Work/Forse Media/D'Shay · 2023
Beggars Believe
Music promo · Behind the scenes · Social clips
A studio-day promo for D'Shay: BTS, performance, and social cuts so the record could travel with a face and a feeling attached.
Pain points
- A track without a face is easy to skip. Fans want to see the work, not just hear the file.
- Artists need promo they can drip across stories, Reels, and YouTube without a second shoot.
- Studio days are messy. The film has to find the magic without sanding off the session.
Solution
Get in the room. Film the session, the downtime, the take that lands, then cut a promo and a set of social clips from the same day.
Campaign
I filmed D'Shay at a recording studio for Beggars Believe: behind-the-scenes, performance, and short promo cuts built for his socials. One session, a campaign the fans could follow.
All the Forse Media work has to be relevant, authentic, and based on a strong idea. A music promo is that test in a single room.
Results
- Turned a studio day into a promo film plus social clips, without a second unit.
- Gave D'Shay content that showed the journey, not just a cover still.
- Set the Forse Media music template: authentic, relevant, cut to travel.
