LOS ANGELES, USA // Prior to joining Barking Owl, Carol Dunn served as West Coast Executive Producer at a leading music house where she spearheaded creative partnerships and oversaw audio production for commercials, film and TV, managing a team of 15 composers and producing projects for brands such as Squarespace, Nike, Doritos, Samsung, and Uber. Dunn’s extensive music career spans over 30 years, with her very first role being a switchboard operator at Capitol Records where she later became Head of Film & TV. Dunn’s passion for music and film, coupled with her inquisitive nature, helped her transition to producing notable soundtracks under the mentorship of renowned music supervisor Karyn Rachtman, contributing to films such as Boogie Nights, Stealing Beauty, Baz Lurhmann’s Romeo + Juliet, Bulworth, Rugrats I & II, and Office Space.

With the evolution of music delivery from physical media to digital streams and downloads, Carol moved into music publishing, honing her synch skills, before transitioning to the advertising side of the industry. Her journey in music houses started at Amber Music in 2006 and continued through a number of leading music houses before landing at Barking Owl in July 2024.

Dunn envisions music as another character in the film, thus driving her passion for storytelling in audio post-production for commercials. Beyond her production work, Dunn is dedicated to promoting diversity and inclusion within the advertising industry.
