SHOOT IT YOURSELF - NEW MUSIC-VIDEO-WORKSHOP FOR BERLIN BASED MUSICIANS
26.6.-29.6.2018 + 28.8.-30.8.2018

Music videos have become a very important facet of the music industry and a common tool for artist promotion. But how do they work? And how can you create interesting content on a modest budget? As digital filming becomes a more user-friendly and affordable option, it is essential for up and coming bands and new artists to gain filmmaking skills.

In the last twenty years, Stephanie von Beauvais has created music promos and shot both commercials and documentaries with a wide range of budgets including artists like the Beatsteaks, Materia, Tocotronic, Turbostaat and many more. Now for the third time she offers an intensive Workshop on both the theoretical and practical aspects of shooting your own video.

The workshop takes place in collaboration with BIMM Institute Berlin, Musicpool Berlin and is funded by Musicboard Berlin GmbH. It requires no attendance fee. Catering, travel- or accommodation expenses are not included. Participants are selected by a defined jury only. The jury’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into. Application via e-mail only.

You may participate due to a general interest of the topic or because you are responsible for a actual project.
Indeed, every participant is invited to work on his/her own video – either it has been already shot or it is in process of planning. For the shooting of their own video, the workshop even offers a financial aid of 300€ each, to 4 bands within the participants, who will be selected by the jury only.

APPLICATION - via e-mail only, by may 21rst, 2018 to: bewerbung [at] shootityourself-berlin.de

"Three Cities: International Commission" performing in Berlin

musicpool intern — Thu, 19 Apr 2018 14:11:54 +0000

What happens when three musicians from different backgrounds get together and collaborate?

"Three Cities" is a new international commission that links Music Pool Berlin (Berlin) with Le Fil (Saint-Étienne) and Brighter Sound (Manchester). The project creates a unique opportunity for independent musicians to extend their network in the music industry and create new original music.

On the first edition of "Three Cities", musicians Martha Rose (Berlin), Pailette (St. Etienne) and Shunya (Manchester) have come up with new jointly created compositions via a three steps process: jamming together in Manchester, recording in St. Etienne, and performing in Berlin.

On March 15th 2018, the trio had the chance to present the product of their joint effort, together with a glimpse of their own solo work, at the Music Pool Berlin "Community Evening" held at Hangar 49 in Berlin.

Prior to the performance, the three protagonists of "Three Cities" had the chance to discuss with other fellow musicians their experiences with international collaborations, and share their impressions on collaborative projects, exchanges or residency programmes in different contexts. During the panel, Martha Rose, Pailette and Shunya were joined by electronic musicians, DJs and cultural activists Gebrüder Teichmann (aka Andi und Hannes Teichmann), Berlin based indie multi-instrumentalist Johanna Amelie, and Allie ( aka Florian Boss).

Shot at Hangar 49, Berlin.

Thursday, 06.08. Expert consulting music funding in Germany

Eileen Möller — Thu, 30 Jul 2015 10:02:23 +0000

Initiative Musik, Hauptstadtkulturfonds, Musicboard etc. -
There are many possibilities for Funding for projects, Tours, Production for Musicians etc.. But exactly is funded? What amount? and what requirements must I fulfill? In this Consulting session, you will be able to ask our funding expert Katja Hermes about your project idea and perhaps what funding body fits best.
Questioning it’s “fundability"? And see where you can make changes to better the application and bring it one step further towards getting the funding you need.
We recommend that to all those who already have concrete ideas about what kind of project they want funded, to bring this with you to the consulting session. If you have general questions about funding possibilities then we recommend our workshop Music Funding in Germany this coming June also with Katja Hermes from Sound Diplomacy.
