| MCS Agency was formed by Keith Bishop in 1991 when he left BBC TV after 15 successful years. During that time he became friendly with a wide range of performers, ranging from Radio One disc jockeys to classical actors and actresses involved in the BBC’s high quality drama productions. At the same time, largely thanks to his working role, he built firm and lasting contacts with almost every part of the British media from tabloid daily newspapers to high quality prestige magazines. Media exposure is the lifeblood of public figures - publicity being the oxygen by which their profile is raised and thus the demand for their services increased. Says Keith Bishop; “I was fortunate my role at the BBC involved me working on a day-to-day basis with some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry and across the entire media world. At the same time, the more formal side of my work involved me having to deal with important issues almost every day which involved very senior people within the communications business generally. I would sometimes find myself involved in crucial meetings with the Controller of BBC1, the editor of the biggest selling newspaper in Britain and a top singer with a current number one hit record”! “It was all part and parcel of a day’s work but it meant I was able to form invaluable contacts and friendships. Then one day I felt the time was right to leave the security and comfort of the greatest broadcasting organisation in the world and to have a go at forming my own business. I had to base that business on what I knew best and that was, and still is, the media”. As the MCS Agency flourished the company began to contract large companies as clients, providing publicity services and public relations assistance. Often they were clients for whom MCS’s artistes had performed at company functions. Impressed by the manner in which MCS handled their event, those same companies often moved to ask the Agency to advise them on an on-going commercial basis. “One exciting aspect of our business which is set to grow rapidly is the Audio Description for Blind dubbing service we provide for BSkyB,” says Keith. “We have an exclusive contract with Sky and our artistes have been providing voice-over descriptions of scenes and activity in their programmes since the concept was started. “In September new government legislation means the service has to be extended still further which will result in our involvement increasing fourfold, making it a very significant part of our turn-over” | |
