Our buddy Henry, the creative super-genius at Bumpercar Advertising, had a pretty swell idea for radio recently. The idea? Let’s create a radio ad with a bunch of kids and without scripts. To which we said, “What the! How we gonna. . !” The answer: interviews. Let’s record reactions to a subject near and dear[…]
In the first chapter of the Soderberghicon story, we told you how our auspicious icon came into being. The thing we failed to emphasize in that brief narrative was the fact that we are big Soderbergh fans. Not only did we create the Soderberghicon because we think Scott looks like Steven Soderbergh, we created it[…]
Earl: They got any more? Lester: Any more what? Earl: Any more work. Lester: Yup. Earl: . . . Lester: . . . Earl: Where? Lester: Right over there in their recent work. Credits: Agency: Red Deluxe Animation: Storyville Post Art Director/Illustrator: Kim Gurley Writer: Justin Dobbs
OK. Yes. I know. The photo is blurry. BUT that’s an action shot, ladies and gentlemen. Banjo action! Check it out: Listen to “Utah Quitnet – Sushi” This new spot we recorded for Love Communications and utahquitnet.com features a mashup we created of some good ole’ banjo music and a Taiko drum track. We booked[…]
And now, a moment to salute friends of Lucky Dog, the Boondogs. This footage is from their appearance last year on AETN Presents, visually tweaked by Boondog percussionist Dylan Field. Not only do we love the songwriting team of Grotto and Weinheimer, but our partnership with Weinheimer’s Sellout Music lets us do great custom music[…]

This week we’ve been tackling a duplication job for the Localist. We’re turning out a limited edition run of 300 cds for this weekend’s Localist Dance Party (see below). The cd’s look terrific, thanks to the design work of Paul Delostritto. We are printing the above cover art on the face of the cds themselves[…]
I’ve been reading the Omnivore’s Dilemna recently which is giving me all sorts of fits about what I should and shouldn’t be eating. I think Scott is getting especially tired of all the “corn” talk I’ve been dishing out lately but what can I say? I’ve got high fructose corn syrup on the brain (and[…]
What happens when you pair a dog lovin’ production house (us) with a dog lovin’ creative house (Dave, Inc.)? Radio ad magic, of course. Especially when the client is the manufacturer of the coolest pet gadget of all time. Check out KoogaTag, a pet tag that stores your pet’s vet’s info in a waterproof usb[…]
Undoubtedly this is the funniest on hold message we’ve ever been lucky enough to produce. Our friends at Third Degree Advertising wrote this script and we consider it to be audio goodness of the highest caliber. Highlights include: “Webinars,” “clip on ties,” and an amazingly un-francophonic definition of “double-entendre.” Listen to “Putting the ‘Fun’ In[…]
Great concept, great script — what’s not to love about this spot we produced last week for BLAM! Listen to “Thesaurus“
Word is getting out about EZ Mabel’s road to the E.A.R. awards. Here’s the Arkansas Times awesome take on our big news!
Listen to “CommercialAppeal” Even though last week was Elvis Week, we’ve had Elvis on the mind since back in July when we first started considering how to cast this script from our friends at Red Deluxe. Many many phone calls later we found our magic four Elvis “impressionators.” My fav is Elvis #3 who coined[…]
Here’s some more recent work, this time another collaborative custom music project with Sellout Music. For this :30 TV spot, the client was looking for something minimal and “hip.” In particular, they wanted an electronic arrangement based around an acoustic instrument. Sellout came up with the meat and bones of this piece, a plaintive, delayed[…]
Casting is a challenging but important part of what we do here at Lucky Dog Audio. Consider these two recent requests for another round of Yahoo HotJobs radio spots: The Reporter: “First, we need a woman that sounds like the mom from Slingblade.” Being as accommodating as we could, we got Natalie Canerday to come[…]
Just in time for Cinco de Mayo, here’s some Recent Work that focuses on a rather serious issue. Scoliodentosaurophobia is the fear of lizards. According to a study conducted by the Bombay Hospital Journal, the lizard is the most commonly feared animal by adults, affecting 74% of those polled. Though common reactions include fits of[…]
