We've had an incredible year at Boom Box Post and want to say a giant thank you to all of our clients, friends, and blog readers! Day after day, we find ourselves feeling thankful for the opportunity to add our zany sounds to such amazing content. We wish you all peace, love, and joy in the new year!
This was Boom Box Post's first time attending Comic-Con International: San Diego, and it was spectacular! Jeff and I reveled in the cosplay (and crossplay) photo ops, met amazing visual artists on the floor, attended panels for Disney's Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero and Star vs the Forces of Evil and Nickelodeon's TMNT, saw Nickelodeon's The Loud House screened for an audience of insanely enthusiastic children, and schmoozed with all of our favorite clients and friends from the past ten years. It was an incredibly overwhelming, fantastically fast-paced, whirlwind of a weekend. Check out some photo highlights below, and don't forget to read the captions to get the full experience. We'll see you all again next year!
Last September, I stumbled upon an IndieGoGo page asking for donations to “Send WAM to the 137th AES Convention!” Their plea for funds was told by an endearing indie music video with lyrics like:
Help send WAM to the the AES Convention,
Where we’ll see the latest audio inventions.
The largest expo of audio professionals,
WAM’s booth will make AES more accessible.
WAM stands for Women's Audio Mission, and it is “a San Francisco-based non-profit organization dedicated to the advancement of women in music production and the recording arts.” Their page explains that “in a field where women are critically under-represented (less than 5%), WAM seeks to ‘change the face of sound’ by providing hands-on training, experience, career counseling and job placement to women and girls in media technology for music, radio, film, television and the internet. WAM believes that women's mastery of music technology and inclusion in the production process will expand the vision and voice of media and popular culture.”
Now, this was something that I could get behind.
In our first year of business, we were so excited to announce that the sound team behind Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles earned a Golden Reel nomination for Best Sound Editing in TV Animation. It was an honor to have been recognized by the Motion Picture Sound Editors guild among many other talented sound teams.
