3SixtyMedia is a joint venture post production and studio crewing company, based at MediaCityUK in Salford Quays and co-owned by ITV Studios and BBC Studioworks. Formed in 2000, it was originally based at Granada Television's Quay Street headquarters and combined the studio and post production facilities and technical staff of both BBC Manchester and Granada, aiming to cut operating costs.[1] As part of the venture, some programmes were recorded at the studios of both BBC Manchester (New Broadcasting House) and Granada Television (Granada Studios), such as A Question of Sport.[2]
