What we're all about...
Our team has mastered the art of capturing the vibe of an experience, and showcasing it in a way that gets people to stop scrolling. The reason you’re interested in getting video is that you’re excited about conveying an idea or feeling- and the team at Dogtown is all about holding onto that initial spark, and nurturing it throughout the creative process. Launching a music career can be hectic, but getting reliable video coverage doesn’t have to be. We pride ourselves on being a team that makes communication and collaboration easy. Because making a video should be fun, not just another stressor on your to-do list.
But it doesn’t stop there… We deliver more than just high-quality videos; we can create a comprehensive social media presence that can change the game for you and your band. Any social media consultant will tell you the same truth: Consistency is key! We’ve spent years meticulously systematizing our editing process, allowing us to consistently produce top-caliber content for you throughout the year! We can even take the responsibility for posting it to your socials, so you never have to worry about inconsistency or lapses in your social media presence!
Whether we’re creating short-form content from event footage or scheduling regular shoot days to batch-produce content, we’re always finding the best ways to keep your social media presence authentic, fresh, and relevant.
Stale video is out. Let’s make it fun again. Get in touch- we’d love to create something together!
How It All Began:
Dogtown Studio is a recording studio specializing in recording “Live Session” videos. Robby Fischer and Tito Mendoza started the Dogtown Studio Sessions in 2018, and have been going strong since then. Robby and Tito have been musicians and best friends since elementary school days, and they have been creating together for just as long.
Dogtown Studio was started for musicians, by musicians. Our role is to get in tune with your musical aesthetic and to collaborate with you to cultivate a visual aesthetic that is a natural outgrowth of it. We have a holistic view of art, and we believe that music is about more than just what you hear- it’s also about what you feel and what you see!
And we have experience when it comes to that- we’ve done over 300 Live Session videos since our outset, so we have learned about what works and what doesn’t from first-hand experience.
In 2022, Dogtown Studio was awarded an Ovation Award by the Michigan Music Alliance for outstanding contributions to the local music community. Michigan Music Alliance provided the following explanation for awarding this honor to Dogtown Studio:
About The Studio
