(Los Angeles,Ca September 3, 2012) Music videos normally cost quite a bit of money to make. By the time you get a crew, cast, wardrobe, and craft services etc…. You usually have to have a sizable budget. If you are an artist and you don’t have a hefty wallet but you still want a great video then you would want to keep reading this.
If you haven’t seen them performing around your city, on TV, online or at charity events then the odds are you have heard of them. They are 2-U-Neek you know those twins Ashley and Ashton. They have been called to open for various major recording acts like Disney’s Raven, Jonas Brothers, Beyonce, Robin Thicke seen on BET, Jimmey Kimmel, performing in the Staple Center. This summer 2-U-NeeK has been performing around Southern California making appearances , recording PSA’s for charities and more. Another thing the twins have done is too go back in the studio to record new songs that they have written. Their latest single is entitled “Out of Control”. It is a pop dance that has just been released on ITunes, CDbaby and Amazon. The track credit goes to DC aka Zouhir Quorchi of Germany. We also had Marcus “Bell Ringer” Bell assist with vocal production and engineering and Tim Gerron mastering. You will also be able to hear a club mix as well from DC soon.
2-U-Neek and their manger decided that they could use a great music video to help push their single which is already getting some good buzz in the streets. They really did not have a budget at the time ,however they proceeded to make the video a reality. They put the word out to different ones about their desires and after a while spoke to an out of state relative named Mello who also helps with some creative areas of the group. He knew a film crew in Cali called Tha Deviants. The twins had somewhat of a treatment for the video and once they met with Tha Deviants( Joey and Luis) things just came more and more together. Now with a film crew booked there was a need for other crew and cast. Ashton had suggested the use of mannequins in a scene.Instead of buying expensive mannequins the twins made the mannequins themselves with the instructions of a DIY video on YouTube. The hunt was on for a photographer to capture history, make-up and hair stylist, wardrobe and craft services as well as a location. This all has to be done on a dime. Some online posts on social sites and craigslist helped to make some key connections to get the video done. This was not an easy task. Since the crew was ask to do this on a volunteer basis. After a period of time a venue and crew was put together and the Dream Makers came together, Karen Rosenbaum (Photography), Jaeleah Guida(wardrobe), Lora Shepherd(make-up and hair), Lula,Tha Deviants and of course 2-U-Neek. On Sunday Aug. 19th, 2012 at TVP Studios in Burbank history was made and a great music video “Out of Control”.
Shout out to Ashley for styling two outfits in the video and dance choreography. 2-U-Neek thanks all of their Frans (friends/fans) for their support. 2-U-Neek offers a bit of advice “If you have a dream or a goal go for it don’t think the wall is too big that you can’t get over it). 2-U-Neek and their team needed to make a good video on a dime and took steps to make it happen.
