The latest in a series of seminars I’ve arranged through my work with bands at The Depot Artspace is being held on November 28th at the Masonic Tavern in Devonport. This time we’re focusing on funding your latest release and DIY options for funding your music career.
The Depot Artspace presents a one day seminar aimed at independent musicians who want to learn more about funding their next musical project. The morning session will feature presenters from NZ On Air (Emily Upston), Creative New Zealand (Gretchen La Roche) and the New Zealand Music Commission (Alan Holt) who will outline their funding policies. This will be a rare opportunity to "demystify" the funding process and gain an insight in to the support and advice offered by 3 of the major music funding agencies in New Zealand.
The afternoon session will consist of a panel discussion focusing on "DIY funding options" and "music as a career" with discussion topics including "how to fund your first release?"; "how to approach a sponsor?"; "how you can have a long term career as a musician?"; "do I really need a record label?".
The panel members are key local industry figures and artists including Chris Chetland (Kog transmissions), Mark Kneebone (IMNZ, Isaac promotions, Tardus music) and Rebecca Caughey (Funktion music, manager Shapeshifter and Ladi6).
