How to soundproof a studio

 A soundproofed studio with a soundproof studio door provides much more flexibility and can save you both money and time. You will get that location shoots might throw all types of nasty and noisy surprises, such as people chatting, printer noises, doors banging, background noise, traffic, sirens etc. If you think that your office or your preferred location might be in a quiet area, think twice.
 
Where should you begin?

Before you commence, you have to make some choices first. The size of the space, its price, location, associated amenities should be taken into consideration. Share the information about the shot types before booking with the technician or studio manager, and they will be able to provide you some consultation to make your shoot simpler. You may also have to install fabric wrapped acoustic panels to ensure noise reduction.

 

What actions would you utilize?
 
What exactly is the subject be doing? While walking and talking, just walk into the shot or is he seated? At 4 square feet stage area, it will just allow him an easy walk into the shot and out of it for a mid to full body shot. You may also install sound panel fabric to ensure sound reduction.
   
Amenities

Before booking, check if the amenity has much external interference. Sometimes, a studio might have two spaces. It will be best to enquire about the other shoot booked on that day and check if the studio would still provide a completely soundproofed ambiance.
 
Check if the green screen studio has STC 50 door so that you can further lessen the sound.
 
Inspect the chairs that the clients, crew, cast and the subjects would be sitting on during takes. It is also applicable on footwear and clothing. Avoid any new leathers, zips, sequins, and jewelry etc.
