Bloody By Design | Album Release Promotional Video
At Hamil Bros Studios, we’ve had the privilege of collaborating with talented artists throughout West Texas, and one standout collaboration was with Jake Weatherman. We first crossed paths through various performances by our band, LABOR XII, and Jake, being involved in a couple of other music projects, was someone we connected with quickly. Jake had initially reached out to Jacob to perform a guitar solo for his upcoming solo project, Blood By Design’s album Gods of the Elements. Jacob added a little of his own musical flavor to Jake’s vision, and that was the start of what would turn into an exciting journey..
As the project progressed, we saw an opportunity to elevate Jake’s album release with a professional video promo. We pitched the idea, and Jake was beyond excited. Once we managed to align our schedules, we sat down with Jake to walk him through our video production process, particularly our storytelling approach. The end result? A video promo that not only showcases Jake’s passion for his music but also builds anticipation for his album’s release. Check out the final video here!
The Key Elements of Our Video Production Process
When it comes to video production, storytelling is at the heart of everything we do. For a project like Jake’s album promo, we have a few goals in mind to ensure the story we tell resonates with the audience. Let’s dive into the steps we take when creating a compelling video promo.
- Crafting the Origin Story
One of the most important elements in video production is ensuring your audience understands the story behind the project. With Jake’s Blood By Design album, we wanted to start from the beginning. The first thing we did was have Jake share the origin of his solo project, explaining how Blood By Design came to be. People love origin stories—it’s a tried and tested format that always draws in an audience. Think about how Marvel has built an entire universe on telling origin stories! - Diving into the Current Journey
Once we’ve established the origins, the next step is to focus on the present. What’s happening now with the project? For this, we wanted to hear all about the process of making Gods of the Elements, including who was involved and how Jake felt as he neared the finish line. This is where the core of the video production really comes into play. We wanted to bring the audience inside the creative process and let them feel the excitement and anticipation building up to the album’s release. - Providing Actionable Information
Finally, no video promo is complete without a clear call to action. Sure, we’ve told the origin story and explored the current journey, but we also need to give the audience something tangible—what can they do next? In this case, we focused on the live event surrounding the album’s release, providing essential details about the upcoming performance. A well-placed call to action helps keep the momentum going and gives the audience a reason to stay engaged.
Why Video Production Still Matters for Engaging Audiences
Video continues to be one of the most effective ways to communicate your message, and we believe in making it an experience rather than just delivering information. Whether it’s an album release or a corporate campaign, our video production services ensure that your story is told in a way that engages the audience and keeps them interested from start to finish.
