Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can ReelMusician get a jingle produced?
Production time from
start to completion really depends on a number of elements. The most important factor though is how much of the creative brainstorming
that needs to take place with our creative staff and your company. Some customers know exactly what they are looking for while
other clients need some time to go over concepts, review ideas before they are ready to settle in on an idea - and we don't mind taking
as much time that is needed for you to feel comfortable with the music production and commercial ideas. We are more than willing
to offer suggestions and help with lyrics, voice over content and with the whole feel of the commercial. We can complete
a jingle overnight and same day if needed, with usual production time averaging 2 business days after the go ahead.
Can
you take video and insert effects, music and voice overs?
Absolutely - In 5.1 surround sound if you'd like! We have a
great collection of sound effects, music beds both real and surreal that we can format ready for TV commercial and
film broadcast with amazing results! Both our music production software and outboard gear is among the finest and and
can be heard on shows like "24" with Keifer Sutherland and many block buster movies. We also have some of the most talented
voice over folks in the business - You've most likely heard some of them on TV and Radio already!
We're a small company - Can
we afford your services?
We can almost guarantee that our fees will be affordable and that you will feel that you absolutely
got your moneys worth! No "basement productions" here.
Why is there such a cost difference between jingle companies?
Quite
honestly, like in any business, there are levels of expertise and production quality. Those starting out with little experience to
those who can't or don't obtain enough work, for a multitude of reasons, often times will heavily discount their work.
Cheaper jingle companies typically use "affordable" singers and musicians and their work and yours if you decided to go that route
will most undoubedtly sound cheap, have no positive impact on your sales and be seen as unoriginal. We believe that ReelMusician
is priced affordably with some of the hottest jingle productions in the industry. We are certainly not the cheapest, but just
Listen to our music production and then listen to others and the words "wow" will inevitably be heard because
of our solid committment to excellence. Our music production staff is first class, hands down, and that's all there is to it!
How
do we get started and how does the process work?
Once we both have a basic understanding of your production requirements, we
will of course quote you a price. With your approval we will begin to work on all of the ideas that you have
in mind perhaps offering some suggestions that we know that work well and ideas to steer away from. Being a creative company
we will come up with an array of concepts and ideas for you to choose from and we'll make sure that you are completely onboard
with any and all music production in the works. We will correspond and drive home a myriad of ideas until we have the
key ingredients in place that we know you will be happy with. Then we go to town on the production end
and create multiple edits based upon your needs and past conversations - It's really that easy and we're really that easy to
work with!
Why don't you offer "free idea" jingles for our company to hear?
Simply because we are so busy writing commercials
for companies who are serious about their image, increasing their sales revenue and who are more concerned about a quality and sound
commercial campaign then they are about a "freebie." Don't misunderstand, we would love to write everyone a free commercial,
but the level of musicianship and singers that we use and pay are more than likely substantially greater than most other jingles
writers, who sing the spots themselves or pay for sub-standard singers and musicians.
