HARBOR EXPANDS ITS LOS ANGELES STUDIO CAMPUS; READY FOR SUMMER 2022
Harbor is expanding its Los Angeles footprint with the addition of 10,000 square feet to its Santa Monica campus which will include new creative editorial suites, supervised finishing suites, and 4 new theaters, bringing its total Santa Monica presence to 10 theaters and 16,000 square feet for theatrical, episodic, and commercial picture and sound finishing.
Located at 2908 Nebraska Ave, Santa Monica, California, the new campus will be home to Harbor’s west coast dailies, picture, sound, visual effects, and motion graphics artists. The physical expansion will see Harbor grow its talent pool with the addition of select new artists, producers, engineers, and client services specialists. This will also allow clients to continue working across Harbor locations globally with one point of contact.
Wayne Schlock, AIA and Blue Point Architecture + Interiors, is collaborating with Harbor on this mid-century-inspired state-of-the-art facility, which will be completed this summer. With outdoor space and plenty of parking, attention has been paid to the smallest details of design and aesthetics in each theater and suite, all purpose-built to meet the needs of each genre and craft discipline.
Blending art, cutting-edge technology, and design, the campus will offer Dolby Atmos in picture and sound theaters, giving clients the ability to screen final sound and picture. Full capabilities will include 4K projection, 4K glass finishing, and 10Gb redundant private network connectivity to Harbor’s global infrastructure and facilities in New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Chicago, Windsor, and London.
Zak Tucker, Harbor founder & CEO, added, “It is our vision to create the premier home for creative clients and craft talent in Los Angeles. This campus will be the most modern and forward-looking in terms of technology and workflow. It will be intimately connected to Harbor’s global geographies allowing for artist, production, and technology workflow collaboration across territories. This expansion marks a major move in Harbor’s goal of being the preferred home for directors, cinematographers, studios, networks, streaming studios, agencies, and brands to execute signature production and post-production work at scale.”
