FRAY Studio is a multi award-winning video design studio specialising in shared experience. In theatre we have designed for everyone from Disney to Complicite. In music we have created concerts for artists from Lewis Capaldi to Coldplay. We have designed exhibitions on subjects from the Rolling Stones to the Large Hadron Collider and we have delivered many world-class virtual productions. Our work covers many areas but what unites it is our focus on using video to create meaningful, story-driven, shared experiences that expand the imagination.
We are a friendly company. We see our employees as people, not resources and your time with us as a journey, letting you grow and develop your skills while working on world-class creative projects.
FRAY is committed to opening up our industry to those who are not traditionally represented in the backstage and design fields. Time and experience have taught us that our teams are better, stronger and more creative when they are composed of diverse voices and experiences. We want our team to be as diverse as the performers on stage or the audiences who experience our work.
We recruit on aptitude, not qualification.
