From 18 July to 27 August, the Amplify Music Incubator welcomed fifteen independent Indian artists for several workshops run by French, Indian, Canadian and English professionals. This hybrid scheme, comprising an online element and a one-week artists’ residence, offers the perfect balance of professional training and artistic creation. To round off the residence, a showcase at the Hideaway in Goa allowed the artists to present their work.
As a “priority mission” nation for the cultural and creative industries, India is a central focus for the work of the Institut français. Through its support for the Amplify Music Incubator, it is helping to structure the sector and professionalise local stakeholders by providing French expertise in the field.
The French professionals present included:
- Sebastien Zamora (Zamora Prod)
- Marion Chapdelaine (Mama Chap)
- François Bloque (Ma Case Prod)
- Clement Serge (Zajazza)
- Alexandre Herer (Nunataq)
