Client Project - Meeting with Lenroy and Rich

Chase and I set up a meeting with Lenroy at a Cafe/ Bar. We went there and he was with his business partner Rich. We came out of the meeting with the following plans:

• That he is doing a podcast for the evening post at the rescue rooms on the 2nd December and that we should try and sort out recording it if possible.
• We also came up with some ideas of what to show during the documentary: What each member of the band is doing now, a performance video in the studio and how he made his new CD in his living room.
• To promote the company and the diverse talents and artists
• We talked about doing the DVD/ CD package and they thought of using the Live performance sound track as the CD.
• Lenroy also said that they were going to Manchester to do a gig on Monday Nov 2nd and were having a rehearsal on Monday 26th Oct and that we should come and film that.

We also went through the agreement form with them.
