SOUNDFIRM’S NEW BUILDING OPENS FOR BUSINESS!

Soundfirm’s new purpose-built facility on Fennell Street, Port Melbourne, is now open for business!

After nearly two decades at our Crockford Street facility, our wonderful new building on Fennell Street marks the next step in our long history – offering film-makers access to the best technology and creativity in Australia, and beyond!

Proudly independent, and Australian owned, Soundfirm’s new facility on Fennell Street allows us to offer clients the ‘full-package of post services’, with picture and sound post production resources all under the one roof.

Our new building has been set up with one aim in mind: to increase work-flow efficiencies in post, and to provide clients with genuine flexibility when it comes to both tech and talent!

Soundfirm’s flag-ship ‘Theatre 1’ on Fennell Street sees Dolby® Atmos™ arrive in Australia for the first time: the revolutionary sound delivery technology from Dolby Technologies, which allows film-makers and distributors access to the some of the very latest advances in sound-track production and delivery.

Keep an eye on our website  for a ‘virtual tour’ of the new building, in the meantime, please feel free to contact Helen or Mel, who would be more than happy to put the kettle on and show you ‘round!

If something a little stronger is required, our new next door neighbour is none other than the wonderful 'Matilda Bay Brewery' (which had nothing to do with the re-location - we promise)!


Dolby® Atmos™ arrives in Australia @ Soundfirm

Soundfirm installs Dolby® Atmos™ into their new flag-ship theatre: the first and only Atmos mixing theatre in Australia!

We’re proud to announce the installation of Dolby Atmos into our Melbourne Facility: the first and only post production theatre in Australia to deploy this ground-breaking technology.

Dolby Atmos unleashes the potential of sound in storytelling by giving film-makers and mixers the creative freedom to easily place or move specific sounds anywhere in the movie theatre, not just wherever there happens to be speakers.

The result is what moviegoers have described as the most engaging and immersive cinema sound experience ever, propelling cinema sound to the level that image has achieved with its 4K, 3D and 48FPS technologies. At the same time, Dolby Atmos promises to revolutionise movie distribution by eliminating the need for multiple print masters: a single delivery file will now play faithfully in any theatre.

Soundfirm joins an elite list of just 30 facilities globally that are able to offer this ground-breaking technology.  Our beautiful Theatre 1, at our Port Melbourne facility, is set-up for Atmos mixes (plus 7.1/5.1 down-mixes), and has been built to provide  the Feature Film and Cinema Commercials markets with the finest mixing and delivery environment in the country.

Since launching just over a year ago, over 40 films around the world have been announced or released with Dolby Atmos sound, with more  than 100 screens enabled globally.

For more information, please contact Helen, Mel, Chris or Roger @ Soundfirm, Melbourne.
