Audio post studio Mr. Bronx has relocated from its SoHo site and opened a 12,500-square-foot facility in the heart of NYC’s Flatiron district. The combined studio and office space pairs advanced audio rooms and technologies with custom-built accommodations to meet agency and brand client needs.
Led by founder and mixer David Wolfe and exec producer Hanna Choi, Mr. Bronx and its new studio rooms have already been home to work on campaigns for Adidas, Coca-Cola, American Express, LG, Sephora, Kia, and the ACLU; Supercell games such as Clash of Clans and Brawl Stars; and the trailer for Hayao Miyazaki’s The Boy and the Heron, which opens in the U.S. come December. Senior sound designers/mixers Eric Hoffman and Geoff Strasser additionally have created the soundscapes for an experiential motion ride and two documentary films: Lakota Nation vs. United States, an IFC Films release, and a New York Times Critic’s Pick this summer; and Boil Alert, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last month. Other TV and film credits include Beyonce’s Black Is King, Homecoming and Lemonade; HBO’s Random Acts of Flyness and 2 Dope Queens; Hulu’s Ramy; FX’s Welcome to Wrexham, and film premieres at the Venice, Tribeca, Sundance, and SXSW Film Festivals.
Mr. Bronx’s audio bays feature two 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos control rooms with isolation booths and a third room configured for 5.1 surround. Studio A includes a 160-inch projection screen and projector, while all three rooms connect to the 145-sq-foot ADR stage via Dante audio networking and live webcam feeds. The audio engineers utilize OBS to screencast visuals from multiple sources in a custom layout, meaning clients on Zoom can view screenshares of picture references alongside webcam feeds of the control room and talent booths all at once. The strategic room configurations allow clients to quickly plug in audio from their laptops to the speaker system, while wired and wireless talkback remotes and mics are at all three listening positions of the main control rooms. These features come together to provide an elevated listening experience.
Choi joined Mr. Bronx in 2021 as EP, connecting with Wolfe who founded the studio in 2011. As a part of Alanda Ltd, Mr. Bronx’s sister companies include BANDIT Editorial, BUTTER Music and Sound, Honor Society, and Scout Design and Animation.
