In addition, Green is very active in the experiential world, sound designing exhibits around the world, notably at the Museum of Tolerance in Moscow, The Presideo of San Francisco, the
Olympic Gardens in London, The Library of Congress in Washington D.C. and the New York Historical Society.
The new duotone venture has had a busy opening summer, mixing the Tylenol “How We Family” spots for JWT, Stella Artois’ “Host Beautifully” for Mother, Krylon’s “Yard Sale” for Deutsch, Nike’s “Disrupt” for W&K and Oreo’s “Thins” for The Martin Agency.
David Leinheardt, managing director of duotone, said of the company’s expansion, “We’ve long wanted to provide audio post services to our clients, but we needed the right team who we felt would truly bring the goods. We’ve found that team in Andy and Greg.”
The new studios offer surround and stereo mixing, sound design, casting, record and remote recording.
