(Ronkonkoma, N.Y.)–Entertainment and event planning guru Ed Jacobs is accentuating the “e” in entertainment through the establishment of Studioe, a state-of-the-art, versatile showcase, rehearsal and special events facility geared toward the needs of a variety of entertainment and corporate professionals.
Under the hands-on guidance of its new Manager and Director, popular music, entertainment and events industry veteran, Jimmy “CL” Newson, the new studio, based in Ronkonkoma, NY, which is now in full operation, supports musician and dance troupe rehearsals as well as a unique setting for corporate meetings. It can also be used for professional commercial/infomercial/television/movie productions and music video and photography shoots as well as the hosting of intimate events, such as record release parties.
The many features available at the 1,000 square foot facility include a deluxe stage area with hi-tech lighting, white and green screens for CGI, dressing and waiting rooms, a kitchenette and a modern lounge area. It is also outfitted with wooden floors and mirrored walls, which allows musicians and dancers to practice stage presence.
“Through our introduction of Studioe, we are providing all types of entertainment and corporate industry professionals with a quality environment that can be tailored to their personal needs while offering hands-on, individualized attention,” says Studioe Founder and President Ed Jacobs.
Jacobs adds, “I am also excited to have someone like ‘CL’ on our team. I know his nearly 20 year stint in the entertainment and events industries will be an invaluable asset to our operation.”
“CL” shares Jacob’s enthusiasm in this new venture. “Throughout my tenure in the entertainment and event planning arena, I have always strived to offer clients the utmost excellence in service while recognizing that people specialize in various areas and have different needs. Ed shares this goal so teaming with him was a no-brainer as he designed Studioe with that in mind, which allows us to deliver customized services with a personalized touch.”
The strategic partnership between Jacobs and CL allow for adhering to multiple needs. Jacobs’ strong business sense as well as his entertainment and events expertise coupled with CL’s veteran status and aptitude within the music, video and television industries, offers clients the best of both worlds.
CL has been a part of projects with such prestigious record labels as Sony Music, Atlantic Records and an array of industry organizations including National Academy of Recording Arts and Science, TV Japan, Gibson Guitar and Music Under New York. In addition, he has led a number of entertainment projects and events at leading institutions including NYIT, UMASS, William Paterson University, Pace University, St. Johns University and local New York high schools and middle schools.
CL is currently working on several projects involving Internet TV, Internet radio, music marketing and promotions and live music performances, with a focus on the independent music community, which will be a huge benefit to musicians rehearsing at Studioe.
Starting his career in high school at the age of 16, Jacobs entered the event industry from the basement of his parents’ home. After studying business in college, Jacobs mastered the art of running an enterprise and combined that business knowledge with his passion for music, developing an interactive DJ experience, setting a standard that has become popular today. He eventually broadened his repertoire, expanding into special events and production, delivering all of the entertainment facets that families and corporations can wish for to make their events extra special and unique.
