  • The latter. In which case, any recs for someone/where that will do me some in custom colours?

    Have had a google and tbf Custom Lynx seem to have a good range but never heard of them before today and they don't do d-tap etc or HDMI in a colour I'd want. Am sure there must be a film/video specific supplier somewhere?

    Edit: https://formcave.com/pages/specialty-cables comes cl0se - but USA

  • I still don’t get why you’d want to spend £££ on custom coloured cables?

    At my company, we just put ~100mm of coloured heat shrink tubing on the ends of stock cables if needed.

    Cables are consumables as far as I’m concerned; I really wouldn’t go out of my way in effort and cost to get something bespoke made for little benefit, only to have it all wear out/break after a couple of months/years.

  • At my company..

    Cool.

    Different use case - my understanding is you do quite large scale AV stuff? This is small commercial stuff with crews who like shiny things. Give them a reliable and well looked after package, make sure they have a good experience, they take the photos, other ACs book it on their next job. Entirely agree on cables being consumables, but I'm going to spend money on good cables anyway, why not spend a relatively small amount extra on some branding?
