Oink Ink Radio Announces Eighth Annual Dead Radio Contest

Oink Ink Radio, a bicoastal agency specializing in the creation and production of award winning radio commercials, announced today the call for entries in its Eighth Annual Dead Radio Contest. Frustrated copywriters across America are invited to submit their best radio scripts that suffered heart-wrenching deaths at the whim of their client's egos. The winning script will be produced – or resuscitated – by Oink Ink, free of charge, who will also fly the winners to New York or Santa Monica to attend the recording.

Seems the contest has paid off. Two past contest spots went on to achieve Mercury Finalist status as well as winners of National Addys and one Gold Winner at the London International Advertising Awards. Last year’s Dead Radio winner was Greg Christiansen, hailing from Young & Rubicam/Chicago. His spot entitled "Testing" was designed for the Miller Brewing Company promoting their new Fridge Pack.

All contestants submitting scripts will receive a copy of the winning entry. The deadline for entries is May 15, 2005. Enter here. Oink Ink’s East Coast office is located at 38 Greene Street in Manhattan’s SoHo district. Its West Coast office is located at 1119 Colorado Avenue in Santa Monica, CA.
