(ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, NJ) -- Independent film and television production company Phiphen Pictures will open Phiphen Studios in Englewood Cliffs, NJ a boutique, state-of-the-art post-production and production office facility in 2022. Phiphen Studios was created by a group of award-winning filmmakers upon seeing the need to support New Jersey’s vibrant film community and recognizing the opportunity to help it grow.
Phiphen Studios will consist of a production office space tailored for the completion of projects as well as a 25-seat 4K theater available for screenings, special events, and presentations. It will house multiple private offices, executive suites, a conference room, and kitchens. It also will include boutique offline edit rooms adaptable to DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Premiere, and Avid Media Composer. The audio department will be comprised of two mix rooms outfitted for 5.1 mixing and voice recording, while also offering full-service sound design, editorial services, and mixing, including ADR and VO. Other services will range from Online Editorial to Color Grading to Mastering.
With the recent reinstatement of New Jersey’s film and television 30-35% tax credit (plus 2% diversity bonus), this marks a significant moment for new business in the state and highlights New Jersey’s commitment to the film community, not only in the tri-state area, but world-wide. “We are very excited to welcome Phiphen Pictures to our fast-growing production community,” said Steven Gorelick, Executive Director of the New Jersey Motion Picture and Television Commission. “A top-flight post-production facility such as this is essential to the critical infrastructure that the state is working to build.”
“We are enjoying a record year for motion picture and television work In New Jersey, and the arrival of Phiphen Studios further demonstrates our attractiveness as a production destination,” said Governor Phil Murphy. “The word is out and the people making decisions on where to film are clearly taking notice.”
Phiphen Studios C.E.O. Jane Oster Sinisi added, “As a proud New Jersey native, opening the studio is a dream come true. We have the unique opportunity to support the local film business in the state, while providing a state-of-the-art facility to filmmakers from around the world.
