Branson's Student Video Story
Branson has always taken pride in its commitment to showcasing homegrown talent, and our newest student marketing video is a perfect example When it came time to create a video highlighting the unique performance opportunities available to student groups in Branson, we didn't have to look far. We partnered with rising local artist Jacob Hughes, whose song "Let Go" provided the soundtrack.
To bring the project to life, we collaborated with the Branson High School Jazz Band under the direction of Daniel Jarrett. The students not only arranged and recorded a custom instrumental version of "Let Go," but ako starred in the video itself. Check out the video here and see more of the story behind bringing this project to life below!
