DJ GIG LOG: MC (Master of Ceremony) vs Party Motivator | Club Cannon Co2 Gun (Sweet 16)

[@thirtyfivealive]

Man being an MC is such an adrenaline rush!! So much pressure to be quick with your flow. I love being on the Mic and DJing because knowing the mixes and drops of my music crate, allows me to give the right energy at the right time. I've for sure been in gigs where i totally messed up the flow with jumping on the mic to soon and not being smooth with my words. But it still doesn't scare me away from MCing. If you are into MCing, i say get the practice in because you can tap into a totally different area in your DJ business where now you can market your voice. It just opens you up for so many opportunities. And in our business there are sooooooooo many different DJ's, so you have to figure out a way to stand out. And MCing is a very powerful way.

Drake out here doing Photography, DOPE! Congrants on representing ADJ bro

[@bubzz800]

I typically let a close family member or friend of the host do the mcing, it just makes the entire crowd more happy to see someone talking who they know compared to some random guy. But in terms of party motivating, its always my job

[@DJLoStax]

when i first started wedding i would get the sweaty palms and the shakes when i talked on the mic so i did start hiring out my MC work but after a few years i was able to break the feeling and do my own MC work. Not only has it made me a better entertainers but its also allowed me to make more money instead of paying an MC. you can tell from gig logs i dont have an issue getting on the dance floor and joining the fun. check out gig logs 6 and 7 haha.

[@LeonEdwards1976]

Exactly, as long as your straight talking, the client knows what you can and will or will not do.

[@LeonEdwards1976]

Lil Peep on the playlist - Rest in Peace Gus. Benz Truck is an awesome song.

[@djjrodnyc]

Love all ur vlogs bro. Greatly produced.

[@cnsentertainment8524]

Barr did a great video for us thank you barr

[@localguy602]

Where can i get that bubble popping beat you always use

[@djlokey2820]

I'm a passive MC too! In Tucson AZ where I'm at people aren't used to a lot of mic work and have heard feedback that it gets annoying after a while. but it does depend on the crowd. I've DJed for crowds that expected me to be on the mic and the party rocked! It's a crowd reading thing. some like it some don't!

[@meaner4eva]

Hey Barr great video.

[@julianteran1503]

Dope video barr

[@djpalos81]

When I first start a wedding I get sick of my stomach but then I kind of get better as the crowd lessens up lol ... I am starting to get better tho , I just started djing 2 years ago ... I use to be very shy back in school talking in front of the class so i didn't know what i was going to do when i first started djing. Lol

[@DjMixstyles]

What song is that at the beginning

[@anthuerta]

Wow she hella didn’t look like she wasn’t having fun at all!!! Her parents paid a arm & leg for all that The Dj and you did a dope job of course

[@edgarh252]

Some people don't want a sweet 16 but they're parents want them to.

[@cnsentertainment8524]

Anthony Huerta .. very shy girl .. other than that party was poppin

[@djceelos5427]

Songs request for Quince's and Sweet 16 always vary from City to City, and year to year. No matter how often you think as a DJ you're update, kids will always hit with songs that you don't have or never heard of. Always a challenge. Also, once they start requesting songs and come at you at a rapid pace that just kills your mixing flow.

[@TheAssassin1978]

DJ CeeLos especially now with streaming services, kids listen to very obscure artists. Also genres are becoming more saturated with sub genres, where as 10, 15 yrs ago you had a handful of artists who where churning out the hits

[@dionnefrye3671]

Love video barr you should get a co2 gun

[@claudiosantini7226]

Dj Barr what video software do you use to make your video Vlogs, would iMovie work on a iMac, just asking.

[@edilemir]

I don’t MC, and I look for someone else to make small announcements. I usually interact with the crowd with the music. So far I haven’t had a gig fail because I don’t MC. But I know it’ll be a good incentive to be able to MC, I’m just too shy 🤣🤣

[@jcoto2202]

I have trouble with the mic can you tell us what you do when speaking

[@-matt-4501]

what is the same of the song that drops at 8:42

[@joelewis]

It's like one of the first really popular big room tracks. If you googled "BIG ROOM HOUSE" and whatever the earliest date you find you will find that track. I'll do it right now actually for you..

[@BEpicEvents]

I do both and am very comfortable as an MC. I do not dance either but use my voice and prompts to get people hyped but less is always more when it comes to getting on the mic.

[@edselljr]

Emcee. Word of MC. Master of Ceremonies.

[@georgeellis6603]

What's the name of the song playing at 10.24

[@angelodeejaycancun9996]

you are soo right every party is different, hey i do mc and dj at the same time, been as entertainer for resorts for 22 years, but now just weddings receptions at resorts in cancun and riviera maya. good video bro. saludos

[@LifeOfSpecs]

I personally have no problem talking on the mic I feel like it gets you more of a connection with the crowd.

[@isaiahruiz6173]

I’ve been struggling with MCing ever since I started DJing, it’s wierd bc I’m not personal a shy person but getting on the mic is so much harder for me for some reason

[@djk2290]

I feel you man I just DJ’d a father daughter dance and I’m not a dancer type just not me but the mic part I’ll do it once I feel everything is popping right, the set up is dope as 🦆.

[@wowdats_.jamalpr061]

Hey my man i really like what you are doing, i like watching your DJ GIG log, i watched all of them already, you are very talented. DJ and host at the same isn't easy, you always keep the flow moving. But i have only one tip for you. Use INFLECTION, you used too much the same words in every EVENT., and your modulation of intonation are the same. Once again you are very talented.. Berry

[@djrentertainment782]

DJR actually requires our DJs to get formal training on Emcee IToastmasters is our go-to). Usually once they have the "certification" they actually feel much more comfortable doing it.

[@PROIMPACT]

Great Video DJ Barr, I do MC with no problem, my definition for MC is (party Motivator) shot out to all my fellow DJs from Chicago...

[@nelsonmercado100]

I have a huge issue with talking on the mic. Also people today want a mc to do everything for them including singing dancing praying etc. for this reason I don’t do gigs for people I don’t know.

[@MrEdwardrios]

I think you got the stamina and voice for an MC. I'm not a DJ. But I am an MC announcing the court for wuinceañeras, weddings. It usually involves a live band though. But it's dope all the way....

[@cnybmxcrew]

MC myself, but I don't act a fool. If the crowd is hype, I'll throw I some "jump jumps" and "hands up". I just started doing crowd control tracks with my middle schools and they love it. If it's a kids party, I bring my daughter to get on the floor with the kids. LOL

[@jordangregersen1201]

Hey man love your work... who’s Linda? ;-)

[@flashanddancedj]

Depending upon the event an MC is a different thing. Keep in mind these are just my opions... For a wedding an MC is the person who helps the venue and coordinator makes sure all scheduled events of the day take place i.e. cake cutting, garter or intros... An MC or Hype Man gets out in the crowd or in front of the DJ and uses his body language and voice to get people going. However there are certain times it's not needed. A Party Man is a type of MC that teaches Line Dances and dances with guests along with doing the hype work... A Bar or Night Club MC stays near the booth however in visual sight of the parties and hypes up the crowd... Just my 2 cents... Great job on your vids

[@mattruglio3745]

How were the rcf speakers I’m thinking of getting them

[@cnsentertainment8524]

DJ Mattietastic I bought these there amazing they really bump . Just ask barr

[@bsandm95]

Some emcee rules. Write it down. Plan at home. Learn something about the client. Say the company's name and say it correctly. Don't say bride and groom - use their names. Get away from cliche like "you having a good time?". Do not make it about you. Speak clearly. Just do it! Don't be afraid! But Don't say too much. Say it twice if they are important announcements. Don't forget to make announcements if instructed to do so - like "last call". Always say "tip your bartenders" to keep your job. Introduce yourself. Great stuff Barr...

[@djbowzer1308]

A DJ that does MC can make anywhere from $100-$450 extra. If that doesn’t motivate you to become an MC, then idk what will. And when you add a “Carnaval” Package, you have to be interactive with the crowd, only way it’ll make them comfortable with you as their DJ.

[@JoseHernandez-bk8pk]

How them kinta lights attached to the speaker stands?

[@cnsentertainment8524]

Jose Hernandez there amazing we use them all the time fills the room with lights and laser

[@JoseHernandez-bk8pk]

CNS ENTERTAINMENT how did u attach them to the poles tho? I have a set of kinta fx But I don't know how to attach them

[@cnsentertainment8524]

Jose Hernandez u get a adj plastic clamp. And on the pole stick like a wired thru the holes on the stand and it will hang on that

[@deejayjg]

I have a rough time talking over the Mic

[@dj5am2012]

At first I hated talking on the mic. But now it’s something I can do fairly easily. I do not dance with the crowd though. Strictly talking on the mic for announcements and pumping up the crowd during dancing

[@DJmarshmello21]

So cool👍👍🤟🤟😎😎

[@stevestylezradio]

I love talking and djing the whole thing

[@djilyaz]

CO2 cannon looks like a fire extinguisher...lol.

[@effenkat3893]

thats because co2 is used as a fire ex alot

[@DjDRam1]

I MC all my own parties, it make a big difference in making the party more fun, but u don't want to talk to much, that is something you have to learn, with more experience

[@ethyspy13]

I use my mic but hardly use it as I’m not confident using it

[@MJRCoolDude]

For me, the idea of MCing is more intimidating and unnerving than actually doing it. Once I’m out there it’s fine

[@lionelrodriguez6410]

I MCee most of my gigs however it's always money maker to have someone to who knows how to do both. I do have a business partner that will not touch the mic. This becomes a mood setter on my part and requires for me to redirect and focus my attention on how to pronouns, drops, and presentation with what we are trying to create and build a momentum for the guests. Mcee-ing is defiantly additional work but extremely important!. I'm always working on it thou! Always something new to learn.

[@djilyaz]

I worked at The Mansion not too long ago, but the room was huge! That room doesn't look like it.

[@cnsentertainment8524]

djilyaz that's the smaller room ranch style

[@djilyaz]

CNS ENTERTAINMENT yeah, they have a few rooms, that place used to be called The Evergreen or something, way back in the day.

[@rjpimprov]

My clients specifically want me to not talk during dance sets. Which, for better or worse, forces you to get good at mixing to keep audience interest

[@djeffeny]

Es sir, I have some problems

[@Fleuryyy]

When your parents try to get you friends.

[@djobieone]

i suck as a mc lol...... for some ppl its easy for some its hard....

[@DJMARAUDER1]

I'm a passive dj but Im not a hype man either. You got a helluva nitch at intros & pumping up the crowd. I just gotta tweak my mic game. Too many cut throats in upstate NY

[@djsilence22]

I try to mc but I DJ more but I’m trying to learn more about being a better mc

[@djbwren3704]

Any client I talk to I always suggest getting an MC that knows them, for weddings anyway. Otherwise I’m MC for everything. I make it clear that I am not a hype man, I will make announcements but that’s it. I will try and get the crowd engaged but I promise nothing.

[@coestar001]

Thanks for that fog quick blast tip .. I have 2 Jett pros catching dust 500 each gotta make some$ out them bi%#*es ! 👌🏼

[@stevemcc1842]

I don't talk to much on the mic, I let my music do the talking. I talk enough, but not too much. I think if your on the mic too much, people will start to tune you out or your making the party about yourself. I hate it when I'm at the club or a guest at a wedding and the DJ talks over the vocals or starts singing the song.

[@djflashback8343]

Same - I keep it minimal!

[@specialtyentertainmentdj]

Ok first off I do both (dj/mc) now, but it can be distracting. One day would like to try hiring a sep. MC. Just to give a better show. I'm not sold on Canon. I would never use it, Maybe confetti but not smoke. Facade set-up is getting old, but still nicer then anything ive ever setup. Teen Playlists always smh, example: Pop, group dance, dirty song, dirtier song, then Disney. You can never tell what will work. One time I had a full list of dirty, dirty rap and requests at party were 80s pop that what they danced to. Thanks Barr see you in Vegas

[@raynardflanagan8744]

I am a in the crowd mc. I love to interact. I will make announcements but Im not a big talker. I will but not my first preference. I love to dance n sing the songs on yhe mic.

[@MrGerdo88]

No problem for me!

[@psycho_blaze]

Not really I have no problem talking on a mic, You just gotta go for it and be enthusiastic and energetic as I found your mood as a MC can really affect the feel of a party or event

[@dj_pollo1727]

Playlist songs please

[@joelewis]

It's next to impossible to know the playlist of tracks for an event he did not DJ.

[@MILEHIGH_ANIME_LLC]

Doesnt seem difficult at all this party seems like it went by like a breeze just a bunch of kids trying to have a good time. Honestly you just have to be an outgoing like-able person and not overthink things too much. LOOK PROFESSIONAL TOO, IT DOESNT HURT TO WEAR A SUITE LOL.

[@spiner111333]

I'm just a Fat Man but not a Fat Man Scoop... LOL

[@bobbybell2853]

I don’t mess with playlist. I’m a Dj not a jukebox

[@liukang120]

sir can you give me scrip intro party time im a dj in club sir pls give me scrip party time intro

[@markscott4297]

I don't mc but I love to play music at party's

[@jayharrison9617]

Don't tell me what to PLAY! I know what I'm Doin'! LOL! #RespectTheDJ I always feel like I have to educate clients about the differences between an MC and a Party Motivator. In my opinion an MC is just an announcer. Someone who informs a crowd. For example, introducing people and explaining what's about to happen next. A Party Motivator is an Entertainer that is an MC, Hype Man, Dancer, Dance Instructor, Game Show Host and a Comedian. Yes I said Comedian, clients will hand me a script of something "funny" they wrote and expect me to make it work. That's a lot of skills rolled into one performer. A lot of clients expect their DJ or MC to wear most of these hats and I think it's very unrealistic for one person to do all night long. I prefer to be the DJ/MC/Hype Man/Game Show Host/Comedian and bring a DJ Assistant that knows how to mix two tracks together and a Dancer.

[@alexmartinez4717]

I hate talking on the mic... I do it because I have to, but rarely do I get comfortable enough to say more than's needed... Now I'm all for making announcements: "Dinner will be served in just a few minutes" "Will the owner of the red Jett a please move your car so the caterer can get out" lol

[@elliott7268]

[@nairdlopezvazquez5799]

que buenas fiestas amigo saludos desde cancun mexico

[@BenjaminKeenePhotography]

All of our DJ's are trained both as true Master of Ceremonies as well as Interactive Emcee's (Party Motivators). Our policy is that if you can't DJ and grab the mic and rock a crowd at the same time, there's no room for you on the team. That way, we arn't stuck in the situation of sending out a DJ to a party that can't grab the mic and bring the party from 0 to 100 in seconds. If you give 200%, you can expect at least 100% back from your crowd.

[@Blazelaserengraving]
