The 2011 International Radio And Production Awards - Best of the Rest Part 1!

RAP-CD-logo-2Welcome to the April 2011 RAP CD as we present the 2011 RAP Awards Best of the Rest Part 1. We begin with Feature Productions on tracks 1 through 7, Small Market Commercials are on tracks 8 through 18. Medium Market Commercials are on tracks 19 through 29, and Large Market Commercials on tracks 30 through 34. These cuts represent entries that came very close to making it to the finals, some missing it by a fraction – yes, some missing by one vote. All deserve acknowledgment for work well done! (Note: The name listed next to the entry title is the name of the individual submitting the entry. In most cases, this person is the entry's producer, copywriter, or voice talent – or any combination thereof -- but not always. Feel free to contact the individual at the supplied email address for added information about their entry.) We wrap it up with audio from Dave Foxx for this month's Production 212 column.
