THE EPK and Professional Portfolio coaching sessions focus on launching emerging artists and supporting them in professionally developing their Bios, Professional Portfolios and Electronic Press Releases. Centering an industry standard model, this session focuses on coaching new artists (across mediums) with the aim of giving them tools and skills that help participants self promote their artistry and work.

This is a tailored coaching session that meets the needs of each individual artist and their needs. Through our Registration Form we are able to tailor this coaching session to the participants’ needs.

Learning Outcomes;

  • Participants will learn what a biography is, why it is important and what is included in it.
  • Participants will learn what an Electronic Press Kit (EPK) is, why it’s important and what forms they can come in.
  • The difference between a Biography and an EPK/Professional Portfolio and the best platforms to put them on.
  • Participants will gain knowledge on how they can format and market their professional portfolio.
  • Participants will walk away with a LONG and SHORT version of a bio at the end of the session.

This is an interactive Coaching Session with a cap at 10 participants per session.
