Legal Form, Registration Details, Tax Identifiers, Licences, and Responsible Representatives Required in the Target Country

showripel operates as a private limited company registered in the United Kingdom. Key non-contact legal identifiers include the following: Company Registration Number: 03236308. Place of Registration: England and Wales. VAT Number: GB690815906. These details are displayed to comply with the Companies Act 2006, the Company, Limited Liability Partnership and Business (Names and Trading Disclosures) Regulations 2015, and the Electronic Commerce (EC Directive) Regulations 2002. The company is subject to standard UK corporate requirements, including filing annual accounts and confirmation statements with Companies House. No specific licences are required for the provision of educational guides on production techniques, as this activity falls outside regulated sectors such as financial services or healthcare. Responsible representatives are the directors of the company, whose details are available via public records at Companies House where applicable. If directors' names are voluntarily disclosed on the site, all current directors must be listed in full to maintain compliance. These identifiers allow users and authorities to verify the company's status, financial standing, and legitimacy. Failure to display them could result in fines, as outlined in the Trading Disclosures Regulations. The tax identifier (VAT number) is particularly important for any VAT-registered activities, ensuring transparency in pricing and invoicing. Users can cross-check these details independently through official government portals for added assurance.

Registered Office and Available Contact Details

The registered office address is a key legal requirement under UK law and must be easily accessible. It is: Registered Office: 12th Floor, Brunel Building, 2 Canalside Walk, London, W2 1DG. For contact purposes, where enabled by policy, use the supported placeholders only: contact via [email protected] or the geographic address 8 Hall Bank, Buxton, Derbyshire, SK17 6EW, United Kingdom. No phone numbers or unsupported contact methods are included. The registered office serves as the official address for legal correspondence, service of documents, and regulatory communications. It may differ from any trading or operational address. Visitors should direct formal inquiries to the registered office or the enabled contact methods. A contact form is available on the dedicated Contacts page, but this does not replace the requirement for direct email access where applicable. All contact details must remain accurate and functional to satisfy e-commerce transparency rules. Updates to the registered office are notified to Companies House promptly, and the website reflects current information.

Purpose, Scope, and Intended Audience of the Website

The primary purpose of the website is to provide a comprehensive commercial resource known as Course A, a show production guide centered on motion and timing. This encompasses practical instruction on camera movement techniques, dynamic lighting changes, precise audio cues, and efficient workflows tailored for entertainment programs in television, live events, and related media. The scope includes educational content, guides, resources, and potentially access to courses or materials designed to improve production quality and efficiency. The site targets professionals in the entertainment industry, such as producers, directors, camera operators, lighting technicians, sound engineers, and students or enthusiasts seeking to advance their skills in these areas. It is intended for users in the United Kingdom and potentially internationally, with content presented in English. The audience is expected to be adults over the age of 18 with an interest in or involvement in media production. The website does not target minors or provide content unsuitable for general professional use. Content is designed to be practical and actionable, helping users apply techniques in real-world scenarios while promoting best practices for safety, creativity, and technical excellence. The commercial nature means some sections may involve paid access or related services, with clear descriptions of what is offered. The scope excludes unrelated topics such as news, personal blogs, or non-production content, focusing exclusively on the specified production guide elements to deliver value to the target audience.
