The Dog Actor’s Studio.
I’m getting ready to make my 4th movie, “The Adventures of Spencer: Part 4”. So I’ve been practicing my acting. This is my serious drama face. “Are you talkin’ to me? Are You talkin’ to me?” (Said like Robert Di Niro.) This is the same line said in Air Bud style. “Mpffh Youpfphf Maplpffin’ To …
Late Night Session.
Last night I worked late. We were working on a science fiction movie…they have lots of sound design in them so it’s a lot of work. I mostly sleep through the work parts but I wake up when we watched it down to make sure it sounded great. I really got into the movie… Wow, …
A Beachy Day.
Today I went on a big adventure to the beach! There is a nice stretch of beach right in between Santa Monica Beach and Venice Beach that is very nice to hang out on. There is lots of sand. At the edge of the sand there is a bike and walking path that goes …
A Nice Surprise.
I had a nice surprise this week when my friend, Frog the Dog, sent me a certificate! Isn’t it nice? I was helping him look for his toy, Spiky, who got lost in the ocean. I combed the beaches in Los Angeles, keeping an eye out for Spiky but Spiky was found not too far …
Spencer Report.
This month the humans & I worked a lot…well, they worked and I sat nearby for pets and stress relief. We still made time for our walks and even managed to see some friends. I was very happy despite the hectic schedule and very long hours. Our wonderful friends gave us a beautiful fruit basket …
TGIF!
It has been very busy at the studio this month. We have been working late everyday. By 10pm I am usually conked out on my fuzzy blanket… Every now and then I sneak a peak to see what’s going on or if I hear an interesting sound… So tonight I was happy to get out …
I’m Back!
Hello everyone! I’m finally back from my working vacation. It was a very busy week here at the studio. The humans were working on many different projects. That means I had a lot to do too…greeting clients and making sure everyone stayed happy during sessions. I got lots of pets this week! I have a …
A Little Blog Break.
Hi everyone! I am taking a little break from the blog this week because work at the studio is very busy right now. We are working on a lot of movies and television shows. One of them even has a dog in it, just not me! As sad as I am to have to take …
Beach Bum.
Yesterday we went to the beach. Los Angeles has many beaches but dogs are only allowed on a handful, so we went to Leo Carrillo State Beach which is part of a big park of the same name. You can camp and hike in the park and the beach has tide pools and a giant …
Work.
I am a dog with a job! I am the official studio mascot for Grind Music & Sound. We make sounds for film and television…well, I don’t make sounds unless they need dog sounds (or growly monster sounds), but you know what I mean. My duties are to greet clients when they come to the …
I’ve Been Tagged!
Our friends Bala, Sankara, Amy, Nikko & Pepper from “One dog and Two Birds” tagged me today to write a list of 8 unusual or funny things about myself and then tag somebody else. So here it goes: 1- I was rescued from the Golden Retriever Club of Greater Los Angeles Rescue. 2- My …
Dining Adventures.
I love dining out. Actually, I usually don’t eat when we go out but I, like to go anyway. We go to restaurants with patios and I love to lie near the table and watch all the action. I even get my own water and sometimes a special cookie too. This weekend we went to …
Red Dog Diary: A Dogumentary – the Trailer.
Today my humans posted the trailer for Red Dog Diary: A Dogumentary. They have been working very hard on the documentary and are very happy to have the trailer done. This is the story of Raja the golden retriever who passed away from osteosarcoma (bone cancer) last year. You can read about his story here.
Allnighter.
Last night was a late night. My humans ended up working all night so I tried to stay up and keep them company. This from a dog that is conked out by 10pm. There needs to be an espresso machine for dogs (note to self: invent dog espresso machine, stay up late nights and surprise …
Hollyweird.
I went to my audition yesterday. It was really a zoo…full of dogs…dogs barking, running all over, stealing my tennis balls, dressed in silly costumes and about a million Jack Russell Terriers. To say it was chaos would be an understatement. I just sat under a tree and watched all the pandemonium until it was …
Busy Dog.
I am one busy dog. Oh yeah, I really am. This past week was very busy at the studio with lots of clients coming and going. I have to greet each one and give them the pet test. They get bonus points if they pet me. I just sit beside them and telepathically say “Pet …
Noise Pollution.
Everyone knows dogs have extremely good hearing, right? So if some noise is annoying you, imagine what I feel like. Which brings me to 2 things that need to be controlled. 1 – leaf blowers OK I know they seem to make things look cleaner but we all know as soon as the dust they …
The New Digs Are Done.
We’ve spent the last 2 months building out the new studio for Grind and it’s finally done! I didn’t mind all the hammering and sawing but I’m glad things are cleaned up and somewhat back to normal. The main room is a pretty cool space for me to hang out in. I like the giant …
