It’s March since we last ‘spoke’ and we have just completed the sound design on Lily – a film by Kas Burgess Winner of last years St Kilda Film Festival Monkeesee Award for best musical composition. This year’s festival is almost upon us with Opening Night at the Palais on May 25th.
This weekend saw the first active Groovin The Moo festival in Bendigo, a project our new venture d.tail has been working on since the start of the year. Pleased to announce it was a sell out with 15,000 happy punters as are Maitland and Townsville with only limited tickets available in Bunbury and Canberra.
The tenacious Jessica Watson is also close to sailing into Sydney Harbour. Another of d.tails social media management projects this has been an amazing and inspiring journey to be a part of.
In the studio we have had the Department of Transport, commercials for the Army , Adriatic, Nandos and lots of trade shows amongst other campaigns.
Much has been written about the changing nature of advertising, in particular the disbursement of advertisers spending across of variety new media and ofcourse in the regard the impact of social media networks. No doubt internet speeds will have a dramatic impact on all media streams and in particular free to air TV and radio. We are already seeing major issues arising in publishing, most specifically newspaperrs and the book industry.
With a long history in the music business we know first hand how quickly the end arrives. At Monkeesee we are endeavouring to structure both our work practices and fees to match the changing requirements of our clients.
