This webinar offers tools for individuals who are interested in (or have already been) creating professional level works, but are "stuck" on what must actually happen once the work is finished and needs to find placement in the public market. With modern healthcare creating ever more solutions for individuals with disabilities or chronical illness, these individuals are experiencing better qualities of life. However, these advances have also created a new population where individuals are often too ill to work, but too educated or talented to allow those capabilities to go to waste. Our lead presenter is part of that population and actively seeks ways to help fellow artists make the most of their talents and therefore, their lives.
The Least You Need to Know – With the rise of self-publishing and low cost creator ownership/marketing, there is an excess of advice about what actually needs to be done by an artist for his or her work to be considered professional. We will give the absolute basics that artists need to know copyrighting and distributing work in the literary and visual arts.
What To Do Next – We will answer specific issues brought up by attendees, solving their specific problem so that webinar attendee can take next step in either starting/completing a project or getting work out to public/relevant audiences.
Intended Audience: Visual and literary artists of any age who have already created work that is suitable for public display or sale. Also, aspiring artists in the aforementioned realms who are perhaps seeking a more concrete way of developing their talents.
Level: Beginner/Intermediate
