RTF, Music Business Students Produce Music Video

The New Braunfels-based “John Brewer Band” visited SAC Oct. 15 to shoot a music video with help from students in SAC’s Radio-Television-Film and Music Business programs in Studio B of the Jean Longwith Radio, Television and Film building.

Students enrolled in a lighting class focused on the production side of the music video while the Music Business students focused on audio production.

The video will serve as part of the band’s electronic press kit and help the band promote their music to a wider audience.

When the band’s lead guitarist failed to show for the shoot, Bryce Irving, a sophomore who worked on the video production, stepped up to play guitar for the band. Irving, who invited the band to the video shoot, had already been practicing with the band.

“Learning these songs in a short amount of time was the biggest thing for me … Any time you can be a part of something creative is a blast. It definitely beats manual labor,” Irving said.
