What's About
The situation with the Covid 19 pandemic has changed the way we all live and work. Artists were not immune to these new changes and were greatly affected as most of the presentations of their work and interactions with audiences were and are based on face-to-face encounters such as exhibitions, shows, plays, performances etc.
With the project proposal, our consortium created tools that helped the artists to combat the Covid 19 situation, reach their target audience and give them the opportunity to present their work, earn an income and overcome the Covid 19 situation.
This project addressed the needs of young dancers and performers who wanted to successfully continue their regular work with the help of digital tools and technologies. It helped them to stay in touch with their existing audience, but also to reach more people by using online platforms and social media.
They learned how to adapt their usual face-to-face activities to develop and implement them online. They discussed how to use the skills and competences acquired to improve the overall quality of their work in the long term and had the opportunity to learn from each other and share their experiences and examples of good practise in relation to the Covid 19 situation.
