Which way do I go? 🔎 The meaning behind Yogi's words may surprise you. I sourced the story behind today's "Yogi-ism" from the Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center website. "While giving directions to his best friend Joe Garagiola to his house in Montclair, Yogi told Joe to take the fork. The fork was unique in that no matter which direction you chose, you would end up at Yogi and Carmen's house." Interesting, right!? In Yogi’s case, no matter the choice, you achieved the same result. We're rarely afforded that luxury. There's more to the story! Yogi was a risk-taker and wasn't afraid to take a fork in the road. Even though he couldn't always see what was ahead, he recognized opportunities would be available. The path forward is rarely a straight line. There's more than one way to get from point A to point B. A fork in the road is a gateway to action, not habit. "People who deliberate fully before taking a step will spend their lives on one foot." ~Chinese Proverb~ Consider the possibilities. You won't find "it" unless you first get there. 😉 Have you considered adding the value of voiceover to your marketing and advertising campaigns? How about your website? I can help you with that! 🎙 Always at your service! 🙏 #choices #voiceover #marketing #voiceoverartist #advertisingandmarketing

Good stuff I can finally share / talk about! Teachers…both school and private studio instructors…I’ve got a #musiceducation post here. First off…many thanks to Corey Brown for inviting me to be a part of the process of testing software last month. As many folks who have worked with me know (like the folks at NS Design and GHS Strings)…I freaking LOVE testing new products and providing detailed feedback. It’s just my jam. I love helping move music tech forward, whether in the realm of physical products or software. For the last few weeks, Corey invited me to test MuseClass, a product resulting from the union of Hal Leonard Music and MuseScore/MuseGroup. In my region, school was/is ending. Adult students are doing fine with lessons…younger students were getting tested within an inch of their resilience. Five tests a week, SOLs, AP tests…stressed out and worn out doesn’t begin to cover it. Corey offered me this opportunity at a great time. After asking permission, I brought in ALL my interested students to really test (and potentially break) the software. I saw tired students happily participate, get excited…and BE excited over the possibilities…especially in a time where school was stressful. Beta testing got them to be involved again…without feeling like they HAD to practice during the two weeks of testing. The reality is the beta testing got my younger guys picking up their instruments and practicing for the sake of exploring. Exploring. Not for a grade. Not because of parent threats. Curiosity. Nice, right? And many of my younger kids are still picking up their devices and their instruments….and exploring (which means practicing but with a healthier mindset), even with summer in full swing. Today, MuseGroup announced MuseClass, a new platform designed to revolutionize the future of music teaching. If you use MuseScore already, you’ll love Autograde! Check it out! https://museclass.com

Let’s work together and build out that idea you e been stuck on! There are now two options to work with me: 1. Vision map + recorded review 2.

I'm currently taking a sound design class with Woody Woodhall CAS at UCLA and part of the homework was to read "35 Essential Insights & Lessons Learned from 24+ Years In Sound by Sound Supervisor & Sound Designer Tim Nielsen. Great article. Two tips that stood out the most: #19 - Great sound cannot save a mediocre film. You cannot fix it in post. You will never be able to fix it in post. #32 - Every person you meet has something to teach you. Never close yourself off to that idea. #filmmaking #sounddesign #soundsupervisor #adr #foley #soundeditor #soundediting

Many music professionals have degrees in other industries (myself included and I still want to go back to get my masters)💯👩🏾‍🎓 The practical skills we learned through higher education can still be applied to the music industry. Some examples include: 📊 presentation skills 👩🏽‍💻group projects 📇 administrative skills 🌎social interaction And many more! Life in itself is a learning experience so NOTHING we’ve been through ia wasted 💜😇 #musicprofessionals #higherlearning #musicindustry #musicexecutives #musicbusiness #peachysweet #peachyspointers

What happens when you remove the classism from Hollywood and connect the artists directly with the filmakers? That's what we set out to do one year ago when we launched LOOR.TV officially. Since then we've grown a community of passionate early adopters, we have a backlog of artists waiting to serve them content, and we've funded 55+ titles available to stream, from movies, TV shows and documentaries. We've done this all despite the naysayers. We haven't died, although many people predicted we wouldn't last this long, and we continue to expand our content library, slowly and patiently building up a disruptor. We've stayed true to our values and refused to compromise for an investor check. We've been ghosted, and laughed at. But we never gave up. Jason Farley and I always ask ourselves if our army is still to big? It's no fun winning with a nuke. We don't have the resources of most steaming platforms or film studios but we've proven we don't need them. We don't get invited to fancy parties or red carpet events. And that's what makes us so dangerous. We're already cash flow positive before our one year anniversary. The technology and content is paying for itself despite the fact that you have to cast to the TV to watch anything and there are no apps in an app store! It shouldn't be possible. 😂 But it is. The next phase is investing in our team and expanding ease of access to more subscribers. Everything now goes towards growth and monetization. Welcome to year two.
