This past weekend Jingle Punks welcomed students from New York University into their office for “48 Hours of Jingle Punks – Master Class“. The students were immersed into the Jingle Punks culture and learned about the companies processes from receiving music from artists, to creating custom compositions, and then to licensing. The students had an excellent time while learning more about the business of music licensing and custom composition. We’re looking forward to the next “48 hours” but until then, check out the gallery below.

With the NFL lockout officially over for only minutes, ESPN, as is their custom as the “Worldwide Leader in Sports,” was all over it with the release of their latest viral ad “The Evolution of the Touchdown Dance”. The ad is a part of ESPN’s ongoing “It’s not crazy, it’s sports” campaign and features viral video star, Judson Laipply (The Evolution of Dance 1 & 2), performing 23 end zone celebrations to a Jingle Punks produced soundbed. It was commissioned by the ad agency Weiden + Kennedy and launched on ESPN’s social sites and YouTube channel just minutes after the news broke that the lockout was over. Check it out below.
