UP LIGHTING FROM BETTER MUSIC SERVICES
Up lighting (sometimes called ambient or perimeter lighting) highlights the venue as you would the stage in a play. It alters the suroundings by adding color and texture to the walls, ceilings, columns, or (as shown in the video) an outside landscape. This lighting design was created for the Marquez/Shen wedding reception in a sycamore grove at The Malibu Nature Preserve, (a truly magnificent setting) and captured on video by Dmitry Bershadskiy of White Gorilla Media. Be it subtle or dramatic, up lighting can add that extra magic to any event.



Can you have a fantastic bat mitzval party at a pizza parlor? Yes you can if it is Pitfire Pizza on Westwood Blvd. in WLA. Ella Sinfield had her party there on Saturday March 6 with Joshua & me (Mick) from Better Music Services as her DJ’s. Besides the great eats, Ella and her friends sang karaoke, got tattoos, wrapped themselves up like mummies and sang and danced to “under my umbrella, ella ella ella” as the rain came down outside.





Hey, this is J Crawford. I was the DJ for the 2009 Debutante Ball sponsored by the La Canada Thursday Club at the Omni Hotel on December 27. A Debutante Ball is a grand affair and these beautiful young ladies and their elegant escorts fully lived up to the occasion. Denise Greenawalt orchestrated the entire event and made it appear effortless. Congratulations to everyone. I’ll see you next year!
