Our services include:
-
Clear and intelligible dialogue is crucial for storytelling. We meticulously clean and edit dialogue tracks to remove any unwanted noise, align audio with video, and ensure consistency in volume and tone across scenes.
-
We edit and place sound effects to enhance the realism and emotional impact of your film. This process involves creating, sourcing, and layering sounds that complement the visual narrative, from subtle background noises to dynamic action sounds.
-
We work closely with our foley production partners to create immersive footsteps, cloth movements, and prop sound effects. Creating multiple layers of audio is the key to enhancing storytelling.
-
In the mixing phase, we balance all audio elements, dialogue, sound effects, background sounds, foley, and music, to create a cohesive and polished soundtrack. This includes creating mixes for various formats such as stereo and surround sound, catering to different viewing environments and distribution platforms.
Half-Light Audio was founded by Conor Barron in 2009. In 2011 he designed and commissioned a state-of the-art audio post production studio in Cork City, Ireland. The studio quickly became the home of ADR and voiceover recording in the south of Ireland. In 2021 Conor closed the recording studio to focus on his career as a supervising sound editor and re-recording mixer.
Testimonials
"Remote ADR makes an already anxiety ridden process that much more challenging. Conor Barron and the team at Half-Light worked fastidiously and professionally to get us through our session seamlessly; pampering the talent and delivering high quality audio without it ever seeming like we weren't there."
MARK MANGINI - Supervising Sound Editor, DUNE
“Producing an audiobook during a pandemic had a few extra challenges so hats off to Dominic Gribeen, along with David Roper at Heavy Entertainment in London and Conor Barron at Half-Light Studio in Cork”.
