THE ART OF VIDEO PRODUCTION

Video production or ‘videography’ is the process of capturing moving images and then manipulating them. It can be used to describe the work of those who make music videos, those who make advertisements and those who create footage for broadcast on television and the internet. In essence, it involves the exact same aspects as film making – except that footage produced via videography is recorded electronically instead of transferred onto film stock. In today’s world of increasingly instant content, video production reigns supreme. Everybody wants to be a producer. It’s a job that’s as diverse as it is rewarding and as exciting as it is respected. What it is n’t though, is easy – despite what the uninitiated might think. Video production often does involve famous names and faces. It can include trips to glamorous locations or spending all afternoon photographing supermodels. On the other hand, you’re just as likely to end up shooting in a Watford car park as you are in Monaco. Your hours will be long. Your shoots will be punishing. Video production certainly isn’t a walk in the park. There are three distinct stages involved in successful video production. These stages are pre-production, production and post-production. [...]

2013 POP SONGS – MUSIC BEATS TO MOVE YOUR FEET

A ballad will make you cry while a rap or disco beat will invigorate you and make you feel positive. Romantic and love songs will take you to another world where you can visualize or might relate to your own story told by some other singer. The lyrics of some of the romantic songs are so powerful that they can even bring tears from your eyes. Ask any couple out there about any romantic song, they will definitely say that it is “their song”. In other words, music is the best way to energize your power once again. Songs of all genres has different appeal for different people – some prefer to hear romantic songs, while others like ballads, while some other people desire to listen to pop songs.

HOLLY GENTRY HAS ‘SO MUCH MORE’ TO OFFER

Holly Gentry is a southern Georgia native who gained a vocal scholarship to Wake Forest, but suppressed her musical tendencies as she proceeded to study and practice law. Eventually, however, she indulged her musical side, convinced that she had “so much more” to offer. Resulting from this existential choice is her full-length indie debut album, So Much More. Skope recently tracked her down to ask some questions… I’ve profiled a fair share of artists by now, and, to my knowledge, you are the first ex-lawyer. Was there a final straw event that made you forsake the lawyerly vocation ? Actually, I’m still a practicing attorney, so I haven’t forsaken it completely. I just don’t think the law is the right path for me. Just because you can do something, doesn’t necessarily mean you should. I didn’t enjoy law school, and was uncomfortable and anxious for the entire three years. The same hold true for the majority of my years in practice. I’ve just always felt anxious and uneasy doing the work. So, no real final straw. How long did you practice ? I’ve been in practice since 2002. Were there any sharp reactions from your colleagues? Not [...]

SIMPLE WAYS TO TAKE YOUR PRESS KIT FROM GOOD TO GREAT

If you have been trying to make a career in the music industry, you likely already know how important having a good press kit is for your band. But you may be wondering why, even though you have an interesting band history and some great songs, you are only receiving a lackluster response from agents and venue operators. The reason is likely because, though your press kit covers all the fundamentals of a good press kit, it is still lacking in some important details. If you are trying to take your press kit from good to great, you need to focus on these important, but often overlooked, details. Envelope If you are relying on a printed press kit, it is important to place yourself in the position of potential agents and venue operators. While you probably haven’t thought much about the envelope you are delivering your press kit in, this small item is vital as it will be the very first impression agents will have of your band. In fact, many band press kits go unopened because they fail to grab peoples’ attention. So how can you make your envelope stand out in a stack of unopened press kits on [...]

JIMMY RAE ON POINT WITH MAXIM SENIN

Get ready to wrap your brain around this lyricist from Latvia enjoying the sunny side of California. Whether it’s good, old-fashioned “California Dreamin’”or a dream of one day playing with Sting or Eric Clapton, Maxim Senin is definitely on the right path. Maxim had an excellent quote that I’d like to share with you right now before you get into the whole interview: “Songs are like children, and when you let them go into the world you worry about them, and you want them to succeed.” With a debut EP out titled ‘The Taming of the Wolf’, Mr. Maxim Senin is sure to be a howling success! J Rae: So I see that you grew up in Riga, Latvia (formerly the USSR) and now you’ve been living in Long Beach, California for the last 13 years. I have to ask what was that transition like going from Latvia to California? I have to imagine that the whole move from one country to another had to have been quite a culture shock for you. Maxim Senin: Definitely! Coming to LA in the middle of winter was the first shock – stepping out of the airplane I was still dressed in two [...]

KRIS WARREN IS “BLOWING UP”

There is nothing Kris Warren won’t turn his hand to when it comes to spreading the word about himself and the projects which he is involved with. Not only is Kris a bourgeoning music star, he is quite happy to turn his hand to acting so don’t be surprised if you see him on the silver screen at the Austin Film Festival this year when he appears in Swill, ‘a film about a cop, a Priest and a liquor store.’ Driven by his ability to create music from whatever he is feeling, this Chicago based rising star has taken every step so far with purpose. From dropping out of college, which to some might seem ludicrous, Kris Warren has learned and grown from this path and is already ‘paying it forward’ by encouraging teens from the Chicago area to look beyond crime and street gangs for their path. Speaking to Skope, Kris gives us a bit of insight into his musical side but you can guarantee he will be back on the site very soon with more announcements of what he has going on in his challenging, yet extremely rewarding life. When you look back on your life, was there [...]
