So youre interested in hosting your own music video dance party? There are some things you should look for when deciding who should DJ/VJ your music video dance party. Not all VJs are alike nor can they put on the same style music video dance party as a professional VJ can do for you.

A music video dance party requires a video screen to fit the location. A Professional VG should have both smaller 5-7 video screens and larger 10-20 video screens. When they are performing at a video dance party, professional VJs typically do what is called rear projection, where the LCD projector for the music video dance party is placed behind the video screen. If you have a smaller room with limited space for your music video dance party, they would suggest that you place the video projector in the corner of the room and have the video screen for the music video dance party about 12-15 out from that corner.

The key to a successful music video dance party is the LCD projector. Some VJs will attempt to use cheap $1,000 projectors for your music video dance party with only 700-1,400 lumens (brightness). The room must be completely black in order for people to see this style projector. There are cheaper LCD projectors with higher outputs in the 2,000-3,000 lumen range, but the picture quality is shoddy. Professional VJs use only professional grade $4,000 - 15,000 LCD 2,500 Lumen or better projectors for their music video dance parties. Why? Whats the use in having a music video dance party if the picture quality is poor or you cant see it?

The same goes for the sound system at your music video dance party professional VJs typically setup a concert level sound system for all of their music video dance parties (unless very small number of guests or more intimate setting). The floor will shake and the pulse of the music will resonate throughout you as you enjoy the music video dance party. It will be like going to a night club. You will be submerged in sound, light and video. They should offer club style lighting to bring the night club atmosphere to your venue. Your music video dance party will be the most amazing thing youve ever experienced in entertainment.

A Professional VJ should have 3,000 or more music videos on DVD (and updated at least monthly). They should have music to satisfy both young and young at heart at your next music video dance party. Professional VJs do not utilize low resolution computer based music videos for your music video dance party like many other low-end companies offer. The resolution of MPG compressed video v. a DVD is clearly obvious when you blow up the image to 10 or more in size. Know what you are getting and ask question/get it in writing. A professional VJ should cost you between $1,000 and $2,000 depending on the size and options of your music video dance party.
