Even as the film industry has gone through more changes in the last five years than the previous 60,
post (and the process of commercial post) has remained largely unchanged:
You go to a soulless building full of people who put form in front of function, inevitably leaving
with a piece that shows little or no improvement from the parts you brought in.
This is where it stops.
We are the new post. Post post, if you will. Infrastructure is no longer the sell in our new world,
it’s the table stakes. From here on out we emphasize creative talent over soulless machines,
and final product over obvious processes. Let’s face it, all post companies know how to “do” post.
We just do it better.
We are the Talking Machine. Welcome to our world.
