Awesome Imaging + Fantastic Voiceover!

A passable voiceover with average production isn’t the goal for most radio stations when it comes to their branding and imaging. Nor, of course, should it be!  But awesome imaging coupled with Fantastic Voiceover? Now you’re talking.  That’s what brings the station sound together!  And that’s why we’re proud to work with, and feature in our production, a wide array of wildly talented imaging voices…including stars like Neil Wilson and his Fantastic Voiceover! Or to be more precise, “FANTasTic VOICEoveR…!!!”

How to describe Neil?  Let’s try this: “From flat-out exuberance to forthright honesty, Neil is the guy next to you at the game to the guy next door- your buddy and your bro, there when you need him. A direct and no-nonsense engagement style, making your station sound both friendly and highly functional. If you love ad-libs, then Neil is your guy.”  You can hear him on cool stations like WMMM, KALC, KKGO, WMC, WSTR, WDAF, KBEA, WKYL, WOWY, and many more.  You can hear his demos here.  And if you want to know more about working with Neil, you can always send a message here.

The Art of Eavesdropping on Electricity

When it comes to radio imaging and production FX, the right sound can flip the ordinary into unforgettable. Enter Robert Dudzic, legendary sound designer, creative sonic scientist, and master of audio elevation. In this session, he cracks open the TASCAM FR-AV4 and ATOME, showing how invisible sounds can become powerful weapons in your production arsenal.

In what’s new:

TASCAM FR-AV4 + ATOME | Sound Design with Electromagnetic Field

Sound Design: Creative Cinematic FX for Film, TV & Video Games

I’m excited to share my brand-new video where I explore two powerful tools for sound design: the TASCAM FR-AV4 field recorder and the ATOME electromagnetic field sensor + contact microphone.

What’s in the Video

In this video, you’ll see me in action recording inside a machine shop, using these devices to capture unique textures, from electromagnetic field tones to the raw resonance of industrial machines. I’ll walk you through how these tools work and show how they can open up new creative possibilities for cinematic sound design. (more…)
