Curb on Live Performance in Favour for Digital Music Video Production in Australia
The live music performance sector in Australia has been struggling to maintain its dominant status in the industry since the pandemic situation started making headlines. The Government is hell-bent on curbing the freedom of performing live in most major cities and states across the continent because of safety reasons.
The restrictions imposed on the performance of music live on special occasions and during events at hospitality, venues gave a blow to the sector. The government scales up omicron restrictions that the music industry (especially the live performance sphere) feels choked with. The new rules feel harsh.
Personalities from the industry feel as if the live music industry is at the most receiving end to put up a show that public interests are being taken care of by the authorities.
If reports are to believe….
As per a reliable source, the health crisis has taken a toll and wiped out cruelly the live entertainment industry. If reports are to believe, the sector has witnessed harrowing drainage of around $1.4 billion in revenue. The sector saw a declination of 70%, which is indeed a frustrating figure to cope with. The loss is terrible and the scope to re-build is being severely buldozzed by newer restrictions on live performance.
Agencies involved with music video production in Brisbane admit that the demand for music videos soared higher post-pandemic as a curb on live performance surfaced.
Understand,
Focusing on communal health by concerned authorities should undoubtedly be a major concern. But, there is a serious mismatch and inconsistency in restrictions being imposed on live performers in different states. A uniformity helps triggering down resentment as they don’t get to feel deprived and victims of a biased attitude entertained by the government. In some states in Australia, the restrictions seem harsh and never-end, while a few states don’t get to feel the heat so much.
