What—an in-person event? Feels unreal, but we’re more than ready to start reconnecting with this community face to face. Assistant Engineer Tristan Schmunk and Senior Creative Producer Jason will be there (both of whom joined our team during the pandemic, so come meet Dig1’s newest faces).

The OMPA directory is an invaluable asset to our community. We frequently send folks to the directory to find talented Oregon resources. All great reasons to come together and celebrate.

[Sound On] It’s been one year (😱 😱 😱 ) since we released “The Mt. Freelance Podcast” with our friends @andrewcarydickson & @mathdept @mtfreelance. Our own @tschmunk.wav wrote and performed the theme song, as well as all the music throughout the show, and we know you’ll be humming it til next week.

If you find yourself freelancing or freelancing-adjacent, this podcast is for you. Or if you love interviews with creators who’ve worked on #Portlandia and @Shrillhulu, or with icons like @patrickmahomes and @tarajiphenson, then, yeah—there’s a lot of that too.

And if you find yourself in need of your own original music or some help with any stage of podcast production… you know where to find us.

Throwback to the time our producer Kelsey got a tattoo during our annual planning meeting. It’s not all fun and tattoos at company meetings, it’s really all about our community and how to serve you better. If you have thoughts, we’d love to hear them or if you want to hear “how the hell did a company meeting turn into Kelsey getting a tattoo?” feel free to hit us up. Speaking of, Kelsey is away from her desk for planning today, so pardon the delay in communication.

Posted @withregram • @eewithacee I first met William Hurt in 2004 when he came to @digonepdx for ADR on the film “The Village”. He told me the amazing story of flying his Cessna over Malheur Co to spread his father’s ashes, only to be so amazed by the state’s beauty that he proclaimed “I need to make this my place”. Lucky for us. Over the last 17 years, he became the lost friend who would show up unexpectedly for dinner.

I have an unspoken rule to not take photos of the famous people who come through our doors, but for some reason we asked for this photo back in ‘04. Two years ago, during the height of the pandemic, I printed this photo and gave it to him. To my surprise, he was absolutely touched and asked if he could give it to his son (maybe because it showed William being playful). Then he thanked me for having the courage to take the picture all those years ago. In 2020, I felt anything but courageous.

We knew Bill was sick (he didn’t like that I called him Bill as it was too pedestrian, but he said I had permission regardless) and it’s been hard to see his visits dwindle. We shall miss his intense diatribes at lesser directors, his never ending stories, his lack of parking skills, his passion for the craft, and (as @tschmunk.wav recalled) his pandemic elbow bumps (which often turned into a do-si-do). Mr Hurt, we are glad you made this your place. RIP

Hey friends, Digital One is happy to finally announce the release of 1-800-HOT-NITE @1800hotnitefilm . Don’t let the title fool you…it’s a great coming of age story based on some of the personal life experiences of the director Nick Richey @nickrichey8 . Our crack team consisted of sound effects editor Jeff Fuller @astro.jeff , dialog editor Corey Crawford @inthenighttime , foley walker Tristan Schmunk @tschmunk.wav and Eric Stolberg @eewithacee as sound supervisor and re-recording mixer. While Dig1’s facilities were the hub of audio operations, our pandemic proven systems allowed us to simultaneously work in multiple cities, culminating in final mixes at the Movie Madness Miniplex @moviemadness_pdx. The film is currently screening at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival, so go check it out!

“Change Is Good!” This has been one of our mottos for this year (along with “be kind” and “take care of your neighbor”), and we are excited to see change right here on our block. I mean, how can you NOT love a better Naito forever! Looking forward to hosting a party for you all once the remodel is complete.

In case you missed it, we’ve created a podcast for freelancers...or anyone in business looking to be creative, successful and have a life.

Reason #37 why we created a podcast about freelancing.

Always entertaining to get promos for projects we had a hand in! While the world was in lock down last year, we quietly continued working on fun shows like @paradisepd with the hilarious @kylekinane and our friends at @BentoBoxEnt. Check out the latest episodes on @Netflix now!

Dig1 is one year older! They say it’s all about the journey, but we say it’s all about the people. Yes, it’s painful to be distanced from you, but it means we’ll be that much more stoked and ready to celebrate the big 3-0 next year! Thanks for all the well wishes! #happybirthday #groundhogday #loveyourjob

We close from Dec 23 to Jan 4 in order to be with family and recharge our batteries, but we also let the equipment elves sneak in and hot rod our toys. Curious what they did this year?

Mercury, AICP and Rosey awards pale in comparison to our latest distinction: SAG/AFTRA approved recording studio. Amazing or not, this does allow us to host talent as incomparably hilarious as the masked Aidy Bryant @aidybryant. Yo Aidy, thank you for helping us keep a smile on our face, even in the midst of this sh--show pandemic!

This season, we are donating 5% of December profits to a local non-profit near and dear to us. By booking your projects during December, you are partnering with us to help provide housing to Portland’s most vulnerable residents.
Transition Projects, Inc. is dedicated to helping transition the homeless into permanent housing throughout the metro area. Visit tprojects.org for more ways to help, or go to the Willamette Week’s Give!Guide to donate to their cause.

Madison, the newest of the Digital One crew, made the Transition Projects, Inc. Veteran Stand Down post! Way to go, Mad Dawg and the whole Dig1 crew. Thank you for volunteering your time to help veterans experiencing homelessness get the resources they need, and treating them with kindness every step of the way. Thank you, Transition Projects, for including us in this great event. To say we dig it would be the understatement of the year.

Hey guys - next Wednesday 9/11/19, the Digital One crew will be volunteering for a cause that’s near and dear to us — 2019 Veterans Stand Down with Transition Projects, Inc. Please consider donating a move-in kit for a veteran (or non-veteran) transitioning out of homelessness. The kits are easy to put together, accepted year-round, and they give a huge boost to anyone moving off of the streets and into permanent housing. Find out how you can put together a move-in kit at https://bit.ly/2lCxetG
