DPR's crew
The DPR team members are excellent at their given specialties, but they cannot do everything required to record music and produce such high-quality videos themselves. Since the beginning, they needed to work with outside audio and visual professionals.
As the scope and ambition of their vision expanded, they would use their connections to find the right people to help achieve their goals. As a result, DPR has a go-to team of audio and visual professionals for their major projects.
They also bring in specialists when needed, such to learn and use a new skill or for the logistics needed to go on a world tour. However, once DPR works with someone, there's a good chance they'll work with them again.
