I have loved working at RWS Studios this week. The facilities are modern, spacious, clean, and well…read moremaintained and the staff (particularly Chris B.) are friendly, professional, and very communicative. I've been using a smaller studio to work on a writing project and I could not be happier! The piano was beautiful and sounded great. The studio was also equipped with a nice amp, electric piano (MIDI compatible), and full drum set. A full band could actually rehearse there. A door to one of the large studios was left open and so I was able to see inside and it was huge -- I imagined it would be the perfect place to rehearse a large show or hold dance auditions. It's literally a 20-25 minute express train ride from 42nd street, the location/neighborhood looks safe and clean, and there are stores and restaurants within one or two blocks. Definitely I look forward to working here again. Thank you Chris and RWS Studios for creating this great creative space.

I've worked with Frankie at Mixerhead Studio on three of my songs, and each time the results have…read morebeen outstanding. Frankie is wonderful to collaborate with--he really listens to your requirements, pays close attention to detail, and always tries his best to bring your vision to life. The finished mixes came out professionally with very high standards, and I've received many compliments on the quality. Although Frankie takes his time with the mixing process, the end result is definitely worth the wait. If he can improve on efficiency while keeping the same high quality, it would make the experience even better. Overall, I highly recommend Mixhead Studio and Frankie for anyone who wants professional-level production and a thoughtful, dedicated engineer.

Working with Monty at Astoria Video Auditions was great! It was such a relaxed, no-pressure…read moreenvironment. His studio was so clean and professionally set. A lot of places are not open on weekends or charge more for those days, but Astoria Video Auditions keeps the prices fair and affordable for all of us actors who need high quality work at the last minute. They communicate everything along the way so there's no room for confusion. I really can't speak any more highly on the experience. I was able to receive my files within a couple hours of the shoot, and they'll even work with you to get it sooner if need be. Would definitely work with them again!

One of the only studio to use a real microphone on top of the camera and professional lightning, which 100% changes the dynamic of your audition. Then i met with Monty, the nicest and most helpful guy you could dream of. With his experience as a director all you gotta do is trusting him and he will push you to achieve nothing but excellence. I m sold. See you soon guys and thank you so much.
