Phone Consultation
There are many ways to get ideas and input from me! If I can’t see the show “live” at a rehearsal or performance, you might consider sending me a recording of the show to view at home. You can mail a DVD or videotape, or even send me a link to view the show online. I can watch the show, jot down some reactions and ideas, and then we can talk on the phone about any suggestions or ideas I might have. Having a “fresh pair of eyes” to see the show can often give you some valuable input from a fresh perspective, seeing some things you might be missing. Solve some show problems or get a few new ideas that might make all the difference in the success of your season!

Winter Guard & Indoor Percussion Line Consultation
Get an experienced outside opinion as you are creating or completing your Winter production. Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes can see an easy solution to a transition or can help maximize an effect.

Creative Consulting
I can share my twenty years experience creating and teaching marching shows with your band. Some areas where I might be of value:

·Show Design—I can help with creative ideas as you are putting your show together, from show concepts to music choices. Create a unique show that will make your band memorable and more fun for your students.

·Maximize General Effect—After the show has been written or taught, I can suggest ways to “max out” the product you have to work with—from major re-writes to subtle additions. Sometimes a snazzier horns down or slight change in guard staging can really bring a show to life!

·Solve drill or music problems—-I can help you fix or re-write drill or music problems in your existing show. Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes and ears can see the solution to a problem that you are missing when you “in the middle of it.”

·Guard Utilization—-Often the easiest fix to a show (and greatest oversight) is guard staging or effect. I can help make equipment changes work more smoothly or suggest changes in staging to improve transitions or effects.
