intern to apprentice program
We relaunched our internship program in 2021. However, there was a twist! Our internship transformed into a paid apprenticeship. Throughout the course of the program, apprentices gain valuable industry experience as well as a window into Boom Box Post's internal creative processes. We have graduated 25 interns, and are currently training our 4th apprentice.
We designed over 7,000 new sound effects for boom box library.
We branched out and created our own sound effect library company, Boom Box Library. We have created 11 different libraries with over 7,000 sound effects that you can purchase to help with your own sound design projects!

We have posted more than 440 blog posts
We have been posting weekly blog posts every Tuesday for the past 9 years, making more than 440 posts. We have written quite a lot; everything from resources for your sound projects to fun quizzes you can play when you’re bored.
We have presented 53 Lunch and Learn’s
We host monthly meetings that are followed by an educational lesson we call a “Lunch & Learn.” Topics include a wide variety of sound related skills from noise reduction to synthesis. We have successfully presented 53 lunch and learn’s that are all posted on our blog as sound resources.
we have welcomed new members to our team
Starting with just two people, the expansion of the company to a team of 19 individuals is truly exhilarating. With supervisors, re-recording mixers, editors, and assistants joining forces, we have assembled a team that brings exceptional knowledge and dedication to their work. We are very happy with the collection of employee’s that started in Boom Box Post’s first year, to the fresh faces that have been hired recently, and everyone in between.
A huge thank you to all those who have supported us through this journey over the past 9 years, and here’s to the next 9 years!
