I have created a profile with Ideas Tap. I found them through WBL research and have funding which I am eligible for, but I must apply for it this year as the age range only goes up to 30.
£500 will be given to a number of people for a project and I am going to apply for this grant to help with my Dolly Project ideas. I will refine my project proposal and submit this to Ideas Tap.
There are a huge range of creative people and opportunities on this site and I feel it is a good place to have myself as a maker. These kinds of sites are a resource for other artists and also employers searching for talent and suitable candidates for positions. Another way of marketing yourself with little effort.
I responded to a post asking for a poem for a film project and I have sent one of my songs to see if they would like to use it for their film project.
Networking with other artists in this way can create links and promotional material which can be used by both parties and benefit all. If my song is used as the inspiration for this film project, I would be able to use this on my own portfolio too, on websites, share on social media etc...
