Production, by magic? –
WERO (ES)

How to set up your own management agency and not die in the attempt –
Leonora Casacu (ES)

Management is possibly one of the craziest roles you can get into in the music industry. To be a manager you have to have a super multidisciplinary profile: negotiation, organization, leadership skills, knowledge of the sector, musical sensitivity, technical mastery, trends, marketing, psychology… are fields that you will have to control, in addition to investing an indecent amount of time in each project.
This masterclass will give you the necessary tools to start your management project from scratch and be able to achieve a sustainable business – both financially and emotionally – in the long term.

Talent Buying around the world –
Victor de la Serna (ES)

Booking artists in your own city or festival can be a world of its own, but what problems can you encounter when you do it in another part of your country? Or even the world? We will try to clarify procedures and things to keep in mind when booking artists in other territories.

Sustainable entrepreneurship in the music business –
Miguel Ángel Zúñiga (CO)

We need to improve the entrepreneurial landscape for agents involved in the cultural and creative industries by thinking about the triad of sustainability (environmental, social and economic). How can we get to this? What should we keep in mind to achieve this? In what ways can we think about our entrepreneurship? Can sustainable balance be achieved? In this masterclass we will solve some of these questions in order to strengthen competencies towards teaching and promoting sustainable entrepreneurship by understanding the role and impact that the music industry has in the ecosystem.

Singing under AI –
Alex Rayón (ES)

Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the way we interact with audio, voice and music. We are using it to develop new systems for speech recognition, speech synthesis, music generation and audio editing. You can thus create music, customize existing music, help musicians to compose, etc. However, all of the above opens up numerous questions about aspects such as creativity, intellectual property or the ownership of human artistic activity. This and much more is what we will do through this practical session in which we will see methodologies, tools and applications so that the participant can take everything learned consolidated.

THURSDAY 26
