Commissions
Original scores are fully composed and produced in-house by Aleyna Neivandt-Brown featuring her signature styles of vocal harmonies, flutes, guitars, and mixed media for a compelling accompaniment to your creative vision of dance, film, and more...
Track production starts at $200 per minute of music for dance scores and concert music. Film score rates are based on the total amount of music required after a director+composer spotting session and may take into account the complexity and needs for hiring studio musicians to realize the score. A quote is provided following the spotting session including any anticipated costs beyond the $200/minute base rate.
Stem Packages
Want to enhance your existing project with a special treatment of unique instrumentation to take your beat, song, or score to the next level? Aleyna provides multiple levels of stem packages of flutes, vocals, and/or piano, that can be easily dragged and dropped right back into your DAW session to take your project to the next level.
Flute Stem Package $200* includes 3-4 drop-in-ready audio files of custom flute melodies, harmonies, flourishes, and FX.
Vocal Stem Package $200* includes 3-4 drop-in-ready audio files of custom vocal tags, melodies, top-lining, harmonies, and risers.
Flute + Vocals Stem Package $300* includes both of the above packages.
*Price based on tracks of 4 min. or less
Orchestration
A more comprehensive version of the stem packages above, Aleyna can compose and produce additional instrumentation to enhance your track—from piano to strings to horns to choirs—all remotely composed, recorded, and delivered in a folder of stems ready to import directly into your session.
Pricing follows the commissioning rate of $200 per minute of music. Additional fees apply for contracting session musicians and booking outside studio time for large groups (as needed), but you'd be surprised what Aleyna can do "in-the-box!"
Audio Engineering
Whether you're working with Red Pin Productions from conception, or joining us midway through your production cycle, Aleyna is here for all your audio engineering needs including recording, mixing, and mastering.
Recording services are available to local Dallas-Fort Worth clients only at affiliated studios including Crystal Clear Sound and cost $110/hour (studio fees included).
Mixing and Mastering services are available to clients worldwide and are done at Aleyna's home studio, eliminating expensive studio overhead and keeping rates low! Starting at $75/hour.
​
Producing
Have a sketch for a song but don't know how to bring it to life? Let Aleyna produce your music in collaboration with your vision. She'll handle the production of the track (be that electronic, acoustic, or in-between), hire the players, engineer the sessions, keep you on track, mix & master, and deliver a professional release-ready product you can be proud of.
Track production from a basic sketch of lyrics and/or chords entails a similar amount of composition as an original score, plus the engineering services of producing a track from scratch. Thus, the base rate for embarking on a new track requires a consultation to discuss and agree upon the vision for the track, a downpayment of $750 and a signed contract with a publishing and distribution agreement.
Once the demo is produced, up to two revisions are included. (Severe changes from the initial vision may require scrapping and starting over with additional production fees.) Once the track is approved, Aleyna can engineer the artist's contributions (vocal and/or instrumental).
Once the track is fully recorded to mutual satisfaction, Mixing & Mastering is $250. ​
Album Art
Graphic design services to bring a visual representation of your music to life in the form of a single, EP, or album cover. Aleyna utilizes professional design software to provide modern, custom artwork to industry standard image specifications to make sure your release looks as good as it sounds.
Base rate for a cover art design utilizing text and graphics only, OR a professional photo provided by the artist is $125. Price includes up to 3 initial options and 1 revision on the selected option.
Red Pin Productions can facilitate a photoshoot with affiliated photographers in your area to bring your vision to life. Photographers booked independently.
Publishing
As a commission for Aleyna's composition, production, or label services, your music will be released under the publishing arm of Red Pin Productions, Red Pin Publishing. According to Performing Rights Organizations (like ASCAP, BMI, etc.) compositions are registered with a pre-designated split: 50% writer, 50% publisher. This publisher share would not otherwise be earned by the songwriter unless they set up their own publishing company. Red Pin Productions is able to keep initial production costs low in exchange for maintaining equity in the form of the publishing split for music created and released with the expertise of Aleyna. All the while, you get to keep your writer's share and own your master recording.
Aleyna Neivandt-Brown is a registered composer + author with ASCAP, her IPI #1298325126.
Red Pin Publishing is a registered publisher with ASCAP, IPI #375724632.
Distribution
​As a client of Red Pin Productions for an original score or track production, the release details outlined in your contract include distribution to all major streaming and purchasing platforms, worldwide. Aleyna will create (or log in to an existing) distro account on your behalf to release your music and walk you through the steps to setup/update your songwriter profiles on a P.R.O., the M.L.C., and SoundExchange. You will have full access to your accounts and will earn your royalties directly.
