"This is an awesome opportunity for both us and musicians across the country," says ECG Principal and Director, Jason Sirotin. "Over the past few years, we've had the pleasure of working with some amazing artists and producing some incredible music videos. Now, after learning a ton of lessons and fine-tuning our style, we feel like it's the perfect time to take our experience and excitement for music videos and pay it forward a bit."
