HA Looking back 2024

Issued by Howard Audio

17 Jan 2025

Happy New Year from all of us at Howard Audio!

As we step into 2025, we’re taking a moment to reflect on an incredible 2024 filled with groundbreaking projects, multiple awards and unforgettable collaborations that have truly defined our commitment to sound and music excellence. Howard Audio is here and ready to take your next project to the next level - and win some awards along the way! :)

Last year was packed with achievements:

We tackled serious issues with Amnesty International’s #ScanTheScar campaign, raising awareness about teen pregnancy in South Africa.

Our involvement in the Solid Gold Story Time podcast, which won Podcast of the Year, helped promote literacy among children through immersive soundscapes.

The Toyota Hilux ad showcased our expertise in blending music and sound design, earning a Creative Circle SA #bestofthemonth award.

The Afrikaraoke project allowed us to preserve African heritage by recording culturally significant songs.

Our work on the KFC ‘40th Cake’ ad led to a Craft Award for our head of sound, Paul Theodorou.

At the SAFTAs, our innovative approach was recognised, underscoring our leadership in sound design for film and television.

HA Looking back 2024

Swingin’ Las Vegas brought the house down at The Teatro, proving once again the allure of live big band performances.

Our creative excellence shone brightly at the Loeries, where we picked up multiple awards across various categories.

A Swingin’ Christmas with the @johannesburg_big_band was a festive highlight, demonstrating the growing capabilities of Howard Events in creating unforgettable live experiences.

...and so many more incredible moments we couldn’t fit into just one post!
We’re grateful for your support and thrilled about the new adventures 2025 holds. Here’s to more innovative sound and music projects! Stay tuned!

At Howard Audio we do sound differently. Our composers and engineers combine original music, sound design and final mix in a state of the art studio to create emotionally captivating audio.
