It won't be much longer until I pick the next show to program.  One of the issues I have been dealing with that has held me back from picking more shows to program is that the bids have been so low.  If the bids were reaching levels of $2000 or so, I would be able to pick shows at least once a month.  But, since the top bids are in the hundreds instead of the thousands, that means the loss I have to absorb is significant whenever I do one of the shows on this list.

Still, I want to keep this program alive and try to find a way to do more of the shows on this list.

What I am going to do for the next selection off this list is to send out an announcement when I am absolutely ready to start work on the project and have a week or so set aside to do the production.  At that point, I'll be ready to update this bid report quickly so that you will see your bids posted almost as soon as you make the bid for your song.  I will allow the bidding to continue until the bidding has slowed down considerably. (Probably a few days)  At that point, whatever song is at the top of the bid chart will be the one I will immediately start programming with a promise to have the production completed and released within two weeks after that.

If the bidding goes high, I will put more effort into the production.  If the final bid amount is very low, then, the production won't be as complex, but will still be something I will be proud of.  To show you the difference between a simple and a complex production, take a look at the production I did for MGMT's "Electric Feel".  That one is simple.  Then, take a look at the production I just released today for John Gold's song, "Skyscraper".  That one really raised the bar in terms of complexity, time spent and creative concepts attempted.  Both of those songs were choreographed ahead of fanbid projects because I was paid standard studio rates for the production.  The standard studio rates are not high.  At present, and for a limited time, I will accept projects for $500/minute of finished video and place those projects ahead of any fanbid projects.

If anyone who wishes to get a song programmed ahead of others wishes to apply the bid amounts towards a straightforward studio project at standard rates, I will be happy to accommodate you and move your song into immediate production with credit for your fanbid amount.  So, even if your song is not chosen as the next fanbid production, you
