The studio · 121 W 27th St, Suite 1003C

Our Chelsea studio is home base.

Every kit is prepped, tested and packed here before it goes out, and we shoot here too: sit-down interviews, two-person conversations and green screen work, with our own lighting, cameras and audio already in the room.

The same room runs stills on the white seamless and multi-guest podcasts around one table, with mics, headphones and the mixer set up and recording on site.

Equipment

Cameras & audio.

Matched Sony color across cameras with S-Cinetone, so multi-camera footage cuts together. On audio, the Behringer WING gives us multitrack recording and a live room mix from one console, and our Shure wireless handhelds are asset-tagged and cased.

Every kit is asset-tagged and tracked, prepped and tested at the studio, and loaded out as a complete set. That's how we can run several shoots on the same day without anyone scrambling for a cable on site.

In-house server & delivery

Your footage stays on our server.

We maintain our own server for storing and sharing footage. That gives us greater control over file access and privacy, and more flexibility managing large volumes of production files than relying only on platforms like Google Drive or Dropbox.

Raw footage goes up to our server and out to you as a private download link, often the same night as the shoot.

DeliveryPrivate links, often same night
Access & privacyShared only with people you name
Big shootsNo Drive or Dropbox limits
