Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “...to the Creative Spirit that let me in, and to all my Music Buds who took the journey back then, and by guile, gall, hand, heart, and mind, sound or otherwise, had the will, persistence, tenacity, and desire to succeed back when it was still fun, yeah.” Promo Monkey: My Life as a BellHop in the Waldorf Hysteria is written in the key of R2 major.

Download or read book Promo Monkey Monkey See Monkey Two written by RayMan Ramsay and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2021-07-08 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “If the music biz is legit, then roller derby is an Olympic event.” In this bitingly hilarious memoir, Promo Monkey: Monkey See, Monkey TWO, RayMan Ramsay gives readers a backstage pass into the heart, soul (and, often, bowels) of the music industry. On April Fool’s Day in 1968, a wise-cracking, opinionated 19-year-old Ramsay landed a warehouse job at Quality Records/TPC. Music became part of his DNA. Ramsay ultimately spent 36 years in the business, hustling as a promotions rep and manager in the Vancouver and B.C. markets for Quality/TPC and RCA/BMG. In Promo Monkey, each chapter (Ramsay calls them “chatters” in his signature style, laden with puns, jokes and double entendres) breaks the music industry open, giving readers a peek inside at artists, acts and their “peeps,” through missives on artists such as Sammy Davis Jr., Otis Redding and Kenny Rogers, along with his trials and triumphs as a promo rep. Written in “Wryman” vernacular (and sometimes, dialect), he also unleashes screeds on punk rock, The Beach Boys and Chuck Berry, while dedicating plenty of airtime to icons such as David Bowie, The Beatles, and The Rolling Stones. Ramsay’s at his best, p’raps (as he’d put it), when unleashing rhapsodies about Canadian artists such as the late John Bottomley and Doug & the Slugs, as well as the many hardworking colleagues and industry pros he laboured and laughed with throughout the years on one very wild and musical ride.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the trailers and promos that surround film and television to the ads and brand videos that are sought out and shared, promotional media have become a central part of contemporary screen life. Promotional Screen Industries is the first book to explore the sector responsible for this thriving area of media production. In a wide-ranging analysis, Paul Grainge and Catherine Johnson explore the intermediaries – advertising agencies, television promotion specialists, movie trailer houses, digital design companies – that compete and collaborate in the fluid, fast-moving world of promotional screen work. Through interview-based fieldwork with companies and practitioners based in the UK, US and China, Promotional Screen Industries encourages us to see promotion as a professional and creative discipline with its own opportunities and challenges.

With case studies on mobile communication, television, film and live events, this timely book offers a compelling examination of the industrial configurations and media forms, such as ads, apps, promos, trailers, digital shorts, branded entertainment and experiential media, that define promotional screen culture at the beginning of the twenty-first century.
