Forget the pressure to be constantly original. Your audience wants consistency. Familiar with a twist. "Give me the same but different," as they say in the music biz. Think about it: → Your favorite TV show follows a winning formula → The creators you follow have core ideas they revisit and reframe Repetition is a strength, not a weakness. You get tired of your messages long before your audience does. Why? It allows you to: 1. Reinforce your key messages 2. Give your audience the familiarity they crave 3. Explore nuances of your central themes The art is in finding new angles on evergreen ideas. So, creators: → Identify your defining themes that land → Explore these ideas from fresh angles → Add a simple twist to make the familiar feel novel Stay consistent with your narrative. It takes a ton of repetition for it to land. -- 👋 Follow James Mulvey for more content like this. ♻️ Repost to share with your network!

A couple weeks ago, a client asked me "Can we have our logo and music show up for the first 5 seconds before we appear on camera, for each of our short form videos?" > Here was my answer. Me: "Why" Client: "Because we really like it, it's part of our branding, and we paid for it, so we would like to show it at the beginning and at the end for each of the short form videos." Me: "Do you know how many seconds you'll need to get your audience's attention?" Client: "Ummm, no, what do you mean?" Me: "Studies show that if the first 3 seconds aren't captivating, viewers are more likely to scroll past or click away from your video." So does it still make sense to have your logo and music play for the first 5 seconds of each video, or should your videos get right to the point?"

The product and service that you are selling are important enough for your brand to be repeated. Because it serves the purpose of the brand, what we want to stand for, and why. And every time you do, here is what happens: 1. People, when they see the story, think to themselves, "I have heard that before, so this is repetition." Which means subconsciously they are saying to themselves, "I know what he wishes to say. I do not need to hear it again." Your brand has been solidified. 2. Alternatively, somebody completely new, who has no idea about you, is witnessing the story for the first time. So, repeating isn't annoying. It's only annoying when you force people to listen. But if they choose to follow you and hear you out, then repeating actually helps build your brand.

Enhancing Emotional Impact with Sound 🎧❤️ Are you finding it challenging to forge an emotional connection with your film? Investing time (and money) in audio refinement is essential; it transforms ordinary moments into unforgettable experiences that keep audiences emotionally invested in the journey of your story. By meticulously designing soundscapes and refining dialogue intelligibility, powerful emotions can be evoked, that resonate. For instance, incorporating ambient sounds or subtle musical cues can amplify tension in dramatic moments, while softer tones can create intimacy during pivotal scenes. Well chosen elements not only capture attention, but also enhance storytelling by guiding emotional responses. Having previously spent over a decade in the natural history sector, a world that RELIES upon emotional connection, I am more than versed within this sub-sector of audio post. So stay tuned for upcoming announcements soon! In the meantime - can you name any pivotal scenes or stories where sound played a crucial role in its journey?

As a recording artiste, there are levels of success you won’t smell if you don’t BLOW. Steady growth is supposed to bring you to a level of PROMINENCE. If this doesn’t happen a couple times on your journey, something’s wrong or you’re intentional about not blowing. I have carefully studied a few successful musicians(recording acts), there’s always a point where something about your career goes viral, it could be a song, an album, an interview, a LIVE performance, etc. So, while you’re growing, make sure your marketing efforts are channeled towards getting the attention of the world. Don’t just grow in skill, grow in visibility too, grow in positioning, and don’t forget to grow in numbers. Steady growth will give you the foundation to handle the effects fame will bring, so just keep developing capacity and don’t worry about that. But channel your strategies to aim for the world. The world is now your stage. Start local but don’t think small. With social media, you can have your own audience from all over the world, while you’re just in your small room. Start there. Aim for the world. Grow, but make sure your efforts are getting you positioned globally. You’re doing well. #VocalCoachWeySabi
