Updates galore

So first and foremost we apologize that it's been soooo long since the last #astarmadebyyou update - but that has been because the entire A Star Made By You team has been so busy with Ginny Vee.

But today we get a Sunday break to give you a full roundup of all the exciting news:

Firstly 

We have spent the last month finishing the #vocals and the debut single from Ginny - 

Titled Heaven n Back. The single has been #mixed and #mastered (by the famed ReferenceMastering Studios) thanks to Fabrizio De Carolis. The entire team is THRILLED with the result.

If you're quick you can get a sneak peak here on sound cloud... but hurry we are only leaving it up for a few days.

We also announced the Full "Heaven n Back" EP with the lineup of songs that will be released during 2014: Over the next month we will be working with 

Next

(And this has been taking the most of our time) the #asatrmadebyyou team shot the #musicvideo for Heaven n Back. This was huge collaborative effort of the entire team: Director - Gianluca Della Monica, Cinematography - Max Palmieri, Make Up - Tamara Totti, Stylist - Xenia Cuprianova, Hair (Devil Hair). This was a major 1 day shoot at Saporiti Studios of Rome.

The video has just entered into the phase of post production and will be ready for the scheduled May 1st launch - so keep watching for previews and exclusive clips.

Sponsorships

The team has been working hard on gaining sponsorships for the project and we landed our first partner DRIVE GUM - caffein loaded chewing gum. Thanks to the Drive Gum team for their continued and valuable support.

Official Ginny Vee Logo

Last month we ran our "Logo" competition for a designer to come up with the official Ginny Vee Brand logo. We scoured hundreds of entries and eventually chose this stunning logo by Perry Dezynez. #logo. It's beautifully crisp clear logo, simple, yet includes all the elements of Ginny and (note) the Star from A Star Made By You

Getting Social

This has been an extremely busy month for our social campaigns with Facebook. We were thrilled that we broke through 7500 Page likes and a huge boost in fan interaction. BUT it's not enough. We need each an every fan to share the page and help us to make #astarmadebyyou and #ginnyvee a breakthrough project.

We have also been boosting our campaigns on Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, Google+, Pinteretst and many other social sites-- BUT IT"S NOT ENOUGH so we need YOUR help to get more social sharing going on.

Distribution

Any key to the #musicindustry is to ensure you have full distribution. This month we founded the brand new record label "A Star Made By You" #astarmadebyyou #recordlabel - which went live on Friday. As an independent record label we want to do things VERY different. We are not interested in the normal distribution channels or record stores etc - we are going 100% digital. We are using the emerging services of Zimbalam and VEVO to get full global distribution of the music and videos. So keep watching as we announce availability on #itunes #googleplay #amazon

So again - we apologize for the delay in updating the blog, but as you can see we have been stretched to the limit with this ever growing project - which we think is coming along just great. BUT we need more help, more volunteers, more support, more sharing, more crowd managing. So do what you can to make your STAR the best they can be....

Working on the first EP

We have got already more then 2.000 "likes" on the Facebook Page

We have got more then 900 "followers" on the Twitter

And so many views and comments on Youtube, Instagram, Tumblr and Google+

     

So, now is time to:

Phase One is to help to build out the follower base by sharing links and sites and hashtags to help build the awareness of the project.

Phase Two is to help "design" Ginny - her look, her image, her sound

Phase Three is to then help Ginny become a star by boosting her brand all over the social platforms, supporting her songs, videos and activities.

The most loyal followers and supporters will become part of Ginny' inner circle of supporters - with special invites, special gifts, free tickets, updates prior to anyone else, and much deeper involvement in the project - having much more of a say.

BUT YOU NEED TO GET IN NOW!

We will be giving out codes - and special Hashtags that will identify our nearest and dearest supporters and with those codes you will be able to get into the inner circle.
