Audio PostProduction for Jennifer Beals’ New Police Drama on FOX, “The Chicago Code”
February 2011
Resolution Digital Studios’ audio team, Bryen Hensley and Steve Maslan, provided audio postproduction ADR services for Fox TV’s new police drama series, The Chicago Code.
The Chicago Code follows the Windy City's most powerful and respected cops as they fight crime and expose corruption in Chicago. It’s a fast-paced series centered on JAREK WYSOCKI (Jason Clarke), a larger-than-life veteran cop who wields considerable power thanks to his relationship with his ex-partner, TERESA COLVIN (Jennifer Beals), who is now the city's first female superintendent in charge of a 10,000-member police force.
The series is set and shot on location in Chicago, an urban backdrop that comes ripe with all of the noise and sound challenges that one would expect from a major city—(L-trains, airplanes, sirens, and lots of traffic). The producers of the series wanted the "sound" of the show to be authentic; good, clean ADR was a key to delivering.
A production of 20th Century Fox Television and MiddKid Productions, The Chicago Code is written and executive-produced by Shawn Ryan ("The Shield") and Tim Minear ("Dollhouse"). Charles McDougall ("Big Love") directed and executive-produced the pilot.
