Busy day at the office today... Redid the press kit for a clean version and for updated press. We responded to Tempe Marketplace and The Borgata to book mall shows, corresponded with The Blaze to start coordinating college airplay for fall, sent emails to all U of A radio, contacted AZ Weekly, contacted A2Z magazine, put together our radio timeline and got the intern researching program directors and event coordinators for here, California and Vegas for the radio push. I'm excited to do some collabs with Bobby Anthony and a few other artists coming up, we're looking to redo My World with a Spanish chorus and to do some new songs with latin marketability. We're carefully picking our pop remixes for the radio push as well. The record label contracts are done from the lawyer, apparently the staff is reviewing them for the first time and then we move forward in a few days, it can't come soon enough.
After the office I met with Giulio and talked Java and Desert Living, event production, pushing the Stop/Go video, integrating with J. Pierce clothing, and making the best of this next push. Love going over there, it's always inspiring to see the media they both create and know about in their studio. Their currently working on a motion pinnup calendar (digital photos where the girls move) that is pretty much awesome. One of my friends is their July girl and she's straddling a phallic rocket on fire and the whole thing is just off the wall and amazing, like everything I see from that studio.
Carnegie comes through later tonight so we can mash out on the new DJ cd, tomorrow I design pretty much all day and night, new mixtape cover for Lickashot, logo redesign for Surge Nights, myspace for a club in DC, UNICEF invites, Form and Matter logo variations, Eldridge invites etc. It's the homie from King and Duck's birthday on Saturday, so might join him at Axis, haven't been there in forever. Sunday, designing clothing designs for the new collabs and getting ready to launch our new marketing.
After reading an article in Billboard today (the one with Black Eyed Peas on the cover), finally got inspired to get some solid Twitter marketing going, we were just unsure how to use it besides being funny prior. All our video from the past few months is edited into a few more Fear and Loathing episodes (Hollywood, Havasu, Hawaii etc.) but without the Fear and Loathing sadly (we've become to calm and friendly methinks). So our video presence, and our twitter is about to get back up strong, pushing new material downloads, art, collabs, remixes writings etc.
Today was a good day. Positive affirmation.
