Financial Information

DJ and electronic music production

Financial information (actual expenses).

During my research on expenses for my project I was able to come up with a table representing 'Theoretical Expenses for my live project'. The real expenses are actually a lot lower and more cost effective due to certain changes and developments in the project.

In short, the list of things that were cut out were:

  • Marketing
  • Business cards
  • Artwork

These were cut because I actually needed hardware to be able to even play a live gig, so budget went into that. Hardware is money better spent than time (or money) spent struggling to find or hire artists and hiring equipment for a culture 'jamming' project.
Marketing also seemed a waste of time due to the event itself being an open mic venue and actually being the advertising for me as an active artist.

As an open mic venue There will be no need for venue hire. So the biggest expense will be equipment and transport.
No money will be made either, however the publicity will be a benefit for my live work as getting into gigging will be a good exposure and breakout for work.
