 1-month technical warm-up we build your database and write your sequence — so the first emails go out from week 5.

Phase 1 — Technical setup

Creation of dedicated sending domains, SPF/DKIM/DMARC configuration, opening and setting up the email addresses, launch of the warm-up (1 month). No action required on your side.

Phase 2 — Workshop (1h)

A structured working session to define together the structure of the database, the tone of voice for the emails, and to gather your case studies and key differentiators. This phase runs in parallel with phase 1 (Technical setup).

Phase 3 — Sequence copywriting

First draft, feedback rounds and optimisations with you, then layering in the AI personalisation (the signals shown above). We validate the overall email content with you before moving on to the database.

Phase 4 — Database build

We assemble a sample of prospects (like the 10 above) for you to validate. Once approved, we build the full database with quality control: field verification, contact qualification.

Phase 5 — Campaign launch

Sending starts as soon as the warm-up is complete. First results within the first week. Real-time tracking: open rate, reply rate, opportunities generated.

Phase 6 — Reporting & optimisation

Real-time reporting through our platform. Continuous adjustments and A/B testing on subject lines, opening sentences and sequences. Regular monthly or quarterly check-ins depending on results.

Our commitment
No contractual commitment on the number of opportunities.

How the guarantee works in 3 clauses.

D0 · Launch
CLAUSE.01
Our commitment

We commit to generating at least opportunities per month, i.e. opportunities over months. This target matches the low scenario of our projections (10% of our clients' campaigns).

M+1 · Check
CLAUSE.02
If we fall short of the target

As soon as a month closes below opportunities, your billing is immediately frozen. Concretely: you stop paying from that month onwards, until we have fully caught up the cumulative shortfall. You never pay for a month where we don't deliver on our commitment.

M+3 · Limit
CLAUSE.03
If the shortfall persists over 3 consecutive months

Termination is possible at no cost. We keep working at our own expense during those 3 months of shortfall; beyond that, we acknowledge the failure and you are no longer billable for what follows.

Dynamic values

The figures shown in these clauses are not fixed: they are recalculated automatically based on the parameters set in your simulation above. The final contractual commitment will depend on the parameters validated together at the start of the engagement.

Contractual definition of an opportunity: a prospect responding positively to one of our prospecting emails — either an information request or a meeting request.

In addition to fees, 3 technical costs to plan for.

The first is a one-off investment that you own for life — your prospects remain yours, even if you stop working with us. The other two are monthly technical subscriptions, essential for any cold email campaign.

A FINAL WORD

This document is not a sales pitch. It is a projection built on the real numbers from our campaigns — the scenarios presented are not promises, they are averages observed across our clients.

Our method has been operational for several years. It works as soon as the fundamentals are in place: a clearly identified market, a differentiating positioning, a measured closing rate. Recode XR Studio has all three.

Our conviction is that we can install for you a steady flow of shoot days booked into your Manchester volume by Northern brands, agencies and producers — with indicators we steer together, month after month.

Whenever you want to talk about it concretely, we are here.
