Is your budget for Talent Fee only or for a Fully Produced Event? - Producing a successful event is serious business, there are many people, and many logistics involved. This is not a place for the feint of heart. and it is best to know up front exactly what you are getting in to. At show time, you don't want any surprises. and neither do we or the Artists either!
There are basically two parts that make up a successful event budget:
Talent Fee & Production Rider costs:
| Talent Fee | The fee paid to the Artist for their services. Frequently this can be only 1/2 (or less) of the total cost for an event - the other half involves the Production Fee - the cost involved for coordinating the exact requirements necessary for the Artists to put on a successful performance. These requirement can frequently be found on the Artist's Production Rider. |
| Production Rider | A legally binding agreement containing all of the necessary ingredients needed for a successful show. Items include exact details of Artists' flights, ground transportation, hotel rooms, insurance needs, backline, hospitality, production, staging etc. (also known as Contract Rider, or Rider) |
Production Rider costs, depending on your show, can and will include one or more of the following:
|
Airfare |
Orchestra Permits/Taxes Piano/Tuner Pipe & Drape Police Private Security Quick Change Room Refreshments Rent Runners Sound System Sound Technician Staff Stagehands Staging Talent Fee - Headliner Talent Fee - Support Act Telephones Union Labor as required by location Visas... and more |
Therefore, you have two options available for your budget:
1. Talent Fee Only - Produce It Yourself
If you are an experienced talent producer, and are comfortable with the talent producing process, we will be happy to quote strictly Talent Fee, and let you be responsible for the production rider costs. However, please make sure you are well versed in producing events, or you might possibly become well versed in frustrations!
2. Fully Produced Event (Talent Fee + Production Rider)
Most of our clients prefer working this way. If you are new to the entertainment process, don't have time, or are not comfortable sweating out the numerous details involved with a serious production rider to create a successful show - then this is probably the best option for you. You just show up, start the engine, and look good - we do the rest! Start here!
If you are planning a special event and are seeking serious professional entertainment coordination - we stand ready to consult and deliver celebrity talent for corporate events, conventions, conferences, sales meetings, new product promotions, banquet entertainment, holiday parties, concerts etc.
