That’s A Wrap – Week 14 – Season 2

Live streaming, Headshots, Making Music, and Prom-Planning – That’s a Productive Week!

Del-One had us down in Dover to do a site visit for their upcoming Annual Meeting for Delaware’s largest credit union in preparation for the live stream and meeting production.

Delaware Today brought its latest group of Excellence in Nursing winners through the studio this week to get headshots done for the event program and record video content to be shown at the event and online, sharing what inspires them and keeps them going. We might have also grabbed some funny stories too.

Nemours called us in to help bring their Enchanted Forest-themed Prom event to life. We met on-site to discuss ideas and start on planning to make this a night their patients will never forget.

To close things out, the dynamic duo, 2Flaw$y, made up of Da Real Majik and Lady Polo came all the way in from Rochester, NY, to chop it up with Herb Middleton in the Recording Studio.

Thanks for another Inspiring, Creative, and Productive week!

Stay Awesome and Stay Tuned!

More Music Production with Herb Middleton and a theme Track for Official Celebrity Boxing

Connecting is always a good way to start our week and our community engagement initiative — Delaware Business First hit that note in style. What a great turnout as usual with familiar and new faces all coming together lifting each other up.

San Diego native Joe Leavy was in the studio this week with our guy Herb Middleton to work on a track for his album, Soul On Fire. Our team captured some BTS footage and imagery to be used for the cover art for the album. Stay tuned to see the final results!

No one is safe when NDO is around. NDO Champ brought his energy to the studio to “Blend it Up” creating an original track our team wrote and is producing. The track is even going to be used as his walk-up music for his HUGE Meta-verse match through Official Celebrity Boxing on May 13th vs four-time World Champion, Roy Jones Jr.

Our girl, Lady Mouthphy, also stopped by to add her flavor to the song.

Thanks for another Inspiring, Creative, and Productive week!

The Official Celebrity Boxing Podcast was cranking in the studio, recording multiple episodes as we get closer and closer to LAUNCH.

We wrapped up production on a short promo for the DoMore24DE LIVESTREAM we are hosting and producing so look out for that.

Encore Azalea has called on us again to help create and deliver a commercial ad campaign around their Binge Worthy Blooms.

And UK artist Rich Beggar came across the pond to work in-studio with Herb Middleton on some new music to add to his already impressive catalog.

Baltimore native and Atlanta-based artist, Nani Goins, graced the recording studio, working with Herb Middleton and spending some time in front of the camera, to kick things off this week.

Always on point, Chris took on the Wilmington Ballet in support of the DoMore24DE campaign participating in their Master Class Series, led by the famed Voloshky Ukrainian Dance Ensemble.

The team dropped the new single PHILLY PHILLY PHILLY along with the music video in time to hype up for the Big Game, stirring up some press and creating a buzz around the track.

That’s A Wrap – Week 8

Week 8 Gave Us 2-22-22, and A Trip To Nashville

Floyd 5D

Floyd Armstrong of the 5th Dimension may be used to the sunny skies of Southern California, but he’s not afraid to venture north for a little collaboration. The 5th dimension is an alternate universe where it is always sunny and there is never any snow. Recently, he made the trip up from San Diego to work with Herb Middleton on some original music. While he was in town, he also caught a few snowflakes – something that’s definitely not available in San Diego! Luckily, he had a great time and was able to experience a whole new side of the country. Who knows, maybe he’ll even come back for more snowflakes next winter!

Young and Photogenic

The team traveled to Dover to photograph the Boys and Girls Clubs of Delaware’s Youth of the Year Campaign. They got additional content for their Student Advocate Initiative, which is a big deal. The Youth of the Year Campaign is an annual event that celebrates the achievements of young people who have overcome enormous odds. It’s a big deal because it helps to raise awareness about the importance of supporting young people in our communities. The team got some great photos and they’re excited to share them with the world!

History is Her Story

You could cut the excitement with a knife at True Access Capital’s Women’s Business Center Her Story Our History Event last week. The room was packed with inspiring women being honored, and the air was thick with anticipation for the upcoming Harriet Tubman – Inspired Celebration on March 9th. Theater N will be hosting the event, and we are thrilled to be producing it. It promises to be an evening of stunning entertainment, enlightening conversation and empowering networking. So mark your calendars and keep an eye out for more details – we can’t wait to see you there!

Momentum has grown for a Harriet Tubman-inspired celebration coming up on March 9th at Theatre N that we are honored to be producing, so look out for that.

As we buttoned things up we appreciate another CREATIVE, PRODUCTIVE and INSPIRING week.

Stay Awesome and we will see you next week!

Types of Music Videos Ranked

From Budget Friendly to Breaking the Bank

Making a music video can be totally fun and exciting and give you all of the VH1 “Behind the Music” vibes you dream of. However, not all music videos are made the same. There are many factors that play into the type of music video you create, from your vision and style to your budget. Here’s a simple guide to help you decide the type of music video production that is best for you, based on your budget and your dreams.

 

Budget Friendly – Lyric Videos

The most budget-friendly option in music video production is to produce a lyric video. Lyric videos may seem pretty self-explanatory by title – they’re videos where lyrics play across the screen in sync with the music. They can be incredibly innovative because the font and visuals can change the mood according to the song. A fast paced song may have bold, rapid text, while a slow ballad could include lyrical script floating across the screen. Lyric videos serve a simple purpose and can also be a placeholder until a final video is complete – or it can be your final video if you’re working with an extremely tight budget.

Mid-Range – Performance Music Videos

Performance music videos are the most like what you’re used to seeing when you think of a classic “music video” – and it is what you’d likely see on MTV and VH1 back when they used to actually play music videos instead of reality TV shows. Performance videos include shots of the musical artists performing their songs on camera. There is no limit to the amount of creativity that you can express in these types of videos. They can include live concert footage, in-studio footage, or lip-synced footage from just about anywhere in the world. If you’d like a performance music video, you can keep this option easy on the wallet by choosing to keep it low key and using a single set, and limiting the amount of time spent shooting.

Moving on Up – Narrative Music Videos

While performance videos can be excellent when done creatively, then can also get a little bit repetitive – after all, we’ve seen thousands of these over the years. If you want to stand out, sometimes you’ve got to mix it up. Enter the narrative music video. Narrative music videos take performance videos one step further, and play out almost like a film. The story in a narrative music video can follow the lyrics, or tell a similar story – or even something a little bit different. Film-like narrative music videos leave plenty of room for creativity and artistic expression, and they give you a great outlet to express a mood or concept that is greater than your song. Budget wise, it can vary – the more locations, camera and man-power you’ll need, the higher the budget will end up.

Make it Rain – Concept Videos

Concept videos aren’t your average music video – you really need to flex those creative muscles. Concept videos have zero rules and full creative reign, so your imagination can really run wild. This may mean serious budget implications, because the more props, locations, talent, cameras and days spent shooting, the more you’re spending. But it is all worth it to match up your epic song with your dream vision.

Understanding the different types of music videos available to you during production makes it much easier to make and stick to a budget – and as a bonus you’ll spend less time arguing with your band. Keep in mind that these types aren’t set in stone, and you may need to pull a little bit from one or two different styles to get the music video production that you’re after. We’d love to go over your needs and how we can help. If you’re in Wilmington, DE; Philly; Baltimore; NYC or beyond – contact us and we can talk you through the production process today. If you’d like to see some of our recent work, check out N’Front here – they’re an awesome band and we’ve helped them create a video that is a blend of a performance video with elements of narrative as a tribute to Gerald Levert.
