All other services were sourced from outside of Khayelitsha. This was because they are not offered in the area, not competitively priced or lacking capacity.

Demographics of other service providors
Sound - supplied by Audioquest, an SMME founded and run by Hennie Smit and operating from Parow. His prices and service are excellent.

We were hoping to work with Ikho Film Production, situated just off Spine Road next to the Training Centre, in the screening of the films. Unfortunately they were closed everytime we went there.
