About
One studio. Three disciplines. No handoffs.
- One team, one brief01
- Video, sound, and music are planned together from day one, not commissioned as separate jobs after the edit locks.
- Built for the story02
- Every technical decision, whether a cut, a mix, or a chord, serves the piece. Nothing is in there to pad a reel.
- Direct collaboration03
- You work with the person actually doing the work, from the first call through to final delivery.
- Sound from the start04
- Music and sound design begin at the script stage, not bolted on in the final mix.
Video, sound, and music are usually treated as three separate hires, briefed separately and stitched together at the end. We built North Cut the other way round.

Jonny Bee
Director & FounderJonny Bee founded North Cut Studios to close the gap between picture, sound, and score, working across all three so a project's tone is set once, at the start, and carried through to the final mix.
That means being in the room for the shoot, the edit, the sound pass, and the score, not brought in at the end to fix what the other departments left behind.
