25.01.2022 Music Pool Community Afternoon Public Funding: Residencies & Projects (PartI)

Kirsten Grebasch — Tue, 11 Jan 2022 14:03:50 +0000

In preparation of the next public funding rounds in the spring, we organize a Q&A session with Musicboard Berlin and Initiative Musik for you to ask all your questions on submitting an application and on the funding programmes. There will be a brief introduction to the funding programmes at the beginning. The better part of the session we aim to dedicate to your questions. So that we can collectively understand and learn about the funding programmes and processes together, led by your specific needs. So many questions you may have are not peculiar to you individually, but are shared with many others. Apart from questions on project development, budget and project description we also aim to find out about what are frequent mistakes in proposals, and what the funders would recommend based on their experience in project accounting and collaboration with the juries. In discussing the different funding programmes together, you can also get an idea which programme might fit best to your needs and ideas.

We will talk about the funding programmes:
Stipendien & Residenzen (Musicboard)
Karrieresprungbrett, Pop im Kiez & Festivalförderung (Musicboard)
Künstler:innenförderung (Initiative Musik)

Questions can be asked in German and English. We aim to adapt to the language needs of the group in the session.

In the session, we will have Maureen Noe for the programme Stipendien & Residenzen and Jana Sylvester for the programme Karrieresprungbrett, Pop im Kiez & Festivalförderung of Musicboard, and Robert Schulz of Initiative Musik.

No one said life as a musician would be easy - especially not if you want to earn a living doing it. The days of being fully provided for by a lucrative record deal are over, or rather, only very few people get to enjoy that these days. Most musicians therefore prepare for an independent career - many do so consciously because they prefer to keep control over their artistic creativity. However, to make self-employment work, there are many things you should be prepared for: From financial security to insurance, good planning and organisation and overall a set of soft skills that can be useful to you in your professional work. This workshop provides the basics you need to plan your career professionally in a practical and clear way.

WORKSHOP - An Introduction to Blockchain Architecture and Music: The Holy Grail to Solve It All?

With Imogen Heap releasing "Tiny Human" in 2015 as the first song ever on a Blockchain platform, the technology's hype finally reached the music industry as well.

Due to its links to Bitcoin many people remain sceptical regarding Blockchain. To others, it's nothing less than the solution for almost any problem that the music industry currently has to face - it's expected to revolutionise music.

But what exactly is it? Who is going to benefit from it? Does it really have the power to improve the situation of creatives? Or is it rather just another way to disadvantage composers and musicians?

The workshop provides an introduction to Blockchain. In order to enable participants to make up their mind about this rather complex topic, essentials will be explained in relation to examples from music. As a part of the workshop, pros and cons as well as open questions will be discussed.

Readings:
Jeremy Silver: "Blockchain or the Chaingang? Challenges, opportunities and hype: the music industry and blockchain technologies" (PDF, 66 p.)

Target audience

musicians & composers, labels, publishers, as well companies/organisations from creative industries.

Documentation:

After the workshop, all participants will receive a documentation incl. slides.

THIS WORKSHOP WILL BE HELD IN GERMAN!

Dieser Workshop beleuchtet eine der wichtigsten Fragen, die sich professionelle Musiker_innen früher oder später stellen:

Wo bleibt Geld liegen? Wie verarbeitet ein Label oder Musikverlag seine Einkünfte und rechnet mit mir als Künstler ab? Welche Fehlerquellen gibt es im System, bis sich mein Portemonnaie füllt?

Wie Label intern abrechnen und wo ich achtsam sein muss:

Vertragsmanagement im Label
Physische Verkaufsdaten beim Label, wie sehen die aus? Was macht das Label damit?
Digital Verkaufsdaten beim Label, wie sehen die aus? Was macht das Label damit?
Von Retouren-Rücklagen, Vorschüssen, Verrechenbaren Kosten und Querverrechenbaren Verträgen
Wie sehen meine Künstler-Lizenzabrechnungen aus und worauf muss ich achten?
