ABOUT US
Cave Bat is an audio post production company started by like-minded audio professionals Austin Rowe and Khorwyn Davenport. They believe in the importance of storytelling and excel at communicating the emotions and ideas through audio. They come from a diverse array of backgrounds that have allowed them to form a team that is well-versed in every area of audio post-production, as well as film workflow and communication.
When a project is brought to Cave Bat, it is treated with the same amount of respect and care that the director has for it. As creatives themselves, they understand the creative process and go to great lengths to deliver the best quality production that is specifically tailored to the needs of that project.

"It's unfortunate to think that sound design rarely ever gets the credit it deserves. But without it, there would be no cinema. Austin & Khory have made it their mission to bring sound to the forefront of everything they work on. They're as meticulous as they are willing to take risks, both very important traits to have in collaborators. They're never satisfied with complacency and instead are always striving for a true sense of perfection. Most importantly, they're great communicators and incredibly easy and fun to work with."

"Austin and Khory worked with SMPTE during the Summer of 2019 to produce wonderful video content for SMPTE’s 2019 annual event. They were quite professional in their approach, asking probing questions, offering suggestions, drafting, scripting, and producing the content. SMPTE staff found them to be passionate, collaborative, creative, and full of interesting ideas.

"Austin and Khory are two incredibly smart and gifted post-audio professionals that have delivered in every aspect I could imagine in regards to post-production sound. I've collaborated with them on three short films now (they literally saved one project in particular), and the experience has been a blessing. They're great guys who truly love and obsess over their craft, and I can't recommend them highly enough."

"I had just assumed that I'd be choosing a stock audio track for this project, so I was thrilled to find out that our video would have original music composed by the team...I'm confident that they will be successful in the digital audio space."
"I had just assumed that I'd be choosing a stock audio track for this project, so I was thrilled to find out that our video would have original music composed by the team. They took my feedback into account and then considered the video's purpose and audience before composing an original 90-second soundtrack with voiceover and sound effects. It was so impressive! I'm confident that they will be successful in the digital audio space."
