"Listen In with ellen cherry" is a live interview and performance webcast that I host and produce from my home, bringing the best of Baltimore's music scene to the world's stage. Successfully taping two seasons worth of local talent, I strive to dig into the music deeply and thoughtfully and to create an atmosphere for Baltimore based creators to showcase their work that will be viewed both live, as it's happening and will be shared on the internet for all to experience.I created the idea of the show, as well as oversee all aspects of its production, including show running, overseeing technical aspects of the production, managing all promotion and administrative duties for the show, including booking, scheduling. I also edit the video upon completion and handle the uploading and posting of completed videos to the web and promotion of them.
