CueScript has announced the passing of founder Brian Larter, age 58.
He was diagnosed with a rare pancreatic cancer in 2018 and spent the past five years undergoing treatment and enjoying life with his family, wife Justine, daughters Louise, Gina and Abbie, and much-loved grandsons.
Larter began his career at Autocue where he started in rental before acquiring BDL Autoscript with Michael Accardi. The company was sold to Vitec Videocom in 2006.
In 2014 Larter and Accardi founded CueScript, with the company's prompter used around the world, including the Christmas Day message, which he worked on for many years. He was also a long-term member of the IBC Exhibition Committee.
A keen cyclist and football fan, Larter also loved cars and spent many summers driving around Europe in his vintage Stag. He will be sorely missed by everyone who knew him personally and professionally and our thoughts and prayers are with his family, said CueScript.
The family has chosen for donations to go to the Royal Marsden Cancer Charity from which they and Brian received amazing support. Donations can be made here.
