Mark
Berry ...President, The Attack Group of Companies, music engineer
and producer
The
Attack Group of Companies started six years ago in a small
one-room apartment in Toronto, Ontario as an independent
record label. It is now one of the rising stars in supplying
across-the-board entertainment content in music, film and
television sectors around the world. At the helm is Mark
S. Berry, an engineer/producer with 35 Gold and Platinum
records to his credit. Mark shares his music and career-related
experiences in an effort to help others explore their creative
interests, and to inspire them to pursue their dreams and
achieve their goals in the path of life that they choose.
Mark truly has an inside view of the entertainment business
from the majors to the independents as he deals with all
of them in music, film and television on a daily basis.
As
an entrepreneur, he has guided his own career from humble
beginnings in Brooklyn NY, to London, England, where he
apprenticed under Sir George Martin (The Beatles) as
an assistant engineer. Nine years at Vanguard Records taught
him the inside ropes of the record business and while learning
from each of his experiences he has made choices that have
allowed him to pursue his dreams and achieve his goals.
Mark has worked with some of the biggest names in the music
business including David Bowie, Paul McCartney, Burton
Cummings and Duran Duran.
Mark
Berry is a success story, both professionally and personally.
As he continues to propel his career forward through the
Attack Group, he has developed strategies that keep him
on a path of continued success while maintaining his creative
artistic integrity and delivering quality content to the
world’s largest media buyers.
Always
opinionated and controversial, Mark is able to stay on course,
recognize and capitalize on existing opportunities, constantly
creating new opportunities for his artists and clients,
serve with a social conscience, and market his career in
a focused and proactive fashion. In his interactive lecture/seminar,
he teaches students how to apply these same principals to
their own endeavors, enabling them to pursue (if they desire)
a successful musical career, with great entrepreneurial
flair, while also being a successful creative artist and
positive influence in the NEW music and film business. Most
people enter business looking for “the” path to
achieve their dreams and goals. This program
intertwines the pursuit of dreams, achievement of goals,
and the integration of arts into today's NEW music business
and social environment.
