Totty Studio of Vocal & Piano Artistry

I got involved with the Totty Studio of Vocal & Piano Artistry in 2023. I have known founder and owner, Tamara Wise Totty, since the late 90’s! I even had the honor of filming her wedding back in 2014.

Tamara is wealth of creativity and musical talent and when she connected with me a couple of years ago to help her capture her upcoming event I was honored.

The studio held a Showcase that several local High School students and graduated individuals participated in, demonstrating the work they’ve accomplished with the Totty Studio. Tamara asked if I could film the entire event and deliver the full footage to her to share with Studio students.

I delivered a clip of the full event, as well as breakdown clips of each performer that Tamara could share with those individuals. I also created a recap of the event for use on her website. View this video embedded here.

The recap included some highlights from the Showcase as well as a list of the Studio’s services. These services include vocal and piano training, music directing and music theory.

In 2024 Tamara asked me back to capture similar elements from 2023 of the next class of artists performing for their friends and family at Showcase 2024.

This year the Studio added a new Vocal/Piano Teacher to their ranks, Ian Black. I’ve known Ian since 2015 when he began on staff at Eagle Church. Since then, he has moved on, performing all over the country, including locally with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. Working with Ian was certainly a bonus to helping out the Studio.

It continues to be an honor to help out the Totty Studio of Vocal & Piano Artistry and I wish Tamara and Ian the best with the Studio!
