Welcome to ‘Making Creativity Pay’, this isn’t a podcast about making millions, more about speaking to people in creative industries whether that’s music, literature, art or anything that relies on creativity about how that ties in with making a living from it. The aim is not about selling out any creative endeavour but to ensure that there is at least some way to pay the bills and keep the lights on, money can be seen to be a vulgar part of the process but getting fairly paid for the time, effort and expertise you put in to something shouldn't be a bad thing.

    Poltergeist - Charlie Vero-Martin

    "I've taken four solo shows to the Edinburgh Fringe previously, which have all been multi-character shows, and slowly throughout, the very first show I did was just all characters, and then second, third, fourth, I started more and more each time being a bit more myself in the show. and it's interesting because a lot of the time, especially after my last show in 23, a lot of the sort of industry feedback I was kind of getting was like, we loved it, it was great, but sketch is dead. so maybe you should work on like a one-woman play or a one-woman show and I thought, I don't know about that. Of course now though that I'm telling everyone I'm doing stand-up, they're like, but sketch is coming back.” This episode is with Charlie Vero-Martin who is at Fringe this year with her work in progress stand-up show Poltergeist We talk about deciding to take a stand-up show to Fringe after previous years with character comedy shows, the resurgence of sketch comedy, her workshops and other writing experience.

    Juliette Burton and Gareth Gwynn

    “I did a sketch show that was on the free fringe that during that month, I walked so much that I actually put holes in my shoes. So I had to buy shoes in Edinburgh during the fringe, but it meant I had a pair of shoes with holes in. I could physically show the audience. To go, look, I need money. I have actual holes in my shoes.” “For me, it's leaning on the nerd culture thing. I think that there are very different types of nerds. There are nerds who really studied hard, got into maths and have really high paid jobs now. If you're that kind of nerd, please give... And then there's the nerds like us who, you know, we really enjoyed being nerds, but unfortunately, we've chosen to nerd out about an industry that is completely not high paid” This episode is with Juliette Burton and Gareth Gwynn - Juliette is doing 3 shows at Fringe this year across both ticketed and Free Fringe and we discuss doing multiple shows and the differences between them. Gareth is performing his show Cyril after a having it as a work in progress last year  We talk about skill swaps between the two of them, PR, social media advertising and other ways to get the word out Instagram:   https://www.instagram.com/juliette_burton/  https://www.instagram.com/gareth_gwynn/  Fringe Tickets:  https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/juliette-burton-villain-era  https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/get-your-geek-on-a-nerdy-comedy-showcase  https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/juliette-burton-s-board-to-distraction  https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/gareth-gwynn-cyril    Find More about ‘Making Creativity Pay’ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makingcreativitypay/  Making Creativity Pay Newsletter: https://makingcreativitypay.substack.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danjbarnett/

    Hannah Platt, Ruby Carr and Kat Higgins - Episode 100!

    “Ruby is daft and funny and high energy and silly, and whatever the content of the show is, it will be through that lens. And same with Hannah, it'll be dry and witty and things. And people who know me and have seen my stand-up, like know what I'm like on stage.  I think for me having done marketing and stuff for other fringe shows before, sometimes it's about making that clear what the content of the show is, because some people just want to see stand up, right? Some people don't want to see clowning or whatever else, but then there's even within, you know, stand up, me, Ruby, and Hannah all do very different things on stage.” This episode is with Hannah Platt, Ruby Carr and Kat Higgins who are all performing at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe. It was brilliant to hear from 3 great comedians and how their styles and attitudes to things like Flyering or Social Media differ as well as the things they have in common. We talk about poster design, fringe finances and lots more Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/hannahtheplatt/  https://www.instagram.com/rubyvroomvroom/  https://www.instagram.com/kat.higginscomedy/  Fringe Tickets:  https://www.pleasance.co.uk/event/hannah-platt-cult-classic  https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/ruby-carr-bite-me  https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/kat-higgins-in-memory-of-me  Odd Jobs Podcast: https://spotify.link/D2IrPvmdCXb  Hannah on Bandcamp: https://alovelytime.bandcamp.com/album/defence-mechanism    Find More about ‘Making Creativity Pay’ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makingcreativitypay/  Making Creativity Pay Newsletter: https://makingcreativitypay.substack.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danjbarnett/

    Spooky Dookie - Cool New Planet!!

    “Maureen has learned piano in recent years and we had a scene where she sings a song and so she was playing piano, but because we're gonna be at fringe and renting a piano and then bringing it on and off stage just all felt too persnickety.

    Eleanor Morton - The Mermaid

    “I have a Samsung TV, it will choose a specific channel to be the channel that's on and it's always something really  random when you switch the TV on and for a while it was like the space channel, so was just like satellite images of Earth. At one point it was ITVX's comedy channel, and so very occasionally I would switch it on and I'd be on the TV and that was very surreal” Eleanor Morton who is performing her show ‘The Mermaid’ at the Edinburgh Fringe during August  We talk about being on a two-yearly show cycle, her experiences of over a decade at the Fringe as well as building a profile on Social Media, podcasting and writing for TV and Radio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eleanormortoncomedy/   Show Tickets: https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/eleanor-morton-the-mermaid   Eleanor on ITVX: https://www.itv.com/watch/eleanor-morton-has-peaked/10a3838  Eleanor on Next Up Comedy: https://nextupcomedy.com/authors/eleanor-morton  Eleanor & Alasdair Read That: https://readthat.podbean.com/  Cover Photo: https://www.instagram.com/tjstade/  Find More about ‘Making Creativity Pay’ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makingcreativitypay/  Making Creativity Pay Newsletter: https://makingcreativitypay.substack.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danjbarnett/

    Mark Vigeant - OUT THERE

    “My partner Anna had come up with this idea that like Edinburgh is like the way that surfers will travel to remote places to catch the best wave. That is what Edinburgh is. It's the best wave.

I caught a really good one, you know? ” This episode is with  Mark Vigeant about his show OUT THERE which is on at the Edinburgh Fringe during August  We talk about what as an American keeps him coming back to Edinburgh every year, the creative process for producing a poster as well as turning a previous Edinburgh show in to a special that’s available on DropoutTV Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mark_vigeant/  Show Tickets: https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/mark-vigeant-out-there  Special on DropOutTV:  https://watch.dropout.tv/videos/mark-vigeant-the-best-man-show     Find More about ‘Making Creativity Pay’ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makingcreativitypay/  Making Creativity Pay Newsletter: https://makingcreativitypay.substack.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danjbarnett/

    Dancing and Magic - Ava Beaux and Christie Lee Manning

    “ The more I give myself permission to do stuff, the better the act has got, and I think it has taken me 10 years to get to a point where I'm like, "Yes, this is what I want to do." I'm making a show now that I've wanted to write for the past 10 years. I've had such imposter syndrome with the acting side of things, 'cause I never went to drama school.” This episode is with Magician Ava Beaux and Dancer/Choreographer Christie Lee Manning of Response Theatre Company.  We talk about the similarities in the disciplines, their Fringe shows developing as performers and more Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/magician.ava.beaux/  https://www.instagram.com/responsetheatrecompany  I Made You a Mixtape: https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/i-made-you-a-mixtape  Ava Beaux:  https://www.edfringe.com/tickets/whats-on/ava-beaux-the-witching-hour    Find More about ‘Making Creativity Pay’ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/makingcreativitypay/  Making Creativity Pay Newsletter: https://makingcreativitypay.substack.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/danjbarnett/
