MusicCamp and Filmcamp Singapore

The 1st MusicCamp Singapore was held at  The Pigeon Hole on Duxton Road on Saturday, 19 March.

The group comprising music content creators and entrepreneurs was passionately eclectic.

Derek Sivers – Founder and former president of CD Baby was an exceptional speaker. He shared on how important networking, mentorship, true grit and persistence pay off in the music business.

Derek touched on

  1. Originality.
  2. The importance of describing your music well. Be precise in telling people what you do (decide on your messaging).
  3. Piracy is the enemy? No. In the music business, OBSCURITY is the enemy.

There are fiery, passion-infused discussions about the art and the source itself – content creating, with a small dose of business talk. And lots of happenings, impromptu – in the middle of the event, someone showed up and shared about beatboxing. I love gatherings such as these. Instead of events about the speakers, it’s about the community. People are more genuine and relaxed, they share and open up more. It’s creative chaos at its best.

Looking for ‘like-minded’ community events? Join aspiring filmmakers (zero filmmaking knowledge required), actors, producers etc and people who are already in the field THIS Saturday at Filmcamp Singapore 2011 featuring the maker of R2D2 and local filmmakers.

You can be the closet filmmaker, or video grapher who dreams of making that short film one day. Something you can proudly call your own.

You can be a geek who loves films.

It is an event for really smart people and really, really smart people to network, learn and share in an open environment.

You’ll be amazed by what you can learn and the people you’ll meet.

March 26. Don’t miss out.

See you there.

From ‘American Beauty’
~Lester Burnham (Kevin Spacey)
I feel like I’ve been in a coma for about twenty years. And I’m just now waking up.

“If it can be written, or thought, it can be filmed.” ~Stanley Kubrick

“I really approached the film as if it was a white big piece of paper and I was just going to draw a picture on it. And whether that picture was good or bad, whatever people thought of it, what they could never take away was that it was my picture.” ~Johnny Depp

The first Filmcamp kicked off on a Sunday morning, 31 January 2010, after months of planning and pinning down a good venue.
