Having the best technology coupled with engineers that live and breathe sound is how we produce our amazing sound design. Head on over to our Facilities page to have a poke around our studios.
Sound facilities
Foley
Sound design
They say that you watch half a film with your eyes and the other half with your ears. No one believe this more than our sound designers. Crafting soundscapes to evoke emotion and reflect mood within scenes is the heart of what we do.
Sound editing
Taking the original sound recording from the set, our sound editors use a variety of methods to make the dialogue more understandable. They blend elements smoothly together, creating believable sounds for everything the audience sees on screen.
ADR
ADR or ‘Automatic Dialogue Replacement’ is used when the set audio is for some reason unusable. An actor re-records lines in the studio in synchronisation with the picture.
V/O
We record voice over for TV, radio ads and theatrical trailers. It can also be used as a storytelling device to help audiences understand the continuity from scene to scene.
Mastering
Where all the sound elements of the project come together and are matched with the final grade. Our engineers balance all of these elements so that they sit perfectly within the soundscape they created
