Ringtones: Behind the Music

i have a motorolla slvr L7 i have yet to buy a ringtone for it.....or a wallpaper for that matter, but back to the ringtones....i make my own using audio editing software, i just import an mp3 file and just start chopping away till i have a tone thats about 15 to 20sec. long

Rights suck.

Interesting, informative, and entertaining. Refreshing. Jason, any relation to Jolene?

Interesting topic... GL

Check out our newest

I LOVE my ringtones!

Congrats!

fun!

great topic. very well put together. oh, those crazy humans. what will they think of next?

nice video!!! ready for tv.

Just to let everyone know, I have a really old Nokia and I found my ringtone on the internet as a series of keystrokes I had to program myself. The tune you might ask???

"PUSH IT" by Salt N' Peppa

Again I really love this pod. Well done. You "pushed it real good"

we humans-are nutty...*GL!*

I really like the topic. This is by far one the the very best pieces on current.

I HATE THOSE ANNOYING RINGTONES-except for mine-it's the saved by the bell song. Great job, shoulda made TV already.

Great job, Very interesting topic. I have many ringtones my self.

Ringtones are for babies.

intresting piece. the "Ringtone masters" said they could not be replaced because they make a ringtone that sounds like an old telephone, just make an mp3 of the real sounding phone! ha "Ringtone masters" you have officialy been replaced! you get a "GL"

WELL DONE. Really interesting subject done with a simple, but stylistic approach. You get my green.

Well done piece! I love his "Steven Wright-esqe" voice. (Will anyone on this site know who he is?) As a 33 year old I'm just sitting on the sidelines watching all the younguns go crazy about their ringtones and MP3s.

I have "Crazy Chicken" on my phone :)
Make it shorter though. And the voice over would serve the pod better if I was faster/more dynamic. Make it like 2 mintes max.

Well covered - the story is told with true professionalism. The subject is culturally relevant and current. It's a topic that garners interest from the millions of ring-toners. Great choice, well done.

Take the time to make sure your sound is right on location - those technical considerations are what separate the pros from the cons.

I gotta get me a phat ringtone.

Greenlight.

BS

This was very interesting ! :)

Hey, is this an ad or what is Current coming to???? Peter Rabbit

this is a really interesting piece and well put together
greenlight!

I like the part with the explosions! BOOM!!! Hahahahaha

me likes

love your "I'd rather be napping but since i'm awake...I found this cool story" tracking style

I love the ringtone master! And that funky old rotary phone is the bomb. Where did you find it? Awesome piece. Totally sweet.

Fascinating work! I particularly like the nonplussed assessment from the Japanese ringtone master. One thing: the ringing sound over the first shot of the vintage telephone is obviously NOT an analog metal clapper hitting a metal bell--it would be nice to hear the comparison between the simulation and the real thing.

Nice Work. Tight, funny, great.

You got the steez for this documentarian business, sir! Neatly packaged, informative, hitting the major players, a little human interest...it's tight. Better than Oakland Raider Parking Lot, your finest work? Hard to say!

Yeah Jiggy... A sweet little pod on Current... An inside look on an industry I never even knew existed. Next up you'll get yourself an Emmy...

I didn't know the Bay Area and ringtones had ANYTHING In common! I feel more informed! Way to go J!!!
