2024: The Year of Burn Bright Productions

2023 was the best year Burn Bright Productions has ever had. For context, I officially started my business in January of 2020 (what a rough year to start a business, am I right?). For obvious reasons, I only filmed 1 wedding and had a couple other small projects the entire year. Every year since then, my business has grown a little bit at a time, but 2023 was my best year by far. I filmed 7 weddings, a music video, 3 band promo videos (2 of which will be coming very soon), produced 2 podcasts, made videos for an author, and so much more. I'm very proud of everything that I have accomplished last year, but this year will be even better!
This year, I want to film at least 10 weddings (I've already been booked for 6!), 2 music videos, 3 band promo videos (2 are currently in the editing process so I'm hoping to work with one more new band this year, as well as working again with the bands I made videos for last year), grow my social media following by posting more reels/shorts/tik toks on a regular basis, figure out how to sell stock footage as passive income, be more consistent with this blog (I wrote maybe 3 blog posts last year and that is not okay), and FINALLY make a new demo reel because the last one I made is from 2021 so it's severely outdated.
The long term goal for me is to turn Burn Bright Productions from my part time job to my full time job. 2023 proved to me that I can make this a reality one day, and the steps I'm making in 2024 will help me get there. Thank you to everyone who supported me this past year! I hope you stick around to see what I make in 2024!
It's awesome to see how much Burn Bright Productions grew from filming just one wedding in 2020 to seven in 2023. Hitting the goal of 10 weddings this year while also editing those band promo videos sounds like a huge step toward making this your full-time job. For anyone planning similar video projects, a tool like grid maker can help visualize the production schedule.
It’s really inspiring reading about how you started with just one wedding back in 2020, and now look at the growth—ZEnhancer was a great read on that journey. Hitting 10 weddings this year seems totally doable with your current bookings
Your growth story in popemote is impressive, going from one wedding in 2020 to seven last year. It's cool to see you aiming even higher for 2024 with those 10 weddings already booked.
I appreciate how well-balanced the interface is. It’s visually appealing without being overly complicated, and finding information feels very natural.
Spent some time checking out the features, and the overall presentation is surprisingly impressive. It feels modern, responsive, and very easy to navigate.
