DANCE MEDIA PROFILE WORKSHOP

Today’s audiences rely on media to discover and connect with artists. The more you can capture the interest of fans through compelling media, the more likely it is that you will gain real supporters who will attend your live shows and make contributions.

In addition, Producers, Talent agents, Managers, Event Coordinators, Scouts, Presenters, News programs, Talk shows, and other artists from across the globe use media to learn more about you.

Creating a Dance Media Profile will help you reach these varied groups of people, and help you to reflect your work and brand as an artist.

Pentacle’s Movement Media is offering a 6-week intensive Dance Media Workshop to help you build a strategic and creative media profile that will win over your audience.

At the end of 6 weeks you’ll be able to:

• Optimize your work on social networks and search engines, create electronic press releases, and improve your promotional content through a variety of distribution channels.
• Be as creative with your Branding, Marketing, and Media Profile as you are with your art.
• Join a community of Artists working on unique projects, receive constructive feedback on your ideas, and collaborate on creative solutions to market your work effectively.
