mtvJAMMED is a new performance series with a twist. . .We take a band to the streets of a city with one goal in mind: to build a crowd of people during one day of impromptu performances At the end of that day fans and the city's bystanders are treated to a final full-on performance by the artist/ band.
With a multitude of cameras - some of them hidden - mtvJAMMED is a roving production. Vans carry the band and crew to various locations. Once there, the band pulls off "some kind" of performance bit, letting the kids know that they are on the move and to "follow along" for a final performance payoff.
The stylistic treatment of mtvJAMMED supports the premise of the show. . .It's not slick by any means. . .mtvJAMMED is "run and gun" in its' presentation. . . Often, the television screen is laid out in overlapping split, tri and quad screens. . .Walkie-Talkie chatter - recorded at the scene - fills and narrates many of the day's events, letting the viewer into the "behind-the-scenes" drama as it unfolds. . .In fact, the production team is the supporting cast of mtvJAMMED.
With momentum that builds throughout each act, mtvJAMMED has a built in story arch that keeps the viewer attached and interested. . . As the performances intensify and the crowd builds, not only the city's inhabitants but also those viewing from their homes will be left feeling. . . JAMMED.
I read that, and now think we're definitely going to get stuff from the flatbed.
