Serious online vocal jazz clinics
Tuesday, April 6, 2010 at 1:47AM Alright...so Julia and I have figured out how to most efficiently and effectively do online vocal jazz clinics now, and we're going to have to get the word out about it, because we just did a round this evening for a Northern California school, and we feel pretty good about it, honestly. Here's the deal...
For something like 5% of what you'll probably spend going to one of the big festivals (with transportation, fees and lodging), you can have the following experience from us...
- Upload a video of your group performing any number of tunes, using our handy "Clinic Drop Box" on this site (gotta be signed in)
- Use the Online Clinic order form to let us know what you'd like us to do, with the best value option probably being the audio only clinic, at $20 per minute of music submitted.
- Julia and I will watch your video while we record into our beautiful studio mic, giving feedback as we pause the video often to elaborate on points and give demonstrations. We won't be whispering, and we won't be breathing into a mic, and you'll get it back REALLY soon after you send it, in the form of a digital file that you can download directly from our server from a link.
- You'll be able to share the link with your students, if you want, and have them listen outside of class, prepping for the next rehearsals, in which you can tackle some of the new stuff we caught.
- You'll go to Reno, Greeley, Lionel Hampton, SWCC, Fullerton or WHEREVER and score about five points higher than you would have otherwise (or, in a non-competitive sense, you'll get more specific feedback from the judges that adds to what we caught and what you've been stressing to your kids all year anyway!).
Seriously, a pretty good deal, I think, and it's absolutely enjoyable for Julia and me, as well.
Get in touch and hook your group up with an online clinic right away! That way, you won't have your kids doing this...
