muti works will all kinds of arts and wants to ease out the life of artists. Therefore we will start our booking agency slowly in May & June.
We are looking for a booking assistant who will help us achieve this goal by establishing the first contact to cultural institutions and venues based in Portugal. We do have a data bank with contacts to be contacted too.
Requirements:
Portuguese & English speaking
Availability: 10 hrs./month for now
Well organized and communicative
Aware of muti’s goals and
Preferably experienced in working in the cultural field
For the first month we will reward with 100 USD & a % if a gig with one of our artists has been confirmed.
For questions regarding this position feel free to join our TG
Thank you! Help has been greatly appreciated. We worked on more emails and sent out proposals to locations showcasing our artists. Payout request to our astro dao can be done
Just giving a little update from muti side.
As July & August the booking agency project was a bit dormant due to the festival season and as many places did not accept new artists, we have now started to work on it again.
We do have 200 DAi not spent yet (20 hrs) and would like to request a budget to top up for another 30 hrs (300 DAI) so that we can focus on it in September.
Both of them know muti, live in Portugal and are either working in the cultural area or have experience with artist contacts.
Recently we:
updated our contact list with more than 50 contacts to be contacted/ reconnected
created 5 Press kits for our artists
are in the process of updating the Press Kits according to our new visual identity from Proximo Studios
updating the contact list with newly made contacts and contacts that have reached out to us during the last months
The plan for September is:
contacting venues in Portugal for muti events
contacting venues/programmers to integrate our artists
contact official entities like municipal halls, radio stations, and universities to establish connections so that muti will be spread out
In terms of self-sustainability, the agency and funds for it will help to pay the hours of the collaborators and for each gig muti will receive 15-20% commission, of which 5-10% will go to the collaborator who was able to secure the location. This will allow the project to grow and the position can be paid for by itself eventually.
I have contributed with 10H to muti booking doing research on venues for possible collaboration, translating content of PK and presentation of muti, and creating email drafts and contacting venues via email.
