Artists, the Creative Industry & Politics AGENDA Digital Dialogue: Artists, the Creative Industry & Politics as part of the WORD! Conference program at Berlin Music Week 2014 An event by IMMF in co•operation with Google/YouTube Date: Thursday, September 4th, 2014 Time: 14:00 – 18:30 Location: FRITZ Lounge, Postbahnhof, Straße der Pariser Kommune 8, 10243 Berlin AGENDA *All sessions will be in German unless specified otherwise 14:00 – 14:05 Introduction/Welcome Speaker: Volker May (Vice-Chair at IMMF) Gudrun Schweppe (Head of Music Publishing /Licensing YouTube EMEA at Google) 14:05 – 14:15 Key Note Is content really king? – Digital challenges and the fixation on numbers For labels and especially musicians the rise of Digital and Social Media has brought up some great chances for creating, distributing and selling their music. In theory, a band from a small town in Bavaria could now grow a fanbase in Brazil. Sounds easy, if there wasn’t this big “BUT”. Undoubtedly labels and musicians are facing both new chances but also new challenges alike. Defining new ways of marketing, being creative, staying up-to-date about platforms – basically they need to wear more hats than ever before. And over all this looms a fixation on numbers. In Social Media it’s common word that content is king. So why are we so fixated on numbers like fans, followers and likes? Speaker: Matthias Brinkmann (Head of Trade Marketing GSA & Scandinavia at Believe Digital) 14:15 – 14:50 Panel discussion Transparency and Fairness in the digital music value chain When it comes to the words “fair” and “transparent” there is always an ample scope for interpretation. Still, the players of the digital music value chain haven’t found a consensus what “fair” and “transparent” means when it comes to the artists’ remuneration. The panel will discuss how to put both constructs in more concrete terms and how creator's needs can be met while understanding those of the other players. DOMUS, the German umbrella association for music creatives, will issue suggestions for a more effective implementation of the German Copyright Act, “Urheberrechtskorb 2”.We can expect an interesting and controversial discussion. Moderator: Olivier Toth (CEO at Rockhal and Executive Director at IMMF) Panelists: Betty Dittrich (Artist) Dr. Eberhard Kromer (Chairman at DOMUS) Oliver Sittl (Senior A&R / Region Manager at Believe Digital) Ronny Boldt (CEO at Boldt Berlin Künstler & Konzertagentur) 15:00 – 15:25 Presentation YouTube’s Monetization Model – what’s in it for the Creative Industry? Besides being a promotional or social video platform YouTube can also be an important source of revenue. This presentation will give you a brief overview of YouTube’s business model, how to monetize your content and earn money for views, and finally how Content ID can help you to protect your rights and how to claim UGC. Speaker: Thomas Dreiseitel (Strategic Partner Manager, YouTube at Google) 15:30 – 15:55 Presentation Top Strategies for Music Artists and Album Promotion on YouTube * English session Music is one of the largest and fastest growing content verticals on YouTube. Today, 31 of the top 100 most subscribed channels are music-related - ranging from individual artists, to label channels, to music publishers. What all of these channels have in common is an ability to connect with the audience and inspire their biggest fans to come back again and again. This session is designed to help music creators recognize and apply music-specific strategies to help achieve success on the platform. Speaker: Valerie Streit (Audience Development Strategist at Google) 16:00 – 16:15 Interview What can Music Channels learn from other successful YouTube stars?

The first part will briefly address how Google Search with its crawling, indexing and ranking actually works. The second part deals with practical tips to ensure quality for websites and visibility in search results.

Meet Google, YouTube, DOMUS, the IMMF (International Music Managers Forum) and IMUC (Interessenverband Musikmanager und Consultants), the German association for music managers.

  • European Identity: Symbols to Sport
    ) European identity: symbols to sport Commission of the European Communities Directorate-General for Information. Communication and Culture 6/87 Rue de Ia Loi 200- B-1049 Brussels March 1987 t is 30 years since the signature, in Rome on 25 March 1957, of the treaty which I is more or less the constitution of the European Community. The Community continues to strengthen its identity and to make progress towards one of its fundamental objectives: a Europe that is more united and closer to its people. Symbols and the gestures of sport can help. There is a clear need for steps to strengthen the Coriununity's identity. It will be remembered that in the last European elections in June 1984, only 60% of the electorate actually voted; many people felt little involvement and preferred to go fishing or whatever. Perhaps even more worrying is the fact that Europe and the European Parliament were often ignored in the election campaign. Some days after the elections, at Fontainebleau on 26 June 1984, the Heads of State or Government of the Coinmunity celebrated the success of their 'summit'. They had not only solved current problems but had laid the foundation for the Com­ munity of tomorrow. The aims: to initiate new common policies, to move forward with the political unification of the Old Continent and also to make its people more aware of the European Community. To give concrete expression to these grand designs, the participants at Fontaine­ bleau set up an 'ad hoc' committee on a People's Europe. This body was chaired by Pietro Adonnino, representing Bettino Craxi, the President of the Italian Council of Ministers.

  • 360° Deals: an Industry Reaction to the Devaluation of Recorded Music
    360° DEALS: AN INDUSTRY REACTION TO THE DEVALUATION OF RECORDED MUSIC SARA KARUBIAN* I. INTRODUCTION In October of 2007, Radiohead released In Rainbows without a record label. The band’s contract with record company EMI had been fulfilled in 2003, and Radiohead did not bother finding a new deal as they began recording their seventh album.1 Radiohead then made the album available at www.inrainbows.com, where fans were instructed to “pay-what-you- want” for the digital download.2 Shortly after the album’s release, the band’s front man, Thom Yorke, said “I like the people at our record company, but the time is at hand when you have to ask why anyone needs one. And, yes, it probably would give us some perverse pleasure to say ‘F___ you’ to this decaying business model.”3 It was no surprise that Radiohead received critical acclaim for the artistic merits of the album,4 or that millions of fans found a way to acquire the music. Its financial success, however, was less predictable. Radiohead declined to release statistics related to its pay-what-you-want model, but a conservative estimate suggests that the band’s profits from this digital release exceeded six and a half million.5 Furthermore, when Radiohead contracted with iTunes and a distributor to sell the album on iTunes and in stores, its high sales pushed it to the top of traditional album charts6 in early * J.D.

The venue industry’s scale and dynamism is enormous. Think opera houses and traditional concert halls are a stagnant, no-growth part of the economy? How’s this for a factoid: For the last two decades in the U.S. alone, an average of more than one opera house or concert hall a month has opened its doors for the first time, some of them costing hundreds of millions of dollar apiece. Add to that the countless smaller venues that house artists of every level and every genre, and the opportunity is obvious. Venue Contracts As we’ve seen in other parts of the music business, contracts are the glue that sets the rules for relationships between parties working together to achieve mutual success. And how the rules are written largely depends on the clout of the various parties.
