Governance
This section breaks down the structures and systems that help keep creative projects and organizations running smoothly. From understanding boards and bylaws to making collective decisions and ensuring accountability, this section offers clear guidance on how governance can support sustainable, values-driven work.
Archiving
There are a lot of practical reasons why keeping a record of your body of work is not just useful, but essential. Archival photos and videos can be useful support material for grants. They also can make or break your chances at staging your production at a curated festival, touring, or doing a remount. They can help grow your website and social media presence as you build a body of work.
Records Management
Managing communications & information effectively is an essential skill of any successful producer. While email is the most common - and absolutely the most essential - tool in today’s digital world, there are many free tools available to you to help streamline conversations, manage tasks, record and save key decisions or documents, and share information between collaborators. There are also a few key strategies that you can implement that can help you as you balance multiple projects. How you choose to use them and in what combination depends on what makes the most sense to you, the demands of the project and buy-in from your team.
