Radio Spots

These are some of the Radio Spots I have written and got executed in the last 3-4 years. Unfortunately I don’t have my old data, which means out of my 16 years in advertising, I just have last few years of work with me. Writing Radio Scripts gives me a high, because it’s a narrative and conversational, unlike writing for ads where it’s static. Narratives also bring out regional or native lingo, expressions and phrases, which is fun to work on, as it is insightful of how people speak, react or express.
