research :

The experience of artists , musicians and industry in which much transactional and monetary actions interact . field study one field study two field study three *

analysis :

" ... say there was a way ( i . e . an artificial intelligence model ) that could look into aiding the artists in recouping lost payouts and revenue from the many amounts when their art and creations have been of use via samplings ... "

*

define :

“ As a user , I would like to upload an audio file , So that I can see such information of the samplings within audio file such as vocal artists , instrumentalists , and engineers . ”

* pain point :

" ... the idea that artists were faced with exploitation via advances that left them penniless after the books were balanced and some still had to stay within contracts for longer than understand to continue to pay off the debts incurred via partnerships ... "

the design thinking process

RESEARCH : a tool that’s needed , yet seldom spoken .

( helpful to navigating path of artist )

goal : a command center / dashboard to see revenue and related numbers .

+ add’l uses : import into Square for business needs . + positives : brings subs ( & artists ) who desire the best streaming treatment for artists .

research tools : interviews

excerpts

“ advice : russ "

- “ [ don't be ] givin’ away your masters & publishing ... " ( inspo : view-able from dash ) - “ ... how much money you’re grossing a year off of streaming ... grossing foreign ? netted ? " ( inspo : update-able ) - “ ... the amount of money being missed out on foreign streaming income ... " ...... “ advice : pharrell " - “ ... its [ the ] music , business . and both of them you should be well-versed in ... " - “ ... creativity doesn’t come out of you .... its the universe ... the universe is a library .... you just checkin out " - “ ... you should always ‘ own ' your creations man ... "

ANALYZE :

common insights

- “ ownership " , - “ revenue from masters & publishing " , - “ revenue from streaming " ( domestic & foreign , esp. gross )

DEFINE :

( USER STORIES )

As an artist , I would like to see the revenue grossed monthly from foreign and domestic streams so that I can be financially aware of progress .

As an artist , I would like to see who is in ownership of the masters and publishing of my work , so that I can be in full control and reward of my art .

IDEATE :

- “ revenue counter " : be able to see revenue ( $ ) from streaming , along with goal revenue this month i.e. see streams and how they relate to masters ( owned - name ) , etc esp. foreign streams ( # ) , rev ( $$ ) gross ( total , per country ) esp. domestic streams ( total ) : ( # ) , rev ( $$ ) gross

- show the masters ( i.e. owned copyrights ) of tracks => relates to streams and future revenue .

PROTOTYPE :

TEST :

feedback

- the streaming revenue should be able to be sorted by quarter , as well as year and month to date .

- seeing the masters owned is enough !

PROTOTYPE , PT. II:

( prototype redesigned for simplicity )

added additional screens to represent different use cases ( masters not owned , etc . )

ENGINEER :

SOON COME ✨
