Audio production is the art of creating sound design, foley, and post-production mixes for film and television. Broadcast & post sound mixing is essential to having your video project translate sonically on TV, the web, and in theaters. With over 15 years of experiencing working with sound in varying spaces - from hospitals to cinemas - I provide expert level audio editing, recording, and sound mixing services for projects ranging from movies to audiobooks and so much more at almost any budget.
Don’t let your project be the victim of bad mixing.
On Set Audio
On Set Audio, or Field Recording, is the term used for recording sound outside of a recording studio which applies to both natural and human-produced sounds. You’ve most likely heard the terms “Sound Person”, “Audio Op”, “Boom Op”, or “Sound Mixer” so to clarify, those are various titles applied to the person responsible for capturing On Set Audio. Industry standard Field Recording uses a mix of multiple audio channels and microphones to capture and provide a clean preliminary sound mix.

Post Production Audio
Post Production Audio is where the art of creating sound design, foley, score, soundtracks, and pristine dialogue for movies, television, and music happens. Broadcast & post sound mixing is essential to having your video project translate sonically on TV, the web, and in theaters. That basically means two things; 1) it sounds absolutely incredible when you listen to it and 2) that incredible sound happens no matter where you listen. So do you want Stereo, Surround, Spatial Audio, or All of the Above?
2.1 Channel (Cinema Stereo)
A 2.1 channel setup consists of one left channel, one right channel, and a subwoofer channel. That’s two speakers and a “bass” to give you a nice clean sound. With a proper cinematic mix you’ll feel like the voices are coming from the space between the speakers, like from the screen itself, while other sounds match their approximate placement on screen scaled to the audio size of your room.

5.1 Channel (Surround Sound)
The standard surround sound system that uses five audio channels (center, front left, front right, rear left, rear right) plus a subwoofer channel for low end frequencies and effects. Surround sound is the industry standard movie experience we’ve all come to love that makes us feel immersed in the movie we are watching. An accurate mix brings all your voices into the center channel with a little bit occasionally slipping into the front left and front right for effect and ambience. The front left and front right also join the subwoofer in providing your main music tracks, scores and effects while the rear left and front help to create like like enveloping of effects and environmental sounds.
