Random Ideas for music videos

Here are my thoughts for music videos:

  • I'm a material girl, no rythme or reason for anything I'm doing
  • I like big cats, and I do not lie, but this I would deny
  • Yo Yo Yo I need to make some doe, So pony up the Benjamin's, So I can take my medicine
  • I need the stretchy the stretch stretchy pants
  • Grand Magus of the Ferengi

Lady Gaga leveraging her success into other areas

Lady Gaga leverage her success as a entertainer to own a string of dance studio's.  For example, do you know the largest owner of land outside of the US government in the US?  It's Mcdonalds.  The UFC is starting it's own franchise of martial arts schools.  Lady Gaga could do something similiar.

For instance, Lady Gaga could have a franchise called "Gaga's."  She could license her intellectual property such as her songs and dance routines to dance school owners in exchange for a stake in their business for example Creative Motion School of Dance.  Perhaps the routines might need to be toned down a bit for more conservate crowds.  Also she could put on workshops at her there schools.  Let's face it, Lady Gaga putting on a dance workshop at a Dance school could get alot of publicity. 

It would also be good public relations since they could run articles in newspapers about her putting on a workshop at a local school.  Also she could use it to help her find performers for her shows.  Another advantage is she could get passive income from the studio's.  That would give her more financial independance to do as she pleases.  That way if she wanted to take time off, she would have money coming in from her businesses.

Yin/Yang music

Once bought a cd that had was yin music.  The purpose was to help people through music who were in a yang deminated environment.  Perhaps Lady Gaga could incorporate this into her music.  Though her music has a nice beat to it.

What I think Lady Gaga needs to do is develop her own sound.  What do I mean about this?  Well, for one thing, other people keep getting her mixed up with other people.  Sure, it gave her a boost but does she want to continue to be confuse her with other people?

For example she could do space opera.  She could use her success in the area of music to expand into other areas such as producing movies.  One thing I always thought would be unique would be incorporate more traditional instructments into pop music.  Personally, I really like the "Big Band sound."  When you have a whole orchestra playing a piece of music there is alot more richness to it.

Another thing is people will find the money to escape from their problems for a little while.  So even if the economy isn't doing so well, she may still have an audience.  Though perhaps focus on less expensive shows in not so good economic times.

Gaga could turn her intellectual property into an entire franchise

One thing is that Lady Gaga could turn her productions into an entire franchise.  For instance, she could build theaters at popular Tourist attractions, such as Las Vegas, Branson, Wisconsin Dells, etc.  Then have other performers perform there.  She could have less knows performers perform at her theaters.

This way she would gain passive income.  Then also when she wanted to put on a show in an area, she could put it on in her facility.  For example, if she built a start with one in the Wisconsin Dells.  Then build a bigger one in Branson.  Then perhaps a larger one in Las Vegas.  Maybe even walking distance from a hotel.

She could also market her Theaters to campgrounds.  For instance selling tickets in bulk to campgrounds at a discount price.  She could also do reciprocal marketing with the campgrounds.

Also she could have someone else manager her theaters.  She could incorporate the theater's as an Arizonia corporation then in exchange for giving them the rights to her name, and to use her songs get an controlling interest.   Perhaps have an initial offering to her friends and family.  Also perhaps a portion of the theaters proceeds could go to causes she supports perhaps the International Crane Foundation or the Wisconsin Big Cat Rescue.   

Making more money from shows then a job?

At the wilderness there was a guy, who made more money doing shows then working a job.  He worked because he needed 401k income to pay child support.  Well, he could have incorporated his business and have his business pay him 401k income.  But that's a different story.

You see he wanted to start a sound business with me.  I was interested in it, but he didn't give me enough information to make up a business plan.  Also there was a little problem of financing the debt until the business got on a solid financial footing. 

However, being a sound tech is still an interesting idea.  Computers have always been a fascination of mine.  Being in band for seven years and taking private flute lesson was interesting.  There is a school in Madison that teaches this.  However, I would prefer to find something online as driving to madison can be expensive.

Lady Gaga lifewave patch distributor?

It may seem wacky, but Lady Gaga could make alot of money by selling Lifewave Patches.  For example, she could offer them at her shows.  Have other people sign up as under her to be incharge of selling them.  Then she would be getting a passive income stream.  She could be an additional income center from her shows. 

Also she is quite well known.  So if she starts using them then other people are going to follow suit.  They are going to be like, "What's that?"  "Where can I get those?" 

Also if you give a person a fish, they eat for a day.  If you teach a person to fish they eat for a lifetime.  Having people under her doing this for her would help teach them to fish.  Then she could help others.

The House of Gaga

Celine Deon has her own theater in Las Vegas.  Perhaps Lady Gaga could do the same.  When she isn't using it should could let other artists perform in it.  For example, she could have younger artists be "openers".  She could even have an "amateurs" night. 

For example, it could be located in Branson, Missouri.  One thing is Branson is a Tourist town, so people come there often.  Then she would could use it too put on shows.  Also she could have a recording studio there to record her songs. 

Also she could have a practice stage.  So people could practice performing why a show is going on.  That way, a performer could be getting ready back stage while someone else was performing or do dress rehearsals or practice.

Tickets could be sold in bulk to major hotels in the area.  I know the wilderness includes passes to Tommy Bartletts.  This would bring in some additional revenue.

One advantage could be there could be housing for her and her performers at The House of Gaga.  That way they wouldn't have to leave the theater to go to a hotel room.  It would be more "secure" that way.  Also she could add secret passages, and room to it, so she could move around at her leisure.  That way if someone did try and break in they would be unfamiliar with the layout.  Something else is it would be more secure for her to stay in one spot, then move around all the time.   

Another thing is she could have people donate items to charities such as non-perishable food, aluminum cans, aluminum tabs and hard plastic bottles, scrap clothing, old computer equipment, etc.  Then charities could be in charge of collecting these items.  This would be good publicity for her. 

When she did want to go on Tour, she could get a barge to perform on.  Then she could stay in her ship and not have to leave it unless she wanted to.  That way, it would also be much safer for her.  She could have certain security measures installed on the ship as well, for example, bullet proof rudder house, and electrical shock decking for those who were inclined towards violence as an example.

Lady Gaga as Cleopatria

I think it would make an interesting video if Lady Gaga did a music video as Cleopatria.  Then she could have a guy dressed as Mark Anothony making love to her while she is singing.  Of course his face wouldn't be seen.

Lady Gaga the Dominatrix

One thing that would get alot of attention would be too go to a major awards dressed as a Dominatrix.  While the celebrites would be wearing there dresses, she would get alot of attention.  Of course it help if she had a leash with a man wearing a mask like a lion.  Then in the she could have a whip in the other (made out of fibers that wouldn't hurt the guy).  Then she could be like "Sit" "come" "up".  Everyone would be talking about it. 

Norse Mythology video

Greetings,

It would be interesting to see Odin in a music video.  Perhaps he could ride his horse in it.  For example, in Garyolyes they have an episode with it. 

Of course, a suitable likeness could be found.  However, names and faces would be changed to protect the innocent.  But I think it would be interesting to see a reference to him.

Perhaps a Gaga could dress up as a Valkyre.  Then yours truly could be a warrior.  I've heard a tale of a warrior that fell in love with one of Odin's Valkyre's.  Perhaps a music video based on it would be interesting.

video game music tribute

I thought this was interesting:

http://megabeardo.blogspot.com/p/download.html

Perhaps, Gaga could take music from video games and make a music video about it.  For example, Mario brothers tune is very catchy.  She could dress up like the Princess, and a guy could be dressed up like mario going through all these obstacles to reach her.

and of course the proverbial "Your princess is in another Castle."

Or how about Donky Kong.  For example, Gaga could dress up like one of the Kongs and go through a level.  Perhaps using wires to do the aerobatic stuff.

Or how about a Final Fantasy tribute.  Where she and a guy are like Cloud and his lover.  It might be interesting for her.

EDIT:  After seeing this I saw the following link:

concert pianist plays Ipad on stage

Perhaps this might be interesting for her shows.
http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-20003310-71.html

A concert Pianist has played an Ipad on stage.  Perhaps this might be good for Gaga.  She could incorporate it into her shows.

Highland video

One idea for a video could be to do a enactment of a scotish battle perhaps of William the Lionheart.  A bunch of men running around in kilts would be interesting.  For example, they could use Scotish weapons, and scotish fighting style.

Then Lady Gaga could do Scotish dances during the video.  Then they could flash in and out of the battle during the video while Lady Gaga was dancing.  She could be dancing while the battle goes on.

Chillin

I really like this song especially the lyrics about "everyone, everyone looking at me."   I think it's hilarious. 

Personally, I think certain celebrities do way to much like that.  Now it's like what are you good at?  Why are you famous?

I mean, there are certain celebrites that are celebrites because they party.  Really, you famous because you go to parties?  I'm not saying they don't work hard, but there is alot of people that aren't famous that work very hard too.

But is this something we should hold up?  Is it something we should honor?  For example, being a musician one has an ability. 

Hard work is profit

One thing is I like about Lady Gaga is that she is a hardworker.  For instance, she has been known to work fourteen hour days.  Hard work does get one places.

Perhaps, she has been trying to escape from the pain of her last relationship.  I know when I played the flute the best, was I was heart broken.  So I wonder if the same is with her.

There was a patient who came to see a doctor.  The patient said, "I've very sad."  The doctor replied, "Why don't you see this clown.  He's very funny I'm sure he will lift your spirits."  The patient said, " I am the that clown."  This is so often the case. 

Another thing is that while other celebrities are building there mansions she's working on building her business.  I think this is smart, very smart.  One needs a place to live.  A mansion on the other hand is an liability.  The overhead costs on could eat one alive. 

Sci-fi opera

Alot of Lady Gaga's music videos seem like science fiction.  For instance, "Bad Romance" had alot of science fiction elements in it.  Perhaps she should expand on this.  It could become her own style. 

For instance, a she could make a space opera like those westerns like Oklahoma, or Fiddler on the roof.  My dad said, "Marketing 101 differentuate yourself from your competition."  That would definately seperate herself from her competition.

As she could direct her these musicals.  Then her brand would expand to Movies.  Then she would have a movie production company.  For example, then she would have more intellectual property rights.

So she could keep filming for adding to her intellectual property.  Then she would get passive income.  Another thing she uses all her money into her shows.  So she could create companies that she would own a controlling share of to put on these shows.  For example, having a barge that she could do performances off of such as for Fourth of July concert.   

One thing I really like about Lady Gaga

What I really like about her is she didn't rely on "knowing someone who knew someone who knew someone."  She made her own way in the world.  So often people rely on other people those who have come before them.

I'm not saying one shouldn't follow in one's parents footsteps.  Nor am I saying, one shouldn't network.  But all too often things are about who you know rather then what you know.  You can't rely on other people what you must do. 

I'm not saying genetics aren't important but they aren't everything.  Hard work, and never giving up are more important.  One isn't guranteed anything in this life.  People die from going to there mailbox and being hit from airplane parts.  Better to truly live for ten minutes then live ten thousand years and not truly live.

Turning the Tables

Greetings,

One way Lady Gaga could turn the tables on the Paparrizi, is to follow them around the post there private details on an online site.  For example she could hire private investigators to check these people out.  What ghosts do THEY have in their closet?  What are they up?  What things are they doing wrong?

You know people say "The public has a right to know."  No they don't.  If one is a celebrity there actions are certainly in the spotlight.  People in the spotlight ought to be rolemodels.  For example, Lady Gaga could have collections for non-profits at her shows.  It would be good publicity for her and her brand.  But people dont' have the right to invade another persons privacy for money.  

Another thing she could do is have her own magazine, about Paparizi.  She could do the same thing they do to her.  Follow them around and report on what they are doing. 

What would really get alot of media attention

What would really get alot of media attention was if Lady Gaga had a boyfriend and no one knew who he was.  Perhaps, he could be in some of her video's but they could be edited to not to reveal his identity.  Then the media would be like "Who is she going out with?"  "Who is this guy?"  "Where did he come from?"

Look how much press coverage it gets when a celebrity get's married.  They media swarm the event.  It's on the news, in the papers, etc. 

Personally, I really only wear clothes for other people.  If I didn't have to wear clothes I wouldn't.  It would save alot of laundry and wear and tear on clothes.  So personally, I don't have a problem with nudity as other people do. 

Going to run away

One thing is Reedsburg doesn't have alot that I'm interested in anymore.  I've gotten my gotten my associate degree from MATC.  I can't get a bachelor degree from MATC.  I've gotten my blackbelt from Villari's.  Also there the job situations isn't that great either.  I don't own a home so I don't have that going for me either.  I really feel that Reedsburg is stiffling me.

Another thing in other areas it would be easier for me to find a job.  I could find a part-time job someplace else it would bring in extra income for me.  One reason for staying around was the services.  They took my utilities allowance away from me.  If they the other benifits why stay around?  I might as well go someplace else.

Let's face it, living with your parents after a certain age is no longer socially acceptable.  Quite frankly, I really dont' want to live with them again.  I want to prove that I can make it on my own.

So I've been looking into doing Americorps.  I've waiting to have a phone interview with them.  That would be something I could use my associates degree for. 

But I'm starting to think I should run away with Lady Gaga.  I could be of use to her, helping her with things for her shows.  Also doing things she doesn't have time for or being in places she can't go without being noticed.  I'm sure being a popstar it's harder to move through public areas.  Also I could help with technology stuff.   

Lady Gaga parody video of 800

One thing that would make a funny video would be if Lady Gaga made a Parody music video of 800.  For example, she could be the queen.  Then there could be a love scene in it.  Then it she could kill the guy in before all the men.  I think it would be in character for her.  Then the guy could throw a javelin at king Xerces.  Perhaps, someone who looks likes Jim Schulenburg could play Xerces.

Look, at how much Meet the Spartans made.  The video could take advantage of the popularity of 800.  I dont' know if it would be necessary to get licensing rights or not.  But it's something that would check out.  It might get alot views.

One thing is I dont' agree on all the issues with Lady Gaga.  But I don't really need to.  You know you look at who my friends are.  They are very left of the political stream.  I'm coming from a very right field and I don't think that is a bad thing.  I've definately become more of a moderate as time has gone on.

Personally, one thing that makes America great is we can have different ideas about how government should run and not be at each others throats.  We can have a peaceful election.  We don't solve it by shooting or killing each other like other places do.  But I'm reminded of something Glen Beck said, "Show me your friends, and show I'll show you your future."  Right now, my future is looking very left. 

What Lady Gaga needs

You know, often times when a celebrity marries who do they marry?  Another celebrity of course.  However, this isn't always for the best.  The thing is there needs to be one of them who is unseen.  I've heard it said two celebrities getting married is like two kids in a candy store.

What I think Lady Gaga needs is a tough as nails guy.  Someone who can go where she cannot.  Also, being a celebrity does make one a target for bad people.  So she needs a guy who can understand her, who can relate to her.

Most people won't be able to do this.  As they don't understand why you would do certain things.  For instance, why would you need to protect your privacy?  If your not doing anything wrong you shouldn't have to worry about it, right?  I used to think this way, however, do to certain life events that is no longer the case.

Well, there are good reasons for protecting one's privacy.  One's identity is there most precious possession.  Like I said before there are alot of bad people out there.  So one must ever vigilant for them.

Lady Gaga and RLSH video?

Lady Gaga is always seeking publicity, why not make a music video about the RLSH movement? That would surely get attention. I'm pretty much sure of it.

For example, you could have some dancers dressed up as heroes and stage a mock battle. Perhaps even have some Real Life Super Heroes in it. It would grab alot of attention. Like Lady Gaga beating up on a Rapist.

Or how about Lady Gaga doing charity work? That would surely get alot of attention. I might even raise alot of awareness about the issue as well.
