We’ve made many films ourselves, but nothing like this, this really had impact. Just the details in trying to reach people & hit them & make them FEEL something- so that they would DO something.

The 522 team is great to work with. On our most recent project with them they took our content and vision and created a video that surpassed our expectations! They were extremely responsive throughout the production process and took the time to make sure they truly understood our goals and direction for the project.

The team at 522 productions and specifically Cara as she was my point person, were phenomenal in making the steps to filming seamless and given my baby was part of it, that was no easy task. They went above and beyond with clear instructions and set up a calm and relaxing environment that could otherwise be expected to feel overwhelming. I wish I could give the team more than 5 stars.

I could not be anymore happier with the results given. The communication from the start sold me with making the process very easy and fast. From seeing the production on the website to getting our production back I am very pleased with the work.
Jon, who filmed the event for us was top notch. I coordinated the event from California while the sales reps in the area hosted the event. Jon and I took calls so he could make sure het got everything we needed for this event to be filmed and ensure to ask questions so nothing was missed. The sales reps said Jon made the process very seamless and how he made everyone feel comfortable.
From making the process easier being in another state, to making the event successful and capturing all moments, I definitely recommend.

Seema Rani's Review Sourced from Google
The management shows clear favoritism in the office. Employees who are close to managers get special treatment, more flexibility, and fewer restrictions, while others are treated very differently. This partial behavior creates an unhealthy environment and affects team morale badly. Equal treatment and professionalism are seriously lacking here.

How much does it cost to hire an audio production company?
The cost of hiring audio production companies varies depending on the type of project, the experience of the producer or sound engineer, the location of the recording studio, and the complexity of the final content.
Typical hourly rates according to multiple agency sources include:
Recording studio time: $50-$200 per hour, depending on studio equipment and location
Audio engineer or sound engineer: $50-$150 per hour
Music producer: $50-$500+ per hour, depending on experience and reputation
Professional audio editors: $90-$200 per hour for complex audio projects such as narrative podcasts or film dialogue editing.
In large media markets such as Los Angeles or New York, premium studios equipped with Pro Tools systems, advanced mixing consoles, and acoustic recording rooms may charge $100-$300+ per hour.
Some studios also offer daily rates. Mid-range professional studios often cost $500-$1,000 per day for recording sessions.
When businesses hire audio production agencies for larger projects, total budgets often fall into these ranges:

Simple projects like podcasts or social media audio may be completed within a few days, while larger projects such as feature film soundtracks or music albums can take several months.Â
Large productions such as feature films, documentaries, or television series require more time because they involve extensive sound design, dialogue editing, Foley recording, and multi-channel mixing.Â

Video production and corporate media
Video games and interactive media
Live events and concerts
What should I look for in an audio production agency portfolio?
Key factors decision-makers should evaluate when reviewing an audio production agency portfolio include:
A diverse range of projects Strong audio production agencies typically showcase 10 to 30 portfolio projects covering a wide range of work, such as commercials, podcasts, music production, video production, and sound design.
High-quality audio samples or demo reels (30-120 seconds each) Most professional portfolios include short audio demo clips between 30 seconds and 2 minutes that highlight specific elements, like dialogue clarity, music production, and acoustic sound design.
Evidence of experience across multiple industries The best audio production companies demonstrate experience across 3-5 industries, indicating that the agency can adapt to different creative and technical requirements.
Collaboration with recognized brands, artists, or musicians Many companies highlight notable clients or collaborations, such as brands, advertising agencies, or well-known artists. Even a portfolio that includes 5-10 recognizable clients or campaigns can demonstrate credibility and industry trust.
Proof of measurable impact or performance results Some portfolios include metrics that demonstrate the success of the project. For example, videos with strong sound design can increase social media shares by 35%, and sonic branding elements help 90% of consumers remember a brand.
Recent work from the past 2-3 years Because audio technology and digital media evolve quickly, a strong portfolio should highlight recent projects completed within the last 24-36 months.Â
