Click and Listen to: Inside the Producers Studio – Dave Sawchuk
I don’t know if this will be a regular feature or not, but the above audio snip is from some “tape” that I had for a commercial I made for Soprano’s. Everyday before my radio show, I come a few hours early, and sometimes our producer Sheldon gives me a couple commercials to make. Helps me keep my skills up in case I need to fill in for Sheldon. I’m not very good so I generally get basic spots to craft… and usually Sheldon has already recorded the announcer. When I get the audio to make the spot, it is never edited or a simple read of the copy. There is always some sort of story or banter that Sheldon has with the “talent.” I always chop it out to make the commercial obviously, but sometimes the little stories are interesting and the people telling them forget they’re being recorded. Since the announcers are very comfortable and having a real one-on-one conversation with Sheldon, the style is different than you might find on a radio show and I personally find them interesting.
As I find stuff worth sharing, I’ll post it here as “Inside the Producers Studio.”
oh and that band… Norglen? Here they are.
