Interview with Brainwave Entrainment Expert, Morry Zelcovitch – Part 1

February 26, 2020 by Jodi Krangle

Morry Zelcovitch has had a lot of challenges in his life including depression and addiction. In his search for something to help him with his difficulties, he came across something called “binauaral beats” and that led him into the brainwave entrainment field (a term he coined himself).  Essentially, he’s programming his brain to operate in a healthier way, through the use of sound. Exploring this continues to be his life’s work. But like any self-improvement option, it works (or doesn’t work) for each person differently.  We talk a lot about this in our interview.

I found it truly fascinating to discuss how sound – or vibration interpreted by our eardrums – may be able to heal us from the inside out.

In this first part of our interview, we discussed:

  • His background in “brainwave entrainment” (how he trained himself)
  • His search to find a way to live
  • How he started researching the science of brain chemistry
  • He came across something that might work for him – something that would modify his neural chemistry
  • How music can heal through its “steady pulse” and pattern
  • Using a stimulus – sound and light – to influence his brainwaves so that he could feel better without drugs
  • Unfortunately, binauaral beats didn’t work for him
  • How he needed to create his own methodology
  • His opinion about some flawed science – the reason he wasn’t really helped by binauaral beats
  • How binauaral beats are supposed to work
  • The differences (and names) of various brainwave states
  • How our brains are designed to work
  • Why brainwave entrainment is so important

You can find out more about Morry’s approach to “brainwave entrainment” at www.themorrymethod.com .

Interview With Creative Director, Monte Bowden – Part 2

February 19, 2020 by Jodi Krangle

Here’s the second part of my interview with Creative Director, Monte Bowden   We talked about his philosophies on directing voice talent and trusting his editors, discovering a brand “voice”, consistency in branding, and his thoughts on creating a deeper connection with those who his clients hope to serve.

We also spoke about things like:

  • How he gives direction to the voice talent he works with, helping them find the “why”
  • Consistency in branding – both in the tone of that brand and in the voice talent used
  • How other ads have used INconsistency to create interest and engagement
  • Authenticity and how it plays a part in advertising and fundraising
  • How movie trailers seem to be getting more compelling
  • His love of work that’s “cinematic”
  • What he’s working on right now
  • How a client of his is helping people to understand transparency in healthcare and leading in that field
  • Working with a children’s hospital and telling their caring stories
  • How social media might play a role in hiring voice talent – and whether or not it should
  • Monte actually interviews ME for a little bit. 😉 (He asks some excellent questions!)

Interview With Creative Director, Monte Bowden – Part 1

February 12, 2020 by Jodi Krangle

Monte Bowden knows a thing or two about advertising and marketing. He studied Communications in college and then worked in a TV News station for years, rising in the ranks from intern to news director.  He also served as an adjunct professor in communications at his alma-mater.  Monte joined AMPERAGE as a communications strategist, leading PR efforts for agency clients. And with his well-rounded background in storytelling, video production and management, Monte has worked in a variety of roles there.  He currently serves as a Creative Director – and is someone I’ve had the absolute pleasure of working with for many years now.

In the first part of our conversation, we spoke about a lot of different things, such as:

  • How he developed his love of sound, starting with radio – and how it influenced the college he chose
  • How radio led to working at a TV news station, learning a lot about video, writing, producing and managing
  • How he started working with Amperage (hint: it had to do with a chance meeting in a grocery store!)
  • The differences and similarities between working in TV News and working at an Ad Agency
  • The use of wireless mics in the newsroom – and how that transformed the storytelling
  • How storytelling factors in to his work now
  • Emotional decision making
  • How sound might best be used in fundraising and in advertising to draw someone in
  • How everything works together – sound effects, good scripts and SILENCE
  • Where music fits in (and how it should be thought of early in the process rather than later!)
  • A case study about how he and his team came up with an ad for a hospital
  • How technology would change the development of a commercial like this
  • The story behind the NBC three note “audio branded” tone
  • How sound can be described in writing – and how much more effective that can make it
  • Designing sound for advertising

Interview With Hip Hop Culture Coach, Josuel Rogers – Part 2

February 5, 2020 by Jodi Krangle

This is the second part of my discussion with Josuël Rogers, a coach who uses music – specifically Hip Hop – to help his students and clients develop self-awareness and confidence.  We talked about how music influences our moods (making a playlist for yourself can really help!), how personal sound can be and the power of words (among other things). You can find him at Hip Hop Culture Coaching (https://www.hiphopculturecoaching.com), if you’d like to learn more about the services he offers and the information he has to share.

In the second part of our conversation, we talked about:

  • Foley in film and the making of weather sounds
  • How your mind associates a type of sound with the weather
  • How the “filter” of a microphone changes sound
  • Hearing your own voice from a third-person’s perspective
  • Randomness and how that influences what we hear
  • How the same song can represent different moods for different people
  • How personal sound is
  • How we fixate on sounds we’re more familiar with (a drummer focuses on the drums in music, for instance)
  • The best kept secret about making playlists to help us experience the world in the way we want to
  • Repetition is key – words matter (“impossible” puts a block on things immediately, etc.)
  • Everything around you is a word
  • How a hockey coach learned to better coach his team through Neuro Linguistic Programming
  • Your brain not registering negatives
  • What he’s working on right now – coaching
  • More information about his podcast
  • Where his podcast can be found: podcast.hiphopculturecoaching.com – and on Apple, Spotify, etc.

You can find more information on Josuël by locating him on LinkedIn at https://www.linkedin.com/in/josuelrogers/, on Instagram and Facebook as JosuelRogers & HipHopCultureCoaching, and you can find out about his own podcast by looking up The HipHop Minded Professional on any podcasting app you have available.
