Individual Audio Project Concept <\/span><\/p>\n

I want to create two 7 minute features about using social media to launch a music career. Each episode will focus on a particular artist and go through how social media has impacted their career and how they’ve used it to their advantage in promoting themselves and gaining fans overseas. I think doing two episodes would be better than a full 15 minute piece as this allows the interviews to relate to each other but not interfere.<\/p>\n

Potential Contributors<\/span><\/p>\n

Leadley<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A singer\/ songwriter who has 310,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel where she has been posting original songs, covers and vlogs for 7 years.<\/p>\n

It would be interesting to discuss with her, how different she feels her social media usage is now compared to when she released music the first time.<\/p>\n

I have contacted her management about an interview and am awaiting a response.<\/p>\n

Bry<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Also gaining a following through his YouTube channel, Bry has performed in 66 countries and has 365,000 subscribers. He is about to begin his last tour and because of this, I think an episode about his career would be a really nice reflective piece of audio.<\/p>\n

I’ve met Bry a few times before and we follow each other on Twitter so I think an interview with him is likely to be possible. I have contacted him via direct message on Twitter and am awaiting a response.<\/p>\n
