TOM DAVIS - owner/operator

 

Tom Davis has been working in the entertainment field in the Los Angeles area since 1975.  Starting as a video camera-man for General Telephone, he has spent time in virtually all areas of video, film, and music production.  In 1986 he designed and built TEC Award-winning Post Logic Studios, and turned a single audio room into a six room, 12,000 sq. ft. post production audio facility in the heart of Hollywood, making Post Logic one of the largest and best equipped independent facilities in the industry.

In March of 1990, Tom became Director Of Audio of 525 Post Production and put the picture-only facility in the audio business. Introducing the industry to a faster and better way to deliver finished digital audio to a digital video master via the first ever 24 track hard disk work station.  The International Monitor Awards, sponsored by the International Teleproduction Society honored Tom with the award for his work on the Zoo-TV special in 1993.  He holds a TEC AWARD nomination from 1991, and both he and 525 Post Production were nominated in 1992.   He currently holds a 1993 Monitor Award nomination for "Rolling Stone 93 - The Year In Review".  He also holds a CLIO nomination for 1990.  Tom and his crew hold a 2006 Emmy Nomination for the PBS special Barry Manilow Music and Passion.

 

Nashville, Tennessee is now home for Tom Davis and SeisMic Sound.  Installing the first Euphonix digitally controlled audio console with a 24 track Fairlight digital hard disk recorder brought state-of-the-art mixing and sound design for film and television to Music City in 1994.  Concert specials, independent feature films and television series are now commonplace in Nashville.  Tom has become the "go-to" guy in Nashville to artists, managers and record labels when producing a television event or a concert DVD.
