THE BIG AGENCY
Recording · Editing · Reels · Post-production · Online booking
A video podcast studio in Amman with more than five sets, up to four synchronised Sony A7 cameras, acoustically treated rooms and a broadcast microphone on its own channel for every speaker. Recording, editing, colour, sound design and social clips are all handled in house. Rates start at JOD 120 per hour, and the studio is open 24 hours a day.
Three primary rooms, each lit and dressed for a different kind of episode. Sets are flexible and are re-dressed around what a production actually needs rather than offered as a fixed menu.
Capacity: 2 to 3 people
The signature set: deep blue backdrop with layered practical lighting, built for interview formats where the frame needs colour and depth. It photographs well on camera and reads strongly in vertical clips, which is why most guest-interview shows are recorded here.
Capacity: 2 to 3 people
A clean neutral set with controlled light and no visual noise. The right choice for corporate episodes, explainer formats and anything that has to sit inside an existing brand identity without the room competing with it.
Capacity: 2 to 3 people
A warmer, more relaxed setting with soft furnishing and layered depth behind the subjects. Suits long conversational episodes and founder interviews where the room is meant to feel like a place rather than a studio.
Published in full, in Jordanian dinars. The per-episode rate drops as the episode count rises, because setup time is the fixed cost - recording several episodes in one visit is always cheaper per episode than several separate visits.

The full inventory, published so you can judge it against any other studio you are considering rather than take a general claim of quality on trust.
Up to 5 bodies
Up to four run synchronised in a single session - a wide, a framed shot on each speaker, and a spare angle for cutaways. Synchronised timecode is what lets the edit cut on the conversation instead of holding one static angle.
Telephoto
The interview lens. Compresses the background and separates the speaker from the set, which is what gives an episode the depth people read as "professional" without being able to name why.
Wide angle
Carries the establishing wide shot and the room-in-frame angles. All glass in the studio is G Master, so colour and rendering stay consistent between angles and no grading time is spent matching lenses.
Multi-channel
Every speaker records to an isolated channel. That is the single most important decision in a podcast setup: one problem voice can be corrected afterwards without touching anyone else, which is impossible on a shared channel.
One per speaker
Dynamic broadcast microphones on adjustable boom arms, positioned per speaker rather than shared across the table. Boom arms keep the microphone at a consistent distance, which is what keeps levels even across a long episode.
All sets
Treatment on the walls, not just soft furnishing. This matters more than any microphone in the building: reverb from an untreated room cannot be removed cleanly by software, and it is the single thing that makes self-recorded podcasts sound self-recorded.
Per set
Key, fill and practical lighting rigged per room and adjusted per guest rather than left at a default. Skin tones and glasses reflections are the two things a default rig always gets wrong.
The studio is one part of a production team, which is why an episode does not have to leave the building between recording and publishing.

More than five sets and configurations, including three primary rooms: the Blue Room, the Minimal Room and the Lounge. Sets are adjusted to what a given production needs.
Two to three people on camera comfortably in each room, with one microphone on its own isolated channel per speaker.
