What She Does...
MUSIC PRODUCTION
From song selection to the final mix and master, Donna has a plan for you and can work within your budget to make a stand out recording to reach the masses. She is an "attention to detail" producer with a creative flair for arranging unique vocals and capturing the emotion of a song. Her greatest concern is to learn about you and what your album needs to say and how it needs to be said. She is not limited by musical genre. She produces everything from Southern Gospel, to pop country, to hymns, and contemporary music.
The delivery of the music you record from the stage is one of the most important aspects of ministry. There is a big difference between nervously walking through a program and having a solid plan in place to most effectively convey what God has led you to share in your ministry. Donna will help you put a plan together that isn't rigid, but is sincere, to best reach your audience with God's love.
Donna has been teaching voice for more than a decade. She is excited to share and watch the growth of her students as she imparts her experience in vocal technique upon them. Donna believes that a teacher who continues to be a student will always be a better teacher. The process of learning and relearning never stops. Soloists and groups who are willing to learn will do better at communicating their call and Donna is always excited to help. She does not schedule weekly lessons at this time, but is willing to work with people on a periodical basis and also through the recording process.
Once a recording is complete there are several ways to take the music to your target audience. A key mode of communication is through radio. Donna has tremendous experience at facilitating airplay for her artists. She also has vast chart success, but she has always held to her own motto..."Radio airplay for the Christian artist is much more about reaching the heart than it is about reaching the chart." This philosophy has led to success for her artists in both areas.
Getting your message delivered is an important part of ministry growth. There is nothing like getting the word out on what's happening in your life and calling. Donna is an experienced publicist and can help you by writing and releasing press about you and what is going on in your ministry life.
