Worldbuilding for Artists

One of the most beautiful parts about being an artist is the ability to invite audiences into your universe with every release or live show. But a fully realised world is what pulls you in and keeps you there.

This three-part workshop at San Telmo Studio breaks down the key components of worldbuilding: how to develop a cohesive artist story, create content that carries it, and release music in a way that brings your audience in deeper.

Creative Director Yewande (AW Studio) will open with a workshop on creative direction and artist story alignment, finding the thread that runs through everything you do. Video directorNathan Rathsam will follow with a masterclass on content creation and management, and how to build and sustain a presence that feels genuine to you. The night will close with Jamila Grace (No Time To Impress/Astral People) going hands-on with a workshop on how releasing aligns with content creation, and how they work together to tell your story.

Light catering will be available.
