SCENE 01 / POST PRODUCTION AUDIO
Post-Production Audio
Professional sound editing, ADR, Foley, and mixing for film and TV productions.
Here is how this works in practice. Post-prod audio transforms raw location recordings into a polished, immersive soundtrack. With access to Tóbis Studios and Lisbon's audio post community, we connect you with engineers skilled in Portuguese-language ADR and European co-production delivery. This phase covers dialogue editing, ADR, sound design, Foley, music scoring, and final mixing, all working together to create the layered audio experience that supports and boosts the visual storytelling.
Here is the short of it. We connect you with post-prod audio facilities and engineers across Portugal who deliver broadcast and cinema-standard results. Our team sets up the full audio post workflow from dialogue cleanup through final mix, working with facilities including Tóbis Studios, Valentim de Carvalho, and top facilities in Lisbon, making sure your project meets tech delivery needs and creative expectations.

On Location
Post-production audio across Portugal — Pro Tools HDX dialogue editorial, sound design, Foley, ADR, and Dolby Atmos mixing through Lisbon and Porto stages, anchored by the Pedro Costa and Miguel Gomes sonic lineage and the Fado UNESCO Intangible 2011 archival palette.
Here is how this works in practice. Our post-audio facilities route Avid Pro Tools HDX with MTRX and MTRX Studio interfaces for dialogue edit and conform, Avid S6 and Avid S4 control surfaces in Dolby Atmos-certified rooms with Genelec 8351A and 8341A tracking and Pro Monitor PMC IB2S mains, plus iZotope RX 11 Advanced for dialogue restoration, FabFilter Pro-Q 3 and Pro-DS, Cedar Audio DNS 8D dialogue noise suppressors, and Waves SoundGrid systems. Foley stages route film-grade pit-and-pad surfaces for Algarve cobblestone, Sintra UNESCO 1995 palace stone-floor, Belém Jerónimos UNESCO 1983 cloister marble, Lisbon Alfama tile, and Atlantic surf-pebble shingle.
Here is how the picture comes together. ADR booths route Sennheiser MKH 50, Neumann TLM 103, and Audio-Technica AT4081 ribbon for talent capture, plus Avid VENUE Lync for picture-sync. Music scoring partnerships route through Estúdios Valentim de Carvalho (the legendary Portuguese label dating to 1914), Sociedade Portuguesa de Autores SPA for songwriter rights, GDA (Gestão dos Direitos dos Artistas) for performer rights, AudioGest for label neighboring rights, and PassMúsica for music licensing.
Here is the short of it. Heritage sonic palette draws on Fado UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage 2011 — both Lisbon Fado (Alfama, Mouraria, Bairro Alto roots with Amália Rodrigues' archive, Mariza, Ana Moura, Camané, Carminho, Cuca Roseta, Cristina Branco today's roster) and Coimbra Fado (the rival academic-dress male-vocal custom from Coimbra University UNESCO 2013 founded 1290). Plus Cante Alentejano UNESCO Intangible 2014 (Alentejo men's polyphonic singing without instrumental accompaniment).
Here is what we have to work with. Today's references have Salvador Sobral (Amar Pelos Dois Eurovision 2017 winner — first Portuguese Eurovision victory), Madredeus (the 1990s world-music ensemble featured in Wim Wenders' Lisbon Story 1994), Buraka Som Sistema (electronic Lisbon Lusofonia hip-hop), Luís Represas and Sérgio Godinho (Carnation Revolution 1974 protest-singer lineage), and Sara Tavares (Cape Verde-Portuguese Lusofonia fusion). Streaming-mastering deliverables route Netflix NAM, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+ ProRes 4444 XQ Dolby Atmos, and Dolby Atmos Music for Apple Music spatial-audio mixes. ICA cash-rebates qualifying post-spend, IVA twenty-three percent invoicing, Segurança Social retained-crew compliance, and Código do Trabalho framework routes through our production-services partners.
