Supporting Work Experience Placements 2023/2024
Portsmouth, United Kingdom
Aim
To support aspiring music industry professionals by way of work experience placements for all schools and colleges across our community.
Mayfield Records Ltd (MRL) is a creative hub based in Hampshire offering a range of music industry related services to include recording studio (audio production), video production, record label, live sound and live-streaming.
MRL was established in 2014 to support and nurture a thriving, all-inclusive music community on the south coast. Since opening our doors, MRL has offered regular work experience placements for EVERY school and college across our local community, as well as the University of Portsmouth.
Feedback from the students and educational institutions alike is always positive and the placements are clearly a valuable resource for the aspiring, young music industry professionals across our locality.
Arranging and delivering these work experience placements takes time and effort for the MRL team and since the onset of the cost of living crisis, has become a significant stretch on our resources. We are therefore seeking funding to allow us to continue offering these vital work experience placements.
The skills acquired for these young individuals are both numerous and diverse. They include: audio production, microphone placement, video production, live sound, live-streaming, the music industry, music promotion & marketing, releasing music & distribution, music composition, time management, interpersonal & communication and confidence building.
These skills will prove instrumental in allowing the students to progress forward in their chosen career pathways.
