Entrepreneurship Workshop
Entrepreneurial One Day Workshop for Musicians on July 8, 2015
Flutes by the Sea Masterclass has an Add-on option, the Entrepreneurship Workshop for Musicians scheduled for July 8, 2015 from 10am to 4pm. Application Fee is $100 – all musicians welcome to attend. This is an “Add-on” Workshop. Fees are separate from the rest of Flutes by the Sea Masterclass.
Musician’s Entrepreneurial Workshop will be taught by Fluterscooter and Viviana Guzman. It will focus on the modern musician’s need to develop entrepreneurial skills to survive in today’s music world by helping participants look outside the box for the untapped opportunities around them and integrating the concept of taking charge of your destiny. Topics will include presenting music in schools, social and media marketing, public relations, writing a good press release, CD production and marketing, how to plan and market your first tour, applying for grants, resume writing, website and press kit design, blog posting, and public speaking.
Workshop 1: Since it’s important for students to understand what we mean by entrepreneurship Fluterscooter and Viviana Guzman will each do a short lecture on their individual projects as well as a joint talk about the Flute View. This is a great way for students to learn is to actually see what is possible. The lectures include discussion of obstacles and challenges faced, discussion of mission statements and more.
Workshop 2: While it’s great to listen to a lecture, it’s even better to have a practical experience. This workshop will start with a meditation to help the students go deeply into their minds to find the things they love best about music, which will help spark their idea’s. From there we will divide the students into 3 groups and we will challenge them to create a project together and present the idea to us at the end. If that proves difficult for the students we will help them to process their thinking around individual projects.
The trio has been presenting their entrepreneurial lectures and workshops at The Juilliard School. Now you can work with them for a full day at Flutes by the Sea Master Classes July 8, 2014 from 10am to 4pm. Application Fee is $100.
