The Webelos were just here! Well, it was actually a couple of weekends ago. A Sunday to be exact. Anyway, the Webelos of Troop 30 were here to work on their Communicator badge. To do so, they toured our fine recording studio and then got to produce their very own radio spot. Using Bumpercar’s Nashville[…]

Scott and I updated our computers to Mac OS X Snow Leopard a couple of days ago. So far so good. Purportedly these are the enhancements and refinements that we are now enjoying: *Larger Icon Sizes *More Reliable Disc Eject *Sortable Search Results Source = www.apple.com/macosx/refinements/enhancements-refinements.html But rumor has it there’s a new OS X[…]
This summer we helped Red Deluxe produce these wonderful American Lung Association PSAs. The casting call for this job was wide open. Early on, we had a super raspy sounding guy on this. But we really needed someone unique for these spots. Now that I am watching these PSAs again, I can’t imagine anyone else[…]
I’m thinking about starting a Eagle Nebula/Pillars of Creation Album Art tumblr page. I know there are more out there. So far, here’s what’s I’ve got: About Charles WyrickMail | More Posts(367)
There’s lots of amazing photos in the Nasa on the Commons photo stream. This shot of Kennedy touring Blockhouse 34 at the Cape Canaveral Missile Test Annex is awesome. In this photo’s comments several people have asked about the possible identity of the man in sunglasses seated behind Kennedy. Is it Dr Evil? When I[…]
TELEPHONEME | MK12 from MK12 on Vimeo. Whoa. Now that is some truly superb sound design. I am talking earache-of-the-sublime good. Plus, to these ears, it sounds like a new take on sonic hauntology. Sure there are some glitch elements at play in the piece but the way in which the sound designers placed the[…]
Check. It. Out. I finally got a chance to try out the Auto-Tune Chamber here at Lucky Dog Audio. From a voice talent’s point of view, it’s kind of scary inside the chamber. With the unnatural gloam created by the blacklight glow lights, the acrid, cold taste to the air from the emissions of the[…]
Last year, we wondered aloud about the Eurovision song contest and… well… nobody could help us. Thankfully, now, FINALLY, our questions have been answered. In the June 28th edition of the New Yorker, Anthony Lane explains Eurovision. Gods of songs be praised! Just it time too, because Eurovision 2010 has unleashed this demonic meme-ster. If[…]

Check out our assist! Here’s a new spot we helped produce for Go USA Bid: Bring the FIFA World Cup back to the United States in 2018/2022. We cast the voice talent for the spot, recorded the VO, and provided the client with a final audio mix that they, in turn, posted to picture. Basically[…]

Today I spent the morning at Rose City Middle School for career day. A friend of mine who teaches art there asked me to come and talk to his class about audio work and advertising. I talked to three different groups of students. All of the groups wanted to know if we ever produced spots[…]
It’s been awhile since I’ve cooked up a book mixtape so let’s let this national poetry month playlist I worked up for my biweekly radio show on KABF stand in for my usual book music. The relation between the poems and song selection is fairly arbitrary. In some cases there is an obvious connection, in[…]
Here’s some recent work we produced for Blam and M.B. Piland promoting the Google… oops… I mean, Topeka Chamber of Commerce. About Charles WyrickMail | More Posts(367)
