On Location
Location Sound Recording in New Zealand
Here is how this works in practice. Capturing clean dialogue and real atmosphere across New Zealand's different production environments needs both tech precision and practical field experience. Our sound recording teams have worked in Auckland's dense urban soundscape, on the wind-exposed ridges above Queenstown, inside heritage buildings in Dunedin, and at the geothermal sites around Rotorua where ambient noise running is key. Whether you are recording a drama series in Wellington's Te Aro or a natural history documentary on the West Coast, our Location Sound Services deliver usable, broadcast-quality audio from the first take.
Here is the short of it. Our Sound Recordist Team operates Wireless Audio Systems configured for drama, documentary, and commercial formats, with frequency planning completed in advance to avoid trouble in tricky multi-source environments. Boom Operators work closely with camera and lighting departments to keep clean pickup without compromising the frame. For productions needing extra layers, our Post-prod Audio pipeline handles Dialogue Editing and ADR, integrating location recordings with studio-recorded replacement dialogue and ambience tracks. Pre-Production Planning includes technical riders, kit lists, and location recces so that audio needs are built into the production schedule from the outset.
