About Me

Cheap$k8 $tudios is a new video/audio studio located in central Connecticut. Our main focus so far has been on local bands, helping them be seen and heard. We specialize in "on location" recordings. Cheap$k8 $tudios is a small private owned organization with ties to many local studios and sound companies. We have many capabilities from small private events to large scale corporate needs.
Our goal is to be flexible as well as affordable and yet still be able to deliver professional work and results, to help you look and/or sound the best you possibly can for your money. If you need an affordable, professional studio to come to...or need them to come to you...send us a message.
Some of our work is already on YouTube (local bands) as well as on DVD. Videos have been used from the DVD's and posted on YouTube. Scroll down to see some of the posted videos. Hope you enjoy them.
