Elysani J - Live Performance
Telemundo commissioned a live session for a career feature on Elysani j, a Puerto Rican artist with millions of streams. The catch: I had 48 hours total—one day for production, one day for post. I shot at Rooted Studios in Hackensack.
Elysanij – "Mátame" (Live at Rooted Studios)
Producer, Videographer & Editor
The Artist:
Elysanij is a Puerto Rican powerhouse known for her "La Dulce y Ruda" (Sweet and Rough) persona, blending Urban Pop, Bachata, and R&B. With millions of global streams and collaborations with Latin legends like Ñengo Flow, she's a leading voice in contemporary Latin music.
The Challenge:
Commissioned with 24-hour notice for a Telemundo broadcast deadline, I had to produce, film, and deliver a broadcast-quality live session within 48 hours total—24 hours for production, 24 hours for post.
My Approach:
Working at industry speed, I executed a streamlined single-day shoot at Rooted Studios (Hackensack, NJ), capturing the raw intensity of her performance while maintaining broadcast standards. I prioritized efficient multi-cam coverage and dynamic lighting to ensure maximum visual impact within tight time constraints, then delivered a polished edit that served as the centerpiece for Telemundo's career feature on Elysanij.
Impact:
The video successfully bridged raw studio energy with professional broadcast quality, earning 42K+ views on YouTube and meeting the network's strict deadline without compromising production value.
