AUDIO POST PRODUCTION IN NYC

Audio post production studio in NYC for film and television

Audio post production is everything that happens to sound after picture editing — shaping dialogue, building environments, integrating performance detail, and creating the final mix audiences actually hear.

I provide full-service audio post production in NYC for film, television, and documentary projects, working from editorial turnover through final delivery with an emphasis on clarity, flexibility, and long-term reliability.

This page offers a straightforward overview of how the process works. For a full list of individual services, visit Services.


What Audio Post Production Includes

While every project is different, audio post production typically includes dialogue editing, sound design, ADR and voiceover integration, Foley recording and editing, and the final re-recording mix.

These stages are designed to work together rather than as isolated steps, allowing sound editorial and mixing to remain responsive as picture evolves.


Production Audio, EDLs & Reconforms

In professional audio post production, the mix is not built solely from what exists in an editorial AAF. Dialogue edits are reconformed against the original production audio recorded on set.

By reconnecting edits to the original production multichannel WAV files, every microphone and take remains available — providing far greater flexibility for cleanup, performance choices, and scene continuity than a flattened edit timeline.

Edit decision lists (EDLs) are used when needed to track picture revisions and maintain accurate sync. This keeps sound editorial and mixing resilient through late-stage picture changes rather than forcing costly rebuilds.


What You’ll Deliver

Picture editorial timeline and audio turnover preparation

Turnovers don’t need to be complicated. The goal is to provide enough information to accurately rebuild sound while preserving flexibility.

A typical turnover includes:

  • A picture reference file with timecode
  • An AAF or edit session from picture editorial
  • Original production audio (multichannel WAV files)
  • Sound reports or metadata when available
  • Notes identifying problem scenes, priorities, or upcoming picture changes
