OK,.. So it's my best picture, my wife, Vee, took it!!! And she is my partner..
in all things actually!
Musica is a multi-faceted promotion and consulting company. Clients
look to me to bring a wealth of experience and music indistry contacts to
their project. In a professional, timely and cost effective manner, i provide
music branding solutions to my clients.
I started out my career here in Los Angeles in 1989, after returning from
working on promotions in Japan.. Yes, I speak Japanese!!!... In Japan, i
had the opportunty to work on a 1950's Motor Show for Philip Morris, which
was an awesome experience. From 1989 - 1996 i owned a production company
doing commercials for Japan, had been a partner in a post production company
and a principal in a graphic design agency. All these experiences culminated
in the creation of Musica in 1996,.. with some of the first projects being
done with Tower Records and Tower Records Japan.
In 2000, i began working with Virgin Entertainment
Group for the creation of the very successful Virgin Recommends Campaign,..
which to date, we have done over 24 editions of the promotion in 7
years. The
Virgin Recommends CD campaigns compile the 16 tracks that the Virgin
Megastore employees feel are the best new releases. Over the years
we have had sponsors ranging from Dentyne Gum, Microsoft, American
Express, MTV and most recently Pontiac. My responsibilities included
securing all gratis Master and Publishing licenses for use the music/video
to be used in the promotion. From the partnership with Pontiac, i was
honored to be asked by Leo Burnett to do the commercial music licensing
for Pontiac.
In 2005, I started working with Filter magazine in
the creation of the Landmark In-Theatre Music program. Every month
we feature 12 - 16 artists in the in-theatre music promotion, which
play 1 song from each featured artist,.. and the Voiceover is always
done by one of the artists in the program.
In this sectionn, i will update you on new developments
in promotions i am creating but can't yet announce until they are
finalized. But big things are a brewing...!!!
