The Event:
Goodwood Festival of Speed
is a three-day motorsport event at Goodwood House on the South Downs in West Sussex.
Internationally acclaimed, the Goodwood Festival of Speed is organised by “The Racing Earl” - Lord
March and was called by the Sunday Times “The Garden Party of the Gods”. From 7 o'clock on Friday
Morning, to 7 o'clock on Sunday Evening, there is non-stop activity.
Our Task:
In these modern days of radio, sending a reporter and technical
team to cover an event, even if it is a large local event that YOUR listeners WILL be interested
in, can prove too costly for YOUR budget! Our response to this is a cost-effective way of providing
a variety of packages giving YOU a combination of LIVE, pre-recorded, and packaged items throughout
the three days of the event....AND helping in the provision of sponsorship deals to cover the
costs.
The Proposition:
How would you like exclusive live interviews with Fernando
Alonso, Jenson Button, Takuma Sato and David Coulthard on your show? As an example of the quality
of our OB output, First Take Media secured exclusive interviews for our clients with these and
many, many other motor sport stars at the 2005 Goodwood Festival of Speed and Revival. We also
featured interviews with the Film, TV and music business personalities who gather at these blue
riband events.
We can bring you all the sound and colour of these massive events. We have a
uniquely close relationship with Goodwood, forged over many years, and our team of broadcasters
will again have "access all areas" to present programming from our purpose built studio at the
heart of the action. We can bring you all the sound and colour of this massive event, a high speed
racing pageant of motoring history last year attended by no less than 6 F1 teams, Le Mans teams,
World Rally teams and the rarest racing cars and most well known drivers from all over the globe,
all in competition on the daunting hill climb. Last year The Festival attracted nearly 180,000
people on site and produced a Radio and TV audience in excess of 10 million in the UK alone.
