This film follows a woman dancing as she moves through different phases and milestones of her life while listening to a wide variety of songs and interviews that each have a unique place on SiriusXM, emphasizing the breadth and depth of audio experiences available on the audio entertainment service. By showcasing a life in sound, this piece reflects how SiriusXM brings listeners closer to what they love and what moves them throughout their lives.
Titled “A Life in Sound,” the film was directed by Kim Gehrig of production house Somesuch for agency Uncommon Creative Studio.
“‘A Life in Sound’ celebrates the real, universal, and uniquely human experience of being moved by the audio you love. One film. One woman. Dancing through the different chapters of her life. It is the truth of the SiriusXM experience captured in film,” said Nils Leonard, co-founder of Uncommon Creative Studio. “And as a creative studio, we were honored to have the opportunity to capture and share that magic.”
A pared down version of the film ran during this past Sunday’s Academy Awards telecast.
