Week 6 BOC: Market Analysis -Customers
My company fills the gaping hole of
“all in one” style media production in the Greater Cleveland market. I will draw customers from the Greater
Cleveland area which has a population of approximately 2,077,240 according to
the 2010 Census. I choose the Greater Cleveland area because I was raised there
I am extremely familiar with the area and I have many potential connections to
clientele as well as space to handle business which is already taken care of.
Due to my distance from my target market I could not physically hold a poll but
I have been in discussions with numerous potential clients via telephone who
specifically asked me to provide the host of services I offer. Age, income, and
status have no bearing on my business or the services I provide. All I will
need is a subject matter and someone who has an idea or vision they want to
become tangible. I can produce letters of intent from the following : Brittany
Brown, Marilyn Braxton, Veronica Render, Peace Missionary Baptist Church,
Warrensville Heights High School ,Kim Gibson, Debra Arnold, St. Phillips
Church. I am unable to obtain facts to back up my analysis other than those
already presented in this report.

Week 7 Photo Challenge: Screen Play
Happy place is the debut screen play from Grover Cleveland.
Produced in its entirety by Up N Up Media LLC. This story follows Jerry as he
deals with hard times after graduation in his hometown of Des Moines Iowa. Jerry
attended the University of Iowa and was a star baseball player who got injured
in his last game as a senior. He was the stereotypical star athlete that had
everything given to him on a silver platter as a result he has to rely on his
work ethic and seemingly useless bachelor degree in Liberal Arts. The economy
is weak as well as Jerry’s connections to even a part time job. Jerry finds solace
in his faith and his fast pitch softball league filled with seasoned recently
retired gentlemen from various backgrounds, who refer to themselves as The Skippers.
Throughout his time with The Skippers Jerry learns what it really takes to be a
man, not age, nor skill, but decisions. He learns the Value of being faithful, both in
relationships and responsibilities. The value of family and a great team. He
even gets stronger in his faith. All goes well until a vicious tornado rips
through the community taking the lives of the team who had a practice. Jerry
was spared in the disaster because he had a job interview set up by the captain
of the team. Ultimately Jerry finds relief from his grief in what’s left of the
field in which they played on in which he deemed his happy place. Jerry gets
the job as a lead of an urban redevelopment project and vows to pass on the knowledge
and teachings of his fallen friends The Skippers.

Week 7 EOC: Optimal Resume
In my opinion optimal resume is a great tool if you have not
started to build your resume. Unfortunately for those who have done the
painstaking work to get the resume in tip top shape optimal resume is not of
much use. That being said I would encourage everyone who is struggling with
formatting and content to enter into the resume to try optimal resume. Not only
is it fairly simple, but it gives you the opportunity to have it screened by
professionals who know what employers are looking for in the resume of a
potential candidate.

Week 5 EOC: Progress towards my four professionalcontacts and progress on networking
I only have one of my four business cards. I plan on reaching out to the agent of a singing group (Lou Ragland's Ink Spots) here in town for a possible connection with their road manager and accountant. As well as Attending The Dam Short Film Festival this weekend to make more connections. I am sure to find a lot of film makers who need good sound and are willing to help out.

Week 4 EOC: Executive Summary
To be content is to be futile ALWAYS go higher.That is the mantra of Up N Up. It all started in 2005 with a group of individuals who wanted to always show progression. From that came personal and professional trials,tribulations, success, failure, and a few college degrees.The creator of the idea (Grover Cleveland) saw more than a group of friends trying to stand out he saw an honest creative living. Grover (who graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Audio Production from The Art Institute of Las Vegas) went back to his home town and got connected with the educated creatives he trusted the most, his friends. Michael Turner earned his degree in Communications and Sociology from Bowling Green University. Tyree Johnson earned his Degree in Psychology from Mount Union College. ChyAnne Gibson earned her Degrees in Spanish and French from Bowling Green University. Willie Rudolph earned his degree in Information Technology from Cleveland State University, Charles Thomas served six years in the United States Marine Core. This young, hardworking, educated team is dedicated to producing top quality media for the masses.
That being said Grover is the Speer head in all of this. His other partners will serve as part time employees lending there expertise to a project when deemed necessary.
Up N Up Media will be a pre-production/production/post production company focusing on audio, video and photography. We focus on the extremely important planing stage and actual production of the project. When hired we want to take the project from its concept and infancy stage through to its finished state. After a client leaves my care they will be ready to have their work shipped off to a duplicator or distributor and still have the money to pay them!
