Awaaz Media is not taking on work yet. The services and project types below describe what this studio is being set up to do. None of it is a completed job for a client.
Awaaz Media makes audio, video, post and delivery for broadcasters, publishers and brands, in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu. The studio sits alongside the group's own radio stations, so the work is planned to broadcast deadlines rather than around them.
Radio
Podcast
Imaging
CommunityEnd to end, or any part of it.
Programmes, station imaging, promos, sponsor reads and podcast series, recorded and mixed for the way each platform actually plays them back.
Studio and location shoots, interview sets and multi-camera event recordings for broadcast and on demand, shot with the edit already planned rather than discovered afterwards. Work made first for a social feed sits with Internet Media in the same group, and we point you there rather than approximate it.
Edit, colour, sound design, mix and master. We take on work that arrived from someone else's crew as readily as we finish our own.
Scripts adapted rather than translated word for word, then voiced by speakers who grew up in the language, so the emphasis survives the move.
Broadcast specs, podcast feeds, station libraries and archive masters, prepared in the formats each destination will accept without a phone call. Standalone captioning and batch cutdowns are Vidz's line of work in the same group, and versions built for a social platform are Internet Media's.
Sponsor messages, campaign spots and longer brand storytelling, made to sit inside a schedule without sounding like the moment listeners tune out.
Awaaz Media is the production arm of a group building a network of online radio stations, and that shapes how we work. Awaaz means voice. A station does not get to file late, redo the mix tomorrow or hope the audience forgives a rough edit, and the studio works to that standard from the first job, for broadcasters, publishers and brands.
We work in English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu, and the difference is not cosmetic. A script translated word for word lands flat: the joke dies, the emphasis moves to the wrong syllable and the audience hears an outsider. A script that is adapted keeps all three. Everything is written, recorded and mixed in the language the audience listens in, by speakers of that language, and the work is run from Melbourne.
Where a brief is really a social channel plan, or a run of fixed scope cutdowns from footage you already hold, we say so and point you to Internet Media or Vidz in the same group, rather than writing our own quote around work another studio here is built for. The company behind the studio is SUKH SANDHU PTY LTD.
No. English only briefs are taken on the same terms. What we add is the ability to make the same piece properly in Hindi, Punjabi or Urdu as well, rather than bolting a translation onto a finished master at the end.
Yes. It is work the studio is set up for. Send the rushes, the delivery specs and whatever paperwork exists, and we will tell you honestly what can be saved in the grade and the mix and what needs to be shot again.
Yes. Record sessions can run remotely with a producer on the line, and delivery is digital. Anything that needs a room, a camera or a treated space is arranged here in Melbourne.
With a conversation about where the finished thing has to go. Broadcast, feed, big screen or a phone held sideways, because that decides format, length, how we shoot and how we record long before anyone writes a script.
