Production

Showcasing the pre-eminent art collection in Western Australia

Production

This category is for projects involving the production of recorded product for public consumption. Production is not the top priority for the Contemporary Music Panel, which prefers to invest more strategically in assisting artists to properly promote existing work.

Demos and first recordings for retail release are unlikely to be funded.

To be successful in the production category, applicants should demonstrate that the recording has exceptional promise and is particularly timely for the artist or band. The applicant must have a strong track record in the WA music scene.

Eligible expenses include recording costs; producer and engineer fees; mixing; mastering; design work and printing; pressing; remixing or remastering of existing product; launch costs and initial marketing expenses.

Applications should
  • demonstrate established and potential markets for the recorded product
  • include comprehensive marketing plans (paid and unpaid promo)
  • provide sales figures of previous releases
  • include how the product will be distributed
