The acclaimed audio post-production company, AnEFX, has signed on to package the sound for two new fall dramas, USA Network’s Fairly Legal and NBC’s Perfect Couples.
NBC’s Perfect Couples focuses on three couples as they discover how to obtain and maintain the ideal relationship. AnEFX puts their award-winning team to work customizing and augmenting the sound to the unique tone and pace of Perfect Couples. The vast experience and passion of this team of sound editors is sure to elevate the show’s quality and capture audiences.
USA’s Fairly Legal tells the story of a divorced San Francisco lawyer Kate Reed (Sarah Shahi), who leaves her practice after becoming frustrated with the inexhaustible bureaucracy and injustice in her field. She goes on to become a mediator, and is able to find middle ground for a wide range of warring clients. AnEFX artfully tailored the audio post-production to connect to the show’s light, quirky tone and the picturesque San Francisco setting. Through excellent audio design, the team amplifies the impact of each scene to create an unparalleled viewing experience.
AnEFX specializes in unique, personal and exceptional sound editing for the post-production process. The team has worked on several hit television series, including USA’s Covert Affairs and Royal Pains, Syfy’s Warehouse 13, CW’s Gossip Girl and Battlestar Gallactica. These recent projects demonstrate AnEFX’s consistency in producing optimal sound quality. AnEFX kicks off the fall season strong with these two stimulating programs: USA’s Fairly Legal and NBC’s Perfect Couples.

A natural sound is the audio taken from the actual source. Sometimes natural sound does not meet audience expectations because they are disappointed by the sound of reality and influenced by sound ideology.
Our sound designers help in the planning stages of film and television shows. We work with the director and post producer to shape the overall soundtrack of the film/show to manipulate the audio elements and create a desired mood.
The audio recorded on set needs to be properly mixed by a dialogue editor. At AnEFX, locating the proper take from the recorded audio, checking sync and eliminating extraneous noise so that the mixer can clean the dialogue is all crucial.
Foley supplies the film with subtle and everyday sounds that the microphone often misses. These background noises refer to anything from footsteps to doors closing to splashing in the pool that makes the film/show seem realistic.
ADR is the process of recording and replacing voices after the original shooting sequence. If the film is shot on a sound stage, the dialogue recorded will probably be used in the final film because there is usually no background influence.
