MET’s Original Work

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Work with a lawyer to develop an intellectual property contract

Differentiate between “authored” work and ensemble developed work

Create a strategy for disseminating the original work more broadly including publication and performance

Market the MET’s creative process through workshops, college presentations, etc

Create a protocol for the development of projects

Include one original piece in each season, either MET created or presented from another company

Name the original work program – MET Works (?)

Solicit reviews from DC/Baltimore area

Create a web page for original work

Publish original work via e-document that could include images, web links. Etc.

Take “pieces” of original work to smaller venues – open mic sessions, for example

Promote original work to subject specific venues – (Finally Heard to Civil War venues, for example)

Appoint a member (or two) of the Ensemble to provide leadership for managing original MET program
