DJ TIPS: Setting Up Cue Points - Wedding DJs: Ceremony and Formal Dances too!!

Let's talk CUE POINTS! Every DJ that makes videos has done one of these videos. I talk MOSTLY about how I set up cue points on every song I play, but I also go a little deeper with talking private event cue points, meaning for ceremonies and for introduction songs during reception. Hopefully this is useful for beginner DJs and veteran DJs alike, but at the end of the day come up with your own s...

It takes great audio to make great video. Sometimes you'll see a video and it just feels off, like the mouth and the audio aren't working together. It feels like a weird puppet show.

Check out this quick tutorial to learn the easiest way to line separate audio s...

DJ TIPS: Packing my SUV | TONS of GEAR!
Every video I ever posted from a wedding has been muted, playing only 15 seconds or less of each song, and no monetization I need to learn your secret
Hahah I wish I knew! I do balance the music and the outside sound as well, maybe that’s part of it??
Love this Kev!
First!
Damn nvm
This is great, but I only want the background. How do I remove Bobby?
😂😂
The amount full 360 videos I've had that I thought maybe uploading a long play of, now makes me want to.
EYEBALLS EYEBALLS EYEBALLS
I enjoyed the Video man. Has anyone ever told you that you sound like Dane Cook?
hahaha no but I don't hate that 😂 I love stand and when he was in his prime he was amazing! Appreciate that Marcus, thanks for saying whats up!!
DJHIKEVIN 🎧🎤 CHEERS 🍻 TO YOU , THIS IS AWESOME THE 360 VIDEO CAMERA 🎥 LOL !!
hahah thanks!! it surprised me when I posted it not gonna lie 😂
Good content, Kevin. People who don't dj never understand the pressure of playing the next song. Hope to meet you guys at Djxpo
broo!! We will be there! But ya man, people don't get it and there is no way to show them without pulling the curtain back!
keep doing this bro - you'll help a lot of people with this type of video.
My man 🙏🏼🫱🏽🫲🏼👊🏼
You need balls to upload a mix out of the middle of a set! Nice transitions. Maybe try some speed changes instead of playing the same tempo all time. A bit more of lighting would have caught the people even more. Nevertheless: Nice job.
Hahah it was definitely a little nerve wracking posting this. I spent a decent amount of time in the 120bpm but I did go down to 70s and then up to mid 80s at the end, but I am focusing more on tempo changes to create those peaks and valleys! Appreciate your comment ✌🏼
love this raw footage...... we need more of this on here... see the real behind the scenes; the building of the dancefloor and the different waves... love this idea!!!!!
GRIF MY DOOD! We do it all for the people!!
I disagree with introducing yourself and your team and the company. It’s not about you it’s about bride and groom. To introduce your whole company before the bridal party is a bit tacky
I appreciate your point of view on this, it is undoubtedly about the bride and groom. I take just the moment to introduce us as more of who we are and why we are here vs making it about us, but I see how it can come off that way
Know one of the clear distinctions between really skilled MC/hype and amateurs? Doing things in rhythm. You nailed it repeatedly, nice work my dude. The Red Solo Cup thing was nice. My go-to is "Sippy cups". lol OH! For "I'm Good" snag the version that has "freakin'". That dead air is an energy suck.
Broooo thank you!! You gave me goosebumps haha Definitely gonna look into that I’m good!

hahaaa its almost like twitch??
Hi DJHiKevin
Hi JTM71!
Don't tell anyone, but I just figured out that I could move the camera around halfway into the video. 😂
dudeeeee i posted it and I didn't even know 😂🙏
Ours is a senior cat but just as playful. He investigates every DJ bag and now I go to gigs with a lint roller because every speaker tote has a little bit of his fur on it
hahaha thats too funny! i guess its a good thing i have a black cat and all black cases 😂
Never get cute with "Clarity." Won't ever hit the same. Otherwise, nice job.
Thanks brother!
🎉🔥🔥🔥🔥🎉
you the man <3
OK I DID NOT KNOW IT WAS GOING TO BE FULL 360!!! My b lol I wish I didn't try to crop it now, but it kind of feels like you're just standing next to us! So welcome, thanks for hanging!
How long did this video take you to produce? From writing to posting? I think it's great to contribute to the community this way and I wouldn't mind trying
This was one of the longer ones, I start the writing about a week out so I hopefully remember things or come up with new things over that time. Then the real "storyboarding" of how it comes together, then the recording, then the editing, then the posting! so ya I'd say a week, maybe 10 days since as I'm finishing up one video I'm kind of starting the next one. Appreciate you recognizing, I can definitely put how I make videos as a future video for the channel if you'd be interested!
@@djhikevin What a guy! 100% we all appreciate your content and the community is behind you brother! Seems like 40 hours+ went in for sure!
This is great! I feel like we do some things similar...and I think you set some trends with this video, I'll be using that "forever dance" line. Shoulda trademarked it bro.
hahaha maybe😂I gotta have faith that people give credit where credit is due. APpreeciate the compliments and the comment 🙏
I'm glad you brought up the "dirty" or street versions of records. I pride myself on being the total opposite and being squeaky clean that can still mix/talk like it's a nightclub. Had a couple say...yeeeeeeeeeeeah we want the real deal, uncensored stuff. Gonna be a wild one.
DUDE THATS AWESOME!! Truly the curses aren't what makes the night fun, I just know the type of person I am, and I like to swear hahaha
@@djhikevin "Know thyself"... BTW I followed the both of you. Keep up the fine work! Teddi followed back...WYA LOL

Best thing that my assistant has ever done is being dependable and prompt!
Dependability is HUGE in the wedding world!
Thats really the biggest one haha if you don't show up you cant do anything else!
👏
whats up Javier! Glad to see ya!
all good info
Glad you think so, thanks Thunder!
Really digging this recap and vlog. The fact you guys met working weddings is so rad. You guys have a killer dynamic and I sure appreciate the dope content and effort to help the DJ community. Mad respect, Kev & Teddi 🚀🔥🙌❤️
Here for the people, baybieeeee! Appreciate you Casey 🙏
@@djhikevin My G <3
Shout out to Teddi for keeping that schedule and reminding the workaholics we need some couch potato time!
Duuuude foreal!!
❤❤❤ yes! We all do! Even Kevin has to yell at me to relax once in awhile lol
Hey Kevin and Teddi! I’m seeing some throwbacks get revived. The explicit lyrics trend I’m blaming on Spinelli, so now I have people come up and tell me how inappropriate it is for me to have that one word blasting as a Caucasian DJ. But I gotta take the heat for my couples, apparently this is just a new fight I have to fight.
I SWORE I wrote a response to this lol. IMO you are still entitled to your own comfort zone, but also like... its music. so the guest can chill. I have a super power of being an ass hole that loves to antagonize and "poke the bear" so I LOVE when people hate me, but it definitely helps in those moments when a guest thinks their opinion is more important than the people who hired you.
@@djhikevinI totally agree about guests who think they are owed too much! It’s a bit difficult to have a conversation about racism in America while I’m trying to work the dance floor. I’m usually like hey man, I’m just doing what I’m hired to do and let them interpret that as they wish.
I want an assistant to get my coffee and clean my gear
Clean?? We just buy new stuff
😂 if the price is right I’m sure you can have that 😜
I agree about the toasts! 1000% Also…toasts before dinner is my jam! More time to mix dinner crates 🤜🏼💥 more time on the dance floor. Talk about it with your couples, speaking only if they have 2 to 3 speakers.
Toasts before dinner is so much better. Someone tag all the midwest coordinators!
I too bring my girlfriend (or my brother) as assistants to my weddings. Unfortunately setting up and tearing down isn't something they enjoy helping on. Any tips on how to change that? 😅
Hmm Is there anything in particular they don’t like about it? Can always come up with a system if there are certain things they don’t particularly like setting up or tearing down. Like I’ll set up the speakers you start on the table, or you start unplugging and wrapping cables and I’ll start putting equipment away. Just work together and come u with the best move for everyone!
@@teddijoprice143 just everything 😂 But mostly lugging stuff around. Even on wheels
@@rupturedjyeahhh I feel like that is definitely no ones favorite! I know we take a foldable wagon to throw whatever we can in to make it easier and just always try to stack stuff to make the least amount of trips possible!
Heyyy thanks for the comment! That’s super tough, if I’ve ever had reluctant assistants (not teddi lol) I just get there extra early and set it all up myself. Then at least they can’t complain about the first half. Or compensate them for extra work, give them options. “If you want to make $250 then that is set up, event and tear down. That means getting there at x:xx and leaving once the car is packed. If you want to make $100 then you show up…. “ So on so forth. Hope that helps… Maybe teddi and I should do another q and an and go into this more!
Bravo Kev & Teddi
thx Kev n Teddi !!! appreciate yas
Thank you, and we appreciate you!
I've never MC'd a wedding before but I was asked to MC for a friends wedding this month. I really appreciate your tips and I will absolutely be stealing that "Forever Dance" line. That's gold! Thank you!
Hell ya glad you were able to get some nuggets! It’s all about commanding with kindness in my opinion. Let me know how it goes!
Awesome Video!!!
Much appreciated 🙏🏼
