Workshop and Lecture Series …the theory behind the practice. Bums on seats is more than word of mouth … If there is one skill that every artist should have, it is the ability to market one’s self. However, this is the one skill that artists are least taught during their years at university. Seldom are they taught about the role played by arts publicists in the arts and entertainment industry. Arts publicists are like public relations (PR) professionals for individual people or groups. Authors, entertainers, artists and musicians often use publicists to help create media attention for their work. Arts publicist, Bridget van Oerle has managed arts events that range from as large as the Johannesburg Arts Alive Festival to medium sized events such as the Bushfire Festival in Swaziland as well as working to promote shows by individual artists such as Pieter Dirk Uys. In this workshop, she will share some of her insights on how both artists and companies can succeed if they build a strategic PR campaign for their work.
Friday 29 June 15:00
All the world’s a stage but it requires design! All the world may be a stage, but someone needs to decorate and light it, and this is where theatre designers come in. They create the sets and costumes - and bring creative ideas to life. You need a host of skills to make it in this industry, as well as drive, dedication and the willingness to take employment outside the theatre to pay the bills while you’re between jobs. Most work is freelance. Dicky Longhurst, the set designer of The Fugard Theatre’s world premiere production of Athol Fugard’s play The Blue Iris, is a multi-award winning South African designer. In this workshop he will share some of his insights, experiences, challenges and passion through a question and answer session about what any aspirant designer should know about trying to make a career as a designer in South African theatre.
Saturday 30 June 15:00
From stage to screen … challenges and solutions for Material success. When the South African film, Material, hit the big screen reviewers raved that finally a South African film drawing on some of South Africa’s best stand up comics did not have to depend on slapstick to succeed. Director of the film, Craig Freimond, got into the heartbeat of a community and was able to tell a story with the kind of integrity that resonated amongst all South Africans. The South African film industry is not without its challenges. Craig Freimond will be at the Festival to introduce the screening of his film. In this workshop, he will offer insights into the making of the movie. Freimond will also discuss some of the challenges that aspirant artists wanting to enter the film industry can face. He will also discuss how he has navigated some of those challenges.
‘Material’ will be screened as part of the Festival’s FIlm programme in the Olive Schreiner Hall, Monument at the following times:

So You Want to Take Your Drama to America.... Retired US Embassy cultural diplomat and Board member of the Market Theatre, Brooks Spector will lead a discussion on participating in the American university and college theatre circuit. What kinds of festivals exist, what are the challenges and opportunities for participating in these festivals? What are the things to think about, how to negotiate the visa obstacle course, what does the landscape look like in terms of costs and where can groups look for money? Finally, he will discuss the black (African-American) theatre circuit - are there any special opportunities for South African companies and playwrights here?
Monday 2 July 15:00
From stage-hand to technical director! From his own extensive 25 year career as one of South Africa’s leading technical directors, Barry Snow will discuss various career options in the technical sector starting off with stage-hands to what is expected of technical staff in the theatre environment and move through the requirements and expectations that managements and artists have of stage staff. He will discuss the working environment that an aspirant technician can expect and how to deal with it. Barry will base his talk on a training manual drawn up by himself and a colleague that ‘fleshed out’ a unit standard titled ‘Stage Manage Performances’ Unit Standard 114553, that was put out by SAQA a number of years ago.

Strategy - A Roadmap to Business Success A common reason why art businesses/entrepreneurs fail, is that they lack a strategy giving them direction of how to become competitive and formidable in the marketplace. Artistic talent alone is not enough in driving profitable and sustainable results. Hilton Lawler, a Strategy Consultant, will provide you with business acumen and marketing skills, enabling you to become a success in your endeavour. Hilton’s experience has been grounded in marketing having worked for multinationals like Coca-Cola, Colgate Palm Olive and Reckitt Benkieser. After obtaining an MBA – Strategy from Reading University (UK) he started his own strategy consultancy working with small to medium size businesses. His passion for the arts, and the eagerness to see businesses succeed, led to his participation in the BASA mentorship programme, culminating in being awarded “Mentor of Year – 2010”. On the program Hilton has developed strategies for The Origins Centre, National School of Arts, Urban Arts Platform and Shwe Shwe Poppis.

All the world’s a stage but you need networks! One of the missions of the National Arts Festival is to help artists find pathways to other stages around the world, and to introduce South African audiences to some of the best work globally. We are members of the prestigious European Festivals Association, the first African Festival to join the world’s oldest and most established arts network. We also helped form the recently launched AFRIFESTNET with membership comprising more than 150 festivals spanning the continent. The World Fringe Alliance is another body we’ve been part of creating, which opens up eight Fringe Festivals - chosen for their character, importance and their openness to welcoming international performers. Grahamstown is currently Chair of the Alliance, and we welcome the other seven members to the 2012 National Arts Festival. This session is your chance to find out from the Fringe Directors themselves how your production can travel to WFA member Fringe Festivals - New York, Hollywood, Amsterdam, Prague, Perth, Adelaide and Brighton.
The Grahamstown meeting of the World Fringe Alliance is made possible through the support of Cacadu District Municipality, as part of their mission to grow the arts economy of the District.

Auditions require more than just sitting on a casting couch! Preparing for an audition is like preparing for a job interview. Too often actors leave an audition or a callback doubting their acting abilities and cursing the casting director. Sometimes, actors are even baffled at how the shy girl who always sat at the back of the drama class sometimes ends up with the lead role. South African stage, film and television actor David Butler will share anecdotes from his illustrious career on how you can make the most of your audition. David will share experiences and offer guidance to younger actors on how to master the audition game along with techniques, a good resume, the right kind of exposure and how to build a reputation that will enable them to become good actors in theory, and good sought after actors in practice too.
David Butler’s “Jurie Steyn’s Post Office” forms part of our Season of Solo Theatre, and can be seen in The Hangar on the following dates:
Thursday 5 July 15:00
Friday 6 July (10:30 & 21:00) Saturday 7 July (13:30 & 18:30) Sunday 8 July (11:00)
Time to “monetise” your creative work! This is the age when a nation’s ability to convert its knowledge into wealth has become a determinant factor in positioning that nation amongst others. The ability to ‘monetise’ your creative work largely depends on an understanding of the degree to which you can effectively exploit your intellectual capital, appropriately leverage it and realise the value of your intellectual property in your art, whether you are a writer, an actor, a musician, or in television or film production. Unathi Malunga, a classically trained cellist and pianist and a graduate of Rhodes University and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) aims to pass on the relevant knowledge to empower you, and to enable you to make a fruitful and sustainable living off your work. Most recently, Unathi was Legacy Officer, Co-Stakeholder Officer and assisted in talent management on behalf of the consortium appointed to produce the 2010 FIFA World Cup Opening and Closing Ceremonies. She drafted all the agreements for those ceremonies as well as for the recent ANC Centenary opening ceremony held in January 2012. Her workshop will discuss deal-making (i.e. partnering and negotiation) and drafting of agreements, finance, production, acquisition and distribution, commercial tie-ins and product placement, including live events (i.e. sport and music concerts) and related matters such as sponsorship, personal rights and broadcasting etc.; the recording, performance, publishing of music as well as the use of music in film; copyright and other intellectual property issues.

Dancing to corporate tunes A workshop by Avril Joffe on how to strategically position your arts organisation for increased value. Approaching corporates for funds requires arts organisations to be able to motivate their programmes and projects. Avril will take you through simple exercises to identify what the value of the arts in society is and support you with the arguments you will need to motivate your application. She will show you how to highlight areas that might be ‘attractive’ to sponsors. The workshop will provide you with key arguments about the value of the arts in both fulfilling social and developmental objectives in South Africa and in accessing new audiences and customers for corporates. Avril will share examples of how successful arts organisations approach corporates from a ‘what’s in it for you’ point of you rather than ‘what’s in it for me’. She will draw on current examples to reveal the practical mechanics involved in establishing, building and maintaining relationships with corporate entities. Avril is the founding director of CAJ: culture, arts and jobs. She is a development economist with more than 15 years professional experience in the field of cultural, culture and development, cultural economy and creative economy as well as creative city development, and more than 25 years in project management, organisational governance, policy development, industry strategy and training.
