The Apache-Slide is a combination of two popular dances – the Mississippi Slide and Apache (Jump on it). Hurricane Productions created the dance as an easy instructional dance to use at all parties for all ages.
Hurricane Productions not only performed the Apache-Slide, its original instructional dance, last night at the DJ Expo’s ‘Mobile Kickoff Party’ at the Casbah, but the NJ DJ company also took photos at the event.
Mike Walter of Elite Entertainment hosted the event and it featured a variety of mobile DJ performers, including nominees for this year’s ‘DJ of the Year’
All of the photos are available on the company’s Facebook Fan Page.
New Jersey DJ companies are finding news ways to market entertainment beyond weekends.
One example of creating midweek work as well as weekday revenue is to offer clients photo and video montages with their entertainment packages.
John Heluk, owner of New Jersey-based ‘Party-On! DJ Productions,’ started making photo and video montages for fun until he realized how much of an upsell it was for prospective clients.
“It’s a simple way to maximize your value and its easy to insert montages into your sales presentation,” Heluk said.
Heluk mentioned “Thinking Outside the Box” in terms of creating photo and video montages. A DJ company doesn’t need to only rely on private affairs to create montage revenue. As seen in the graphic, Heluk suggested that DJ companies try to market montages to other events, even if DJing is not the client’s priority.
“Photo and video montages is a way to really capture an audience and expand your client base,” Hurricane Productions’ owner and entertainer Vincent Anthony said.
Hurricane Productions also makes its photos available on its Facebook Fan Page.
Hurricane Productions, a leading New Jersey DJ entertainment company, will compete for the DJ Times DJ of the Year Wednesday August 12 at the International DJ Expo in Atlantic City, NJ.
Vincent Anthony, the NJ DJ company’s lead entertainer, will be showcasing a two-song dance routine that was produced by co-owner DJ Strato and choreographed by Sandra Golis.
“I think our routine will be easy for everyone to learn and enjoy,” said Vincent Anthony. “Without saying too much, our music selection will please DJs, party hosts, dancers, and people outside the industry.”
Mike Walter of Elite Entertainment hosts the yearly competition which will be held at the Casbah in the Trump Taj Mahal from 8-11pm.
“Thank you for stepping up and agreeing to compete in this year’s DJ Times DJ of the Year Competition,” Walter said. “You have already separated yourself from the vast majority of DJs who would never even attempt to get involved. I honor your talent and courage.”
