Popular Music Institute 2
Building upon BPMI-401 and continuing with an emphasis on experiential learning, this course provides students the opportunity to produce and promote a professional multi-artist showcase at a mid-sized, off-campus music venue. The showcase features the artists that have been selected for the BPMI festival slots. In preparation for the showcase, students will work with the selected artists to prepare promotional assets, plan and execute a PR strategy, create a tech rider, and put together a run-of-show. Additionally, students will continue the process of planning the upcoming festival performances. This includes advancing the festival, beginning artist rehearsals, and discussing the foundational elements of festival travel budgets and itineraries.
