Who I'd like to meet: Investors who would like to get into the music industry. If you are interested in starting a Record Label and need a studio to work with, let me know. I'm also wanting to hook up with a publisher that has serious know how, contacts and legit $$$ backing.
thank you sooo much mr. steve. i'm hoping my new EP will be under your wing and your production. i'm looking forward working with you in the near future! :D
Steve, We have got to do a live version of the title cut and Dew Drop By. What Chance Is It, My Heart, and Don't Worry really minister. Ok so have I named all of the songs yet? From beginning to end this project is phenomenal. It brings back memories of when we would turn on your recorder at your apartment in Bitburg. We have got to do it again.
Want your commercial shown in theaters during the "Close, but Closer" Movie Previews ?
The new movie "Close, but Closer" is set to debut late September / early October. We are currently offering 30-second spots to be shown in the movie theater before the movie as well as to be included on the DVD version of the movie.
As part of the celebration for our theatrical debut we're offering fellow filmmakers, artists, business owners, etc a special deal:
30-second commercial spots
$50 we shoot it for you $25 to submit your own
Everytime the movie is shown in the theater your spot will be seen also just like you see anytime you go to the movies. Being in this industry we know how important exposure is so we came up with a way to share this opportunity with others.
Rules are as follows: --------------------------
- It can be a commercial, promo drop, or whatever else you wanna fit into the spot
- It can be up to 30 seconds
- It will be shown in the theater before the movie "Close, but Closer"
- You can include whatever you want material wise as far as rapping, singing, dancing, music, movie previews, etc as long as it promotes or advertises in some way and not just showing random clips.
The deadline is September 22nd, 2008
Due to time and crew contraints we are only available to shoot spots in the Greenville / Spartanburg area. However this does not apply if you are submitting your own.
Submitted materials are subject to approval by The SC Film Group as we reserve the right to deny anything we feel is inappropriate.
Obscene materials / footage containing profanity, nudity, etc will not be permitted.
