Gravity Media hires Revels as business development director

Gravity Media Group, the owner of production and broadcast service firms Gearhouse Broadcast, Hyperactive Broadcast and Input Media, has appointed Barry Revels as its business development director.

Revels has spent the past 13 years running a specialist TV broadcast equipment sales agency, Sound Intention. As part of this, he was the UK’s sole sales agent for Lawo, the network, control, audio and video technology company, Belgian mini-camera system experts CyanView, and specialist broadcast monitoring manufacturer, Bel Digital Audio.

Gearhouse Broadcast was an early adopter of Lawo technology and, through its relationship with Revels, is now among its biggest global customers.

Revels will report to Gravity Media’s chief revenue officer Eamonn Dowdall.

Dowdall said: “Through his impressive work in building up the Lawo brand, Barry has demonstrated his pedigree for business development across a variety of markets in the UK and Europe.”
