Video Press Kits for Musicians and Performers

Since 1995, Freakfilms, Inc. has been working with independent and major label musicians to create inspiring and unique video press kits. Their customized approach and professional attitude has won them the attention of several Grammy nominated musicians, including soul artist, James Hunter.

Video press kits provide an instant connection with your target audience, and are an affordable way to spread the word about your music via YouTube, MySpace, etc. They provide an effective accompaniment to album press releases, and have shown to be an invaluable way to generate interest in the music and the stories behind the artist's songs.

Freakfilms, Inc. has also worked with managers and major distributors such as Starbucks, Amazon.com and BarnesAndNobles.com to come up with effective "video teasers" to play alongside an artist's listing page, which generates interest in the artist while shopping on Amazon.com. (see examples below).
