BrightFrame Studios expands to West Coast with new Atmos facility

BURBANK, CA - BrightFrame Studios (www.brightframe.net) will officially open the doors to its new Burbank facility on July 17th, expanding its presence to the West Coast. The company has an existing operation in New Orleans, and specializes in Dolby Atmos mixing, film and TV re-recording, ADR, dialogue editing and vocal production.

The new Burbank location is owned by Erick Bardales, in partnership with Dr. Jenny Mains, who opened the New Orleans studio facility back in November of 2024. Bardales, who also supported the New Orleans launch, oversaw the technical design and integration of both facilities, including the Dolby Atmos and broadcast rooms, working in collaboration with RSPE Audio Solutions. The new Burbank facility is centered around a PMC-powered 9.1.4 Dolby Atmos mixing room that features an Avid S6 console and a curated selection of premium microphones, preamps and outboard gear.



In addition to music mixing, film and TV re-recording, ADR, dialogue editing, VO work and vocal production, the new studio is also fully equipped for writing sessions, music production and vocal tracking, making it well suited for labels, engineers and producers developing new projects. It's designed for flexibility and ease of use, and is bookable by the hour, day or week. Remote streaming is possible via Audiomovers for realtime collaboration and feedback.

“This new BrightFrame facility has been designed to meet the technical and workflow requirements of professionals working across multiple formats,” explains Bardales. “Within weeks of completing the build, we hosted Bart Schoudel, who mixed tracks for the new Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco project right here in the room. That initial session led to us mixing the entire Atmos version of the album, which was a strong start and a clear validation of the space. We’re looking forward to opening our doors to more exciting projects.”
