Ep 115: Music & Film Composition with Emmy Award Winners Pop Sound Inc!

vendredi 30 avril 2021Durée 43:12

Urban Dictionary defines 'pop' as "the derivative of crackle, which is the derivative of snap, which is the derivative of jerk, which is the derivative of acceleration, which is the derivative of velocity, which is the derivative of distance...." Which we feel is the derivative of awesome.

It's through this idea that Pop Sound has been able to contribute to so many award winning projects. As a close-knit team, we're able to collaborate and refine our music, sound design, and mixes to allow each important element and moment to shine.

Pop Sound Inc. (formerly Eggplant LF Inc.) is an internationally acclaimed music composition and production company located in Toronto, Canada with a portfolio that includes music and sound for Film, TV, News and Factual productions from around the globe. With world class composers, music and SFX editors, and recording/mixing engineers, Pop Sound offers a 360 degree music experience from brief to final delivery. With over 20 years of experience we have provided award winning music and sound to all mediums...

except psychic - too spooky!


From large sweeping orchestral arrangements down to the faintest most seemingly inaudible footstep, our team understands that care and thoughtfulness is important at every stage of production. This is also known as being tasteful!

Audio quality, format, deadlines, and deliverables are all second nature to us. With these technical specs resoundingly taken care of Pop Sound is able to focus on the ever so crucial sonic direction of the project; in the nuance of the voices, the textures of the sounds, the arrangement of the score, and the flavour of chip when we settle in to enjoy the final product.

Let us help make your project POP!

Ep 112: Actress Reagan Pasternak, discusses her new book Griffin's Heart

lundi 19 avril 2021Durée 39:58

Reagan Pasternak is a Canadian born actress from Toronto, Canada. She's the youngest of four siblings, with two sisters and one brother. She began singing at age seven and soon after fell in love with theater, training in The Meisner Technique, among others. She also performed in award-winning improv groups and musical theater productions and was awarded a full scholarship to college for performing arts. Almost immediately out of college she booked the lead in a Disney TV series directed by Shawn Levy called In A Heartbeat, starring alongside Shawn Ashmore.

Since then she has starred in numerous TV shows and films including MTV's Jailbait, Hallmark's A Christmas Visitor, Welcome To Mooseport, CSI Las Vegas, Girl Meets World, Master's Of Sex, and was a lead in the critically acclaimed dramedy series Being Erica, produced by Temple Street Productions. Reagan has been nominated for multiple Gemini Awards and has won numerous awards and scholarships for her music.

Reagan's is fascinated by true crime, specifically wrongful convictions. Recently she was a guest panelist on the hit true crime podcast Undisclosed in their second season. She is a huge supporter of The Innocence Project as well as The Adnan Syed Trust Fund.

An avid animal lover, Reagan enjoys working with LA-based animal rescue groups such as Hope for Paws (check out their videos) and supports various animal causes such as The Animal Hope And Wellness Foundation, PETA, The Animal Rescue Site, and The Humane Society of the United States.

Griffin’s Heart is more than a book — It’s an interactive healing tool for pet owners in grief that is equal parts memoir, journal, and keepsake. An unwavering companion during the worst time, Griffin’s Heart helps readers find meaning in their loss and creates a safe space to honor the life that was lost.

“Our pets give us so much unconditional love that when we lose them it can feel like our world stops. Griffin’s Heart provides a space to honor the loss of our amazing friends and have their memory forever live on if only through our hearts and these pages.”
~ Jaycee Dugard (NYT Bestselling Author, Founder, The JAYC Foundation)

Ep 110: 19 year old writer sells her first feature film screenplay! Jordan-Paige Sudduth

lundi 12 avril 2021Durée 48:43

Jordan-Paige Sudduth is a 19 year old writer, actor, director, filmmaker, daily vlogger, and author. Born on April 13, 2001, she was born and raised in Georgia, left the state for a bit of time to attend college, and is now back in the great peach state.

She began gaining her interest in acting first at around age 8 after performing a small skit for an elementary school project. The next year, she joined her school’s drama club, and fell in love with the art when they performed a rendition of Cinderella, in which she played the Stepmother’s voice, a narrator, and part of the procession. The next year, in 5th grade, she played Centipede in the full length production of James and The Giant Peach, once again, at her elementary school.

In her first year of middle school, her grade level was not allowed to participate in the drama club, and from there, she began to develop her love of acting for film and television, and began to take classes at AllStars Performing Arts Academy, and performed, once again, in James and The Giant Peach, but this time out of school at the Dancing Goat Theatre. As she hit her 7th grade year, she left AllStars, and began taking acting for film and television classes at Creative Studios of Atlanta. At her middle school, she performed in theatre shows as Maria and a part of the ensemble in My Son Pinocchio Jr., and as Chaos in The Dream Thief later that year. Hitting her last year in middle school, Jordan was cast as the role of Dragon in Shrek Jr., and that’s where her love for singing seemed to kick in. Since then, she has begun taking voice lessons with Melissa Loggins at Music Authority, and doesn’t plan to stop any time soon.

As she made her way into high school, her passion for film and television acting had been shadowed by theatre, and she joined Troupe 5362, a now award winning high school theatre troupe. It was during her freshman year that she found she was longing for something more, and therefore, her first screenplay, CRACKED was written over the course of the school year. As January hit, she began casting the feature length film, and that summer (2016), the film was shot over a course of 23 days. It was released as a private screening in August, and has now ben released to YouTube. The film runs at an hour and 17 minutes, and it was her writing, and directorial debut, and has won an award for Best Student Film, and has been recognized at three festivals. From that film, she has also be nominated for Best Actress at the Widescreen Film & Music Video Festival.

Jordan continued to make films all throughout high school, and went to college in Vancouver, British Columbia to study Writing for Film, Television, and Games at Vancouver Film School in August of 2019. She has completed 20 film projects over all, and while she now focuses mostly on writing, she does plan on continuing to make films from time to time. In January of 2021, she started her own virtual YouTube talk show, Breaking Character, to showcase all different types of creatives in the industry.

Currently working on: Writing television pilots and features to be pitched.
