Announcements

Studio Unknown is now Bi-Coastal!

Studio Unknown, LLC. of Catonsville, Maryland, and Santisound, Inc. of Hollywood, California, are pleased to announce that an agreement has been reached that initiates a merger of the two post-production facilities. In this first phase, each company will now operate in both locations as well as offer a combined list of audio post-production services. Clients of each firm will continue to receive the same high quality and personal service they’ve come to know, and can now expect not only a wider range of services, but the convenience of facilities located on both coasts.

While both facilities work in all aspects of audio post, cinematic sound and beyond, each will bring its unique expertise to the merger. Studio Unknown is a Dolby® tuned/Print Master Approved facility with a focus on theatrical sound while Santisound is an award winning studio, providing audio solutions for theatrical, television, & home entertainment. We are now a full-service, end-to-end audio post company with bi-coastal locations.

We’re excited for the future and our continued growth. Please use this link, http://santisound.com/, to learn more about the newest addition to our team.

Thank you.
