Guys, they just found my cat dead after an airplane crash. On another note, I'm so glad that you're here. I'm glad I got your attention. My name is Darren. I'm the CEO of Flights Insights Media here in Abilene, Texas. Wanted to kind of take you guys through a little bit of what a week looks what a week in the life looks like here at Flights Inside Media. So I'm in the Howdy Studio actually right now. So here we produce podcasts, we produce YouTube videos just like this one. And so check out more if you're interested in the services, go to flightsinsidemedia.com. Anyways, a week in the life kind of looks like this. So Monday, right off the bat, we got a podcast with good old Slick Willys. We're starting a podcast called the Howdy Podcast here in the studio, kind of to promote the business and promote our services, promote the space. On that same day, we headed out to a real estate shoot over in Merkel, Texas, one of our favorite realtors. Basically, we walk around the front, inside, the back of the house. We take pictures, we do 3 exposure levels, typical HDR style. And then we merge them together and create a beautiful HDR image for our realtors. So along with the photos, we actually do videography too. We do video tours and drone footage, that kind of thing. Uh, we're going to be doing 3D tours soon, so keep an eye out for that. Next up, Tuesday morning, we started the day off with some good headshots for our friends down at the convention center here in Abilene. I think there was about 11 or 12 of them. We lined up and got some professional headshots for them. They're looking crisp and clean. Later that afternoon, after editing the photos from the previous shoot of real estate and the portraits, we got into our second episode of the Howdy Podcast with Carly Cooper. So we got the privilege and honor of filming with her and kind of highlighting what she does. If you want to check out that episode, check out the Howdy Podcast, link in the description. You don't want to miss that because we have actually a flarp-off, and if you've never heard of a flarp-off, you need to go check it out. Our goal is to be sponsored So Flarp, if you're listening, I want a sponsor. After our podcast, we went down and actually filmed a little promo video for her upcoming birthday party. Um, it's her second birthday party as a business, so that was fun. We got to collaborate on some ideas in that and film that right here in downtown, which is super awesome. Wednesday, back on the grind of editing all the photos and videos we've done over the past couple days. We try to have a super fast turnaround time so our clients stay happy and want to continue working with us. We also took some time to reset the studio because every podcast and show is different. We had to clean up, we had to rearrange furniture, rewire microphones. We basically have to do this before every single shoot. In between these shoots and editing sessions, we're always posting on social media for our own brand along with our clients' brands. So this includes Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, whatever it is. We can shoot it, we produce it, and we'll post it for these clients. Now we get to Thursday, the second half of the week. We're back in the studio actually filming another podcast for another one of our good friends, um, Kelly Mann. So normally these podcasts last around about an hour long, and we'll cut up clips for our members to post on Instagram, TikTok, all of that. So it's kind of like a one-stop shop. They come, they sit down, talk, leave. And once they leave, within 24 hours they'll receive a fully edited copy along with about 8 to 10 reels that they can be posting. Friday, now here in the Howdy Studio, we're actually filming another podcast. Surprise. The editing that goes into all of this stuff is extremely time-consuming, and I am super thankful for all the clients who have trusted us so far. We've only been here for about 2 months and we're upstairs in building downtown Abilene. So it's really cool. You can kind of see behind me the brick. There's a bunch of windows in this room, so people can also rent it out for photography or doing their own videos with their own equipment. We really saw, like, a need for high-quality content, and people, especially in 2024, that is a huge lead generator for businesses and brands. And Abilene doesn't really have anything like this. And so I was like, you know what, I'm just gonna take a leap of faith and let's freaking do this thing. So like I said, it's been 2 months so far and the support from the community has been amazing, and I'm so thankful to be in Abilene doing this with you guys. We're not actually just limited to Abilene, we service all of West Texas. Um, if you're wanting to come and use the studio, uh, we have all the professional cameras, all the microphones, all the lights. You can just book online, book a shoot, come in, and whatever you're wanting to do, whether to do a podcast— we have a content creation package where you can come in and we actually film you and give you a bunch of content for the next 2 to 3 weeks or even month. So again, that's on the website. Go check it out, book a shoot, um, if you're interested. If you live out of state, if you live out of town, if you don't live here in Abilene, feel free to reach out, like DM me, send me an email, call me, whatever. Saturday we are back at it filming another podcast for the Howdy Podcast because hashtag content creators. We have to be putting out stuff constantly, especially with our new show, the Howdy Podcast. We're putting out one a week. And so we're getting people in and out in hour, hour and a half long segments. We're getting them ready to be posted for the next, we're about 5 episodes out right now. So stay tuned for that. I had my buddy Levi come and we talked about content creation, social media, how you can market with it and how it can definitely help your business grow. We do a lot of sports photography as well, just event photography, sports photography, whatever it is with the camera we can do. And so here's Mike doing a little bit of editing for some sports photography gigs he's been doing recently. And then once we finish those projects, we come back to the studio, edit it all and publish it and send it to the clients. So that pretty much wraps it up, guys, for a week in Fly Sensei Media's life. This is the kind of work we do. We do films, photos, graphic design, like anything with a camera we can do. Probably way more in depth than I ever planned on going to be, but it's really good. I hope this kind of gives you some insight as to what we do, what we can offer. If you want to come and work with us, like feel free to reach out, leave a comment, leave a DM. All right guys, thank you so much for watching and I'll see you in the next one. Peace!
