Canadian Music Week and Speed Control- GBP Yukon Photographer

As we've posted about many times before, we here at GBP love music.  Not only that,  we love working with artists to help them create images that represent their music and their style...images that in one glance, can give you a feel for what that artist is all about.

Over the past year in particular, we've started to do a lot more work within the Yukon music industry, in both still photography and videos. It's the creative/conceptual aspect to these shoots that we love the most as it becomes a brand new challenge with each artist to help create the artistic direction needed in order to really showcase their sound through imagery. 

It's because of this love of the music industry that we decided to attend the Music Summit as part of Canadian Music Week this March in Toronto! We are SO stoked to be able to be attending as part of the Yukon contingent that's heading down to network and learn from some of the best and brightest in the North American music industry.  (Huge thank you to both the Yukon Film and Sound Commission and the Department of Economic Development for your support in this opportunity)  From marketing directors to sound technicians, Music Week is filled with breakout sessions, workshops and keynotes that help provide music industry professionals with the tools and knowledge needed to advance in the field. 

We are so pumped for this opportunity, and can't wait to bring back the knowledge we gain into our future projects both locally and across Canada!  

SO in honour of the fact that we're only a month out from the trip, we wanted to share a few of our latest shots with local band Speed Control! 

And let me tell you...this may have taken the record for the loudest shoot our studio has had to date!
