Who's behind The APC?
A vetted team of freelance sound designers, mixers, composers, and editors. Built around a core network. Led by dom storrs.
Who are you for?
We're indie, for indie. For now our focus is on helping indie filmmakers and smaller studios hire a dynamic, flexible workforce to suit their production. Scaling when needed.
How do you scale for bigger projects?
We assemble a bespoke team depending on scope. Other editors and disciplines are introduced depending on timeframes, budget and workload.
How do you manage enquiries and deadlines?
You have one point of contact: dom. He manages the team, scheduling, and ensures quality control. It will feel like you're working under the one roof.
How do you control quality?
Creatives are encouraged to work by their preferred methods to get the best results for the project. That's the most important thing.
When it to comes to the mix we have structured protocols and well formatted templates in place to ensure consistency, quality control and adhere to industry standards should the project have to move outside of our system
What type of projects do you support?
Our support is broad, but we specialise in long-form projects like documentaries, series and features. Our work ranges from individual filmmakers to larger production companies delivering bespoke audio up to 7.1 surround sound.
What disciplines do you cover?
We can cover all your audio post-production needs for your project. That's the beauty of it – you let us know what you need and we will find a package to suit.
Services include: dialogue editing, ADR, voice-over [recording & production], ambience design, foley, sound design, sound editing, music editing, music supervision, music composition and final mixes [streaming / broadcast / film up to 7.1 surround]
Where are you based?
The power in this is that we are remote. That's what keeps costs down. Our core team is based across Manchester and the North of England. We have access to a range of professional studios and spaces when we need them and when we need to collaborate in person.

Why operate like this?
We believe in the power of collaboration, our network and lifting people up. We celebrate our community's talents and want to share them with the world by bringing our skillsets together, to compete on the big stage.
We have a core team and an extended network on standby ready to be assembled when needed. This allows us to be flexible, scalable and cost-effective without compromising on quality.
How can I get involved?
Our network is carefully crafted to ensure quality over quantity. We want enough members to ensure we can deliver at the highest level but also to make sure opportunities are available to the existing members of our collective without having too much toe treading.
That said we are an equal opportunities network and welcome diversity and talent no matter where you are in the world. We also believe in the power of bringing the next generation through and can offer mentorship and work opportunities to those who are looking to get into the industry.
