Abstract

A media or recorded event editing, screening, and communications trailer provides portable means by which editing, screening, and communications equipment can be brought on-site or otherwise to provide greater efficiency and less delay in processing film or other media. A large trailer such as that used in tractor/trailer rigs provides the basis for a combined facility incorporating a projection room, a screening area, several editing consoles, a refreshment area, an equipment area, a foyer, and an editing area. Slideouts provide increased interior volume space for greater working comfort yet are sturdy and stable both in their deployed and collapsed conditions. A communications facility incorporated into the trailer provides local and/or global communications networking and access as well as audio, video, and/or audio/video signal communication capacity.
