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[…]

Listen to “GRZGEN0619” So we’ve been doing spots for the Memphis Grizzlies and had an opportunity to go see how the big boys play NBA basketball. Unfortunately, on the night we went, they lost.

Scott says, “Charles is a lucky dog, but he has a melancholy side. Some days he just gets fixated on some moment in the past, working it like an old chew toy. We usually get him some green tea and it subsides, but sometimes it’s not out of his system until it’s properly documented, recorded,[…]
So the ceremony for Oklahoma City ADDY awards opened this year with this amazing video put together by Third Degree Communications, Digital DK, Simon Hurst Photography, and us. We love the way this piece works. The flickering text and the geek/chic office photographs, the retro/industrial footage, the lighting and exposure effects. . . it’s all[…]
So here’s a batch of radio spots we had a lot of fun producing. Once again, the old maxim “great radio starts with great writing” applies here. With that in mind, the voice talent did some exceptional work breathing life into these characters. Our Pilot nailed that cool, underplayed, this-is-your-pilot-speaking voice. Our Lawyer knocked it[…]
Since we spend so much time on YouTube, we thought it was time to join the fun. Check it out: These are two PSAs we produced last month for the Baton Rouge Area Foundation. After obtaining permission to re-record “Come Rain or Come Shine,” we cut two versions of the song with two different bands[…]
