Music Composition and Arranging

Commercial Video Soundtrack

You have seen those corporate videos — the ones with the cheesy stock elevator music soundtracks. Use this uninspiring generic music, and you may cheapen your brand. Instead, you can inspire your clients and/or employees with a custom-written soundtrack that will connect the audience with the message you are presenting.

Music is an underutilized tool in the current marketing universe, and you can boost concept retention and product interest by using quality music in your informational videos.

We can help with your special projects, including: HR videos, product promo videos, new business promo videos, public service announcements, and more.

 

Movie/Film/TV

Have you ever watched a movie without a soundtrack? It can be downright bizarre, even disorienting, which is why many filmmakers use placeholder music while a movie is in production.

Music drives the emotion of your story, and we can help you express your vision in a way that pulls the viewers deeper into the world you create. From classical instrumentation to rock or pop songs composed specifically for the project, we will do our part to collaborate with directors and music supervisors to create music for your film, movie, or TV show.

Projects we can help with: independent movies, short films, TV series, documentaries, pilots, and more.

 

Arranging

Many of our past clients have come to us with a song/melody/lyrics and the need for a musical arrangement or backing track to complete the piece. We can help you bring your song to where it can be fully appreciated by the listeners.

With our arranging service, we also can help you by creating versions of either a complete work or alternate styles of a piece of music. Want a rock version of your acoustic song or a string quartet version of the pop song you wrote? These are things we can do for you.

Projects we can help with: adding instruments to a current arrangement, creating new version of a complete song, expanding or simplifying an arrangement of composed works, and more.

Need help with mixing your record? Want to replace keyboard sounds? Do your drums sound flat? Did your tracking engineer cut corners to save time/money?

We know how to help. We’ve got the education, experience, and staff to handle any project. With our process and state of the art technology, we can improve the sound quality of most musical recordings.

Common Problems We Solve:

The Problem The Bandog Solution
Dull, flat, or low energy drums
  • Extract the drum performance and add perfectly recorded sounds
  • Process and mix existing audio

Fake sounding strings or virtual instruments
  • Resample with high-end instrument samples.

Recording needs a professional mix
  • Let a highly trained engineer with great ears and industry standard equipment go to town on you session
Mix great but its not quite polished and/or loud enough
