Quick Question / Lecture Gig - Paid / From Yale University radio / Letters to an Artist / Poet
Published: Mon, 08/07/17
I am writing to you to ask if you or someone you know would be interested in giving a brief Facebook live video talk from your home computer to my Facebook group that has a large following of artists. It could be brief, 20 minutes or so, and it is a modestly paid gig with an honorarium and potentially ongoing compensation if you want to answer questions in the group as well.
Here are the details, but feel free to ask me questions or make a proposal and we can start right away.
As you know, I interview artists, curators, writers, and others for Yale University radio. This is a project that is building a large archive of educational material that I want to expand.
I am looking for a brief live video about 20 minutes in length, about one of several topics, and if you are interested, or know someone who is, I would like to hear from you.
These videos would be used to help artists in their studio practice and be of educational value, even if in the form "Letter to a young Poet / Artist" with thoughts on studio practice advice to something much broader or more philosophical - but I have also outlined specific topics below.
These are the topics I am looking for and have a budget to pay modest fees for each ($50 per video with more possible if you want to be involved more in the group).
I am reaching out to you, because I am looking for individuals that have something to share that would benefit other working artists, but you can also propose a lecture I have not listed here, that you feel would benefit an artist professionally.
Would you like to present any of these topics or another one?
1. A video lecture on fundraising for independent film making.
2. A video lecture on best approaches to finding and applying to residencies.
3. A video lecture on best practices to communicate with galleries and present work and proposals.
4. A video lecture on finding and applying for grants in Europe.
5. A video lecture on finding and applying for grants in the U.S.
6. A video lecture on working with non-profit organizations in Europe.
7. A video lecture on working with non-profit organizations in the U.S.
8. A video lecture on finding public art open calls and applying and writing proposals.
9. A video lecture on social media strategies for artists.
10. A video lecture on working with festivals and European presenters for audience - based work .
11. A video lecture on engaging and participating in artist - driven communities in the U.S. and Europe.
12. A video lecture on creating a record label (vinyl) and working with other artists and producing and distributing the work.
13. A video lecture on creating and funding an artist collective (or artist-driven institution) anywhere in the world.
14. A video lecture on organizing your visual art / performing art practice and how you communicate and dialogue with different venues and opportunities.
15. A video on any other topic for artists anywhere in the world that will help with aesthetic and professional development.
If you are interested in one of these or proposing something else, just reply and tell me about it, and your background, and what you would cover in the video and we can move forward!
Sincerely,
Brainard
