In this day in age, many artists are creating work for themselves by becoming more entrepreneurial in their endeavors. This two-part career seminar ... Workshop: Music Licensing & Positioning Yourself for Success... for musicians (from classical to indie rock and more) will cover relevant topics for the development of a musician’s or music group’s career: Marketing & Copyright.

Texas Accountants & Lawyers for the Arts staff attorney and musician Erin Rodgers will cover the ins and outs of copyright laws & licensing as it relates to musicians. Including:
 

• How to copyright
• How to license your work or how others can license your work

Classical musician, entrepreneurial rockstar, and founder of Impulse Artist Series Jade Simmons will engage the audience in a conversation about how we, as artists, can make ourselves relative and profitable without feeling like we’re selling out. She’ll also cover:
 

• How to uncover your artistic identity and brand
• How to look at what other strengths you have that you can monetize and strengthen your position as a step above the rest
