An experience so much more than just a workshop. 

 

September 29, 2012

LANCASTER, P.A—Dr. Jennifer Jester, Assistant Professor and Director of Music Business and Technology at Millersville University recently returned from a weeklong “Inspire and Develop Artist Seminar” in Miami, FL where she was one of 12 participants chosen out of a hundred entrants to take part in  Participants were mentored throughout the week and had the opportunity to “be developed” through workshops, performances, songwriting, recording, and other coaching experiences. The seminar is also the base for a reality TV show that will be shopped to major TV networks. “This is not American Idol, it is a boot camp star-machine,” explains Willy Perez-Feria, Director of IDA. “We want to find 21st century artists that have the potential to be successful.”

 

 Jennifer was mentored by four Grammy-wining music industry giants including Mark Hudson, Rudy Perez, David Frangioni, and Jon Secada.  As part of this workshop, Jennifer performed in Miami on two separate occasions at the Van Dyke Cafe with the other participants in the popular spot in South Beach. In addition to the performance mentoring, she co-wrote a song, "Woke Up Wild," with Rudy Perez and Willy Perez-Feria. This work is due to be released on iTunes in the upcoming months as a compilation CD with work created by all 12 participants.
