The Emphasis Project: 360 Artist will help youth between the ages of 13 to 18 years old understand the proper steps to take when creating and releasing music as independent artists. Our program focuses on the business aspect of the music industry with an emphasis on how to properly protect and be compensated for intellectual property.
Over eight-weeks students will spend four hours per week learning about recording, publishing, copyrights, streaming media, and music distribution. Also, books, such as Influential Hip-Hop Artists will be implemented into the curriculum to explore how to create influential music. Throughout the course of the class, students will collaborate on a music project that will allow each student to play a role that reinforces what they have learned. Students will choose between roles such as artist manager, writer, music publisher, and publicist. The final project will be creating and releasing a song onto streaming platforms.
