What artists & companies can exhibit on ProPortal?
Artists who meet all of the following criteria may submit their work for exhibition on the portal:
- You have work(s) available for tour booking or online exhibition (online, in venue or outdoor)
- You have a quality recording of the work that is available for tour (this can be a scratch performance and does not need to be on professional equipment so long as the quality of the recording is clear and the visual and audio are accessible).
- The work adheres to industry standards regarding worker rights, music licensing and safeguarding
- The work is not harmful, derogatory or discriminatory
- A company/artist wide commitment to accessibility and inclusivity.
- The work does not need to be a ‘traditional’ performance. See below for genre criteria.
If you are an artist who has a recording of a previous show but not one currently available for tour, you may also submit this to be listed as “Artist Available for Commission”. By submitting for commission you are allowing programmers and producers to contact you for conversation based off your previous work, so ensure you are happy it represents your working practice now.
Once I have completed the form, what happens next?
Once you have submitted your entry, it will then be assessed and uploaded to the website by the ProPortal team at Unity.
You will then be contacted by Unity, who will inform you that your entry is now live.
We encourage all artists to promote the portal and use it as a place to direct contacts to as a one-stop shop for sharing information about your work.
Please note, Unity may contact you for additional information if necessary. For example we may require a higher resolution image, or for you to amend your video settings to allow embedding.
