Technically known as the process of digitally altering the colour of a motion picture, we like to call it adding atmosphere and enhancing the editorial of our clients’ work through total colour manipulation. Depending on the requirements of the project, we use DaVinci Resolve Studio, Avid DS or Avid Symphony.

Grading and finishing or on-line editing go hand in hand but are still distinctive skills and we have the experience to complete all projects to the exacting standards and creativity required.

Our graphics department compliments our offline and online editing services. Our work ranges from clean-up and compositing through to full 2D and 3D motion graphics and effects. We offer design solutions for title sequences tailored for your production.

Editing is at the core of what we do. We understand the value of a convivial editing environment and that the edit suite is at the heart of the story-telling process. Here at High Wire we understand that it is collaborative. We can help you tell your story using our in house talent or choose from the extensive pool of talented freelance editors. All of our suites operate with the latest software from Avid, DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Creative cloud.

We are one of Ireland’s leading subtitling and translation service providers. With all BAI productions requiring hard of hearing subtitling, we are the go-to company for this type of work. Our experience in this area is vast and we have been supplying translation subtitles (from Irish to English) for Ireland’s Irish language TV station TG4 since 1997. We deliver closed captions and open subtitles and file formats to suit European and U.S. broadcasters. We also provide file formats that meet the requirements for iTunes and Netflix. 

Audio description is a new service that we offer for blind and visually impaired consumers of visual media. This is a fantastic service for people with sight loss or impairment. The normal soundtrack of a television programme or film is accessible on a separate track on which a narrator explains during gaps in the dialogue, what is happening on screen.

An emphasis on narrative, creative thinking and fine detail goes into every mix at High Wire by our experienced sound mixers. Our 5.1 studio has been tailored to meet the highest international standards.

Our spacious voice over booth is comfortable and bathed in light. Our studio runs Source-Connect, Zoom and Skype for dial-in sessions. We have a variety of microphones for location sound matching.

A new service we offer is ambisonic audio which is a method of listening in a 360 degree fully immersive soundscape. This goes hand in hand with the developing virtual reality industry which requires 360 degree audio solutions. Being inside the sound can be more mesmerising than any screen so give your audience a truly captivating moment!
