Karen Martin is the real deal. She is extremely smart, a terrific producer who is super creative while also knowing how to get the most value on screen. Karen has worked in many genres and always delivers top quality. I would welcome the chance to work with Karen again.

Jim is a very talented audio mixer/director/sound editor. He is a delight to work with. Talent loves and respects him and with good reason. He is knowledgeable, resourceful and a real asset on any project. I've hired him many times and will do so again. He makes every show/project better.

Karen Martin is one of those people you come around once in a career. She's that tremendous mix of technical savvy and creative brilliance. We met each other 20 years ago and I still call her for advice when I'm not sure about something. Every time we were together it's not only a pleasure it's fun work - we wouldn't have it any other way.
