About
Imaki Films is an audiovisual production company in Simón Bolívar, near Laureles, whose own studio records podcasts, interviews and training content in audio and video. The podcast set is fully equipped and run by a studio operator, with up to three Canon EOS 4K cameras and three microphones mixed live on an ATEM Mini Extreme ISO.

The same space rents out a white cyclorama of 7 by 6 metres and a green one of 5 by 6 metres, with a makeup area, a private dressing room and a lounge for clients.
