This week I'm sharing with you the music that I use for the podcast. Back in 2013 I wanted to make a Lo-Fi electronic album. I recorded this using a korg kaossilator,  I then played guitar over the top and my brother played bass.  The last track is a song I wrote on a different album at the same time. I was looking to get an MC to rap on the track but I changed directions and focused on my art so I decided to turn the track into the City Kitty Rap Song which I recored with a few friends at the ADR studio at Sound One at the Brill Building in Time Square. I later made a wheat paste with a 1-800 number you could call and listen to the song. I later made a music video to go with the song.  1. Bolt2. Dead Letter Station3. Duende4. Funky Little Train5.

When the Crown Chakra is balanced, we feel a strong connection to our intuition and the spiritual realm. We feel confident in our multi-dimensional selves and our ability to connect with the Divine. Our thoughts are clear, and we can access higher levels of consciousness. We feel wise, connected, and at peace. When the Crown Chakra is imbalanced, we may feel disconnected from our spirituality, lost, confused, and searching for answers. We may feel like we are in a dark night of the soul. We may experience anxiety, depression, and addiction. The good news is that there are many ways to heal and balance the Crown Chakra. One way is through the use of sound. Sound healing is a powerful tool that can help to open, balance, and heal the Crown Chakra. What is the Seventh Chakra? The Seventh Chakra, Sahasrara, is a place of enlightenment, inner knowing, and spiritual truth. It is the highest energetic center in the body and is associated with the pineal gland, which is the gland that secretes hormones related to sleep and dreaming. The color associated with the Crown Chakra is purple, and the vibration is the sound of OM. This chakra is also connected to spiritual awareness, and the ability to manifest and manifest your intentions into reality. The energy of this chakra helps to bring in the energies of the Divine, the Higher Self, and the Universe. When the Crown Chakra is open and balanced, it allows us to access higher levels of consciousness and spiritual growth. How to Open Up Your Crown Chakra with Sound : One way to open up and balance the crown chakra is by using sound. Sound healing is a powerful tool that can help to open, balance, and heal the Crown Chakra. Julie Jewels Smoot is a Sound Alchemist, and she knows how to use sound and vibration to open and balance the Crown Chakra. She offers a powerful sound healing practice that takes thirteen minutes to open and balance the Crown Chakra. This practice involves a combination of tuning forks and quartz crystal singing bowls that vibrate in harmony to break up blockages and open up the Crown Chakra.  --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/julie-jewelssmoot0/message

In 2012, Sound One, possibly the most successful post-production facility in New York City’s history, closed its doors after 44 years of business. What caused the demise of Sound One is a point of contention between the clients, former owners, founders and staff, who hold multiple theories about why it failed financially. Some blame a distant holding company in Denver who some say were out of touch with the needs of the local community in New york and undermined the business practices which required creative and financial flexibility to maintain its base of both established and up and coming filmmakers. Others cite a long process of chipping away at the character of Sound One over a period of time during which the company was bought and sold five times to various entities.Here former staff and clients explain in their words, how the end of Sound one came to be and how in the wake of its undeniable force created new pools of talent and multiple post-production facilities in New York, all of them strengthened by the work ethic and familial bonds of developed at Sound One.Frame By Frame is a podcast series hosted by editor Isabel Sadurni, that introduces you to the most influential, respected and accomplished cinema post-production professionals working in New York today.

 PLAY PODCAST In the late 1960’s and early 70’s, years before Sound One had established itself as one of the most successful and highly respected sound facilities on the East Coast, it was a solo operation. Elisha Birnbaum, a sound editor and foley artist who had recently emigrated from Israel, worked with a small team but quickly developed a reputation for creating a highly productive, family atmosphere filled with astonishing creativity, quality product and quick turnaround time that attracted both the established and uninitiated to work at his studio.  At its apex of productivity Sound One would take in 85% of all post-production work in New York City and would help launch the careers of both post production professionals and filmmakers like The Coen Brothers, Spike Lee, Alan Pakula, Michael Moore and Ken Burns among others.  Here staff and clients share stories about the personal bonds and animal spirit that helped define the dynamics at work at Sound and how they created what has come to be known as the Sound One Family. From 1968 to 2012, Sound One grew from a solo operation to becoming the most successful post-production sound and editing facility on the East Coast. At its apex, Sound One inhabited five floors of the famed Brill Building housed 150 edit suites and over 300 clients and staff at its apex and commanded 85% of post-production business in New York. As its reputation grew, it became the go to post-production home for such filmmakers as Sidney Lumet, Arthur Penn, George Roy Hill, Jonathan Demme, Woody Allen and Martin Scorsese and through its constant support of independents, helped launch the careers of  filmmakers like the Alan Pakula, Spike Lee, The Coen Brothers, M.

Indie Brand Builder:  discussions with creative entrepreneurs and industry experts on how to build a 7 figure product busines

Photography Browse any high-end magazine like a Vanity Fair or Vogue for a reminder of how much premier lifestyle brands value photography.  It is one of the most important assets in your marketing arsenal and a critical factor if you want to improve your brand image Generally, you can break your photography down into two categories (I’ll cover both): Product photography, whose primary purpose is to provide detailed views of the product to someone who may be considering purchasing it online or through a catalog. Lifestyle photography, which is meant to associate your products with desirable people, experiences, and feelings. So lets’ explore which factors have the most impact on improving your brand’s image through photography… Lighting Lighting is crucial to taking a high-quality photo. For product photography, this means bright lights that do not reflect off the product or cast any undesirable shadows. When it comes to lifestyle photography, you’ll want to ensure that you have relatively flat, even light that does not cast harsh shadows across the product or the model. If shooting outside, you may require a reflector to augment the lighting of your shots. Here are a few techniques for getting outdoor lighting right Models It seems obvious but I’ll say it anyway: attractive models make your products appear more desirable. You may not have the budget for a supermodel, however spending a little extra to hire someone with modeling experience can make a huge difference to getting great photos and improve your brand image. Styling & Locations There’s nothing worse than reviewing photos that you’ve just spent a lot of time and money on, and noticing that hair is out of place, or something is off with the background that makes an otherwise perfect shot unusable If you’re doing a lifestyle shoot, you should carefully plan clothing, accessories, props and locations. Scout locations in advance to choose angles and backgrounds before models are standing around waiting. Consider having somebody at the shoot dedicated to keeping an eye on makeup, hair, upturned collars etc. It will save you a lot of grief in post-production. If you want to up your game, you could even choose a theme that will inform your location and styling choices. Shooting When shooting products, you’ll want to shoot as many angles and use cases as possible. This’ll give viewers on the Internet more confidence when purchasing a product that they have not seen in person. If you’re selling clothes, you may need to consider whether you will show them on a model or off – or both. In either case product photography works best when shot against a white or neutral background. You might consider purchasing a light box that ensures a consistent background and flat lighting, if appropriate for your products.   Design and Layout   The main principle I apply to design and layouts is minimalism. Minimalism is not just about showing less, it’s about clarity. It is much more difficult to come up with one statement, image or design that represents your brand then simply throwing in as much as you can fit on the page – but if your goal is to improve your brand image, the effort is well worth it. Minimalism By surrounding your images or messages with negative space (or white space) , you’re unconsciously communicating a sense of clarity and focus that is typically associated with desirable brands. Less is more, and taking the time to refine your message results in a premium perception. Avoid hyperbole and work hard to remove any words images or design details that are superfluous. Where appropriate, try to use a single image to convey an idea. Consistency Strong brands understand their essence and do their best to communicate this in every medium. If your photos, fonts, and overall design share a common visual aesthetic it will give your brand a perceived premium value. You should choose no more than 2 or 3 different fonts and be very intentional about their use. The style of photography and other visual assets should also be consistent across all of your materials.   Social proof Most people respond strongly to social influence. In other words, they are looking for cues and clues that whatever actions they take and believes they hold our aligned with society as a whole.  In aligning your products with notable people or publications,  as well as the positive sentiments of previous customers you will be improving your branding by giving it support and validation. Press coverage Sometimes the main value of press coverage is not the coverage itself, but the ability to leverage that coverage as social proof. SoYoung features the logos of major publications that have covered us on our homepage. Currently, these include the Washington Post, Martha Stewart Living, Oprah Magazine, and People Magazine. Are you impressed? Yep, that’s how it works. Testimonials Even if you haven’t been covered by major publications yet, you can solicit testimonials from satisfied customers to increase trust with prospective buyers. If possible, feature the full name and an image of the person  – anything that increases legitimacy. Celebrity In today’s celebrity-saturated culture, some opinions are worth more than others. SoYoung happens to have photos of celebrities using our products, so this is incredibly valuable in building brand credibility and improving your branding. If appropriate, you may consider gifting products to celebrities in an effort to get photographs of celebrities using your products. The photos typically take care of themselves (Most of the photos we have were found on celebrity gossip sites, which customers and retailers alerted us to)   Brand Messaging & Copy Your messaging needs to strike a balance between describing what your product is and illustrating its benefits. I am often surprised how often taglines leave me with no idea what the product actually is or how it is different. In the early stages of your brand, being able to powerfully summarize your business in one sentence is more important than having a catchy phrase.   Description Your first task is to clearly describe your product in unambiguous terms. Explain what your product or brand is, who it is for and what it’s primary value is to the purchaser. Use this format to start with. Our product/brand helps _____(who)_________  to do/feel/achieve ____(what)_________ so that they can _____(why)_______ This may end up sounding a bit generic, but it will give you a good start. Feel free to use it as a foundation for crafting something more creative: Benefits Once you have created a clear description, you should develop short statements around the unique benefits to your custom. I like to choose three main benefits that focus on the emotional needs of your customer in the most aspirational terms possible. Common areas to explore are: saving time/money, convenience, freedom, attractiveness, wealth, health, and safety. As a general rule, I like to begin all benefit statements with an action verb such as “get”, “achieve”, “create”, etc. These types of words help you focus on clearly communicating the transformation a buyer can hope to receive by purchasing your product. Features At the finest level of detail, you will need to list your products features. Statistics and hard facts are the way to go here. This type of information is most appropriate on a product page, once people have a high-level affinity for your brand and products.   Video Video can be very effective at deepening affinity for your products and allow you to improve your brand image. You don’t need a Hollywood level production to make an effective video, however, you should have some baseline quality standards – the 10-year-old camcorder in your closet is probably not going to cut it. Fortunately, the equipment required in making a professional looking video is becoming increasingly affordable and user-friendly. Shooting video is something you can undertake yourself. However depending on your ambitions and budget, you might also consider outsourcing. There are many talented and affordable videographers who can save you a lot of time and help you get something that you’re happy with. If you want to get deeper into producing your own video, Wistia has some great tutorials. (We also use Wistia’s video hosting service) Video Equipment Most recent smartphones take decent HD video. However for superior results, consider a digital SLR or mirrorless camera with a high-quality lens that will provide some depth of field – a true professional effect. We use a Sony a6000, which costs about $600. It takes excellent video and has the added bonus of autofocus in video mode (which many digital SLR’s don’t have), ensuring your subject is always in focus. Sound One of the biggest giveaways of an amateur video production is poor audio – usually resulting from using the built-in mic on the camera itself. For best results, you’re going to want to use either an external boom mic or a lav mic which can be attached to the person speaking. We use a $200 Bluetooth clip mic designed specifically for our camera that does away with the inconvenience of wires and delivers Lighting As with photography, having the right lighting can make a huge difference to how your video turns out – though modern cameras are more forgiving in lower light. Still, if you’re shooting indoors you will probably want some lighting equipment to ensure the shot looks bright and crisp. The main principle is to ensure your foreground subject – especially if it is a person’s face – is well lit. Here’s a good tutorial from Wistia on putting a simple lighting kit together. Shooting As with photography, you’ll want to ensure you have a list of shots and a script, if relevant, before your shoot. You should also scout your locations in advance and plan your angles. If you want to take your video production to the next level, you’ll need to cover a few different perspectives and mix in what is called B-roll. This is supplemental imagery that supports the narration and gives you an elegant way to edit together a couple of different takes. Shooting from different angles and distances also helps break up the shots and add visual interest. You can see all of this demonstrated in a video we shot for SoYoung’s Charlie Bag Editing Assuming your video is primarily for web consumption, you’ll want to make it as short and focused as possible by editing it down to the essentials. Build around the narration or visual script and break up your shots, so that the viewer isn’t just watching a single view of someone speaking at the camera the whole time. In terms of audio editing, some light background music can help create an overall mood and elevate the video, particularly if it’s short. Just make sure it doesn’t overpower any narration. Finally, improve your brand image by making sure you add your logo and a call to action to the beginning and ending of the video, in case someone is watching it on a platform like Youtube rather than your website.   How to Improve your Brand Image: Conclusion This is a high-level overview on how to improve your brand image, however, I hope it gives you some motivation and insight on where to look for the quickest wins. If you’re planning on outsourcing any of these tasks, the downloadable cheat sheet will provide you with talking points to discuss with your provider, and ensure you’ve got everything covered.
