Event Booking Hot Day

Up to today (7 Dec) still having many people inquire caricaturist for 9th December Friday 6.30pm-7.30pm event like dinner and dance or Christmas Party. 9 Dec really a super hot date for events fringe art activities!

I repeat again: Many event companies had asking the same item same timing and same day since early October, so that will be very difficult to get caricaturist since November i guess, unless they managed to get art students to do fulfill the requirement.

An experienced caricaturist who doing commercial events like dinner and dance and dance, the quantities to be produce at least 12-20pcs drawing within an hour's booking, other than that, he or she should know how to bring in the entertainment atmosphere to the event as well as know how to handle the crowd.

Based the past experiences on the below hot date of booking caricaturists and silhouette artists, the event peoples and whoever who like to hire such fringe activities, seems they have to make decision fast enough, else just try avoid this hot date.

Last few years' hot Friday of December for caricaturists and silhouette cutting artist booking on 6.00pm-7.00pm or 6.30pm - 7.30pm:

10th December, Friday, 6.30pm-7.30pm

10 December, Friday, 6.30pm-7.30pm is one of the super hot date and timing on the demand of live caricature drawing artists, seems whole Singapore Island was asking caricaturists in this date at timing.

As I mentioned, no matter how famous how high or how low rated you are, or how strong / how best / how top level you are, unfortunately you can do 1 show only at 1 place at 6.30pm-7.30pm (or 6.15pm-7.15pm / 7pm-8pm) for 1 event company only.

Even if the whole Singapore’s event companies request your service for the mentioned hot date and timing, you still only can go 1 place to do 1 show.

I already mentioned this in my posting in 2007. This is is what we need to compromising.

This is because live caricature drawing is a unique skill and people like it because it is an art, need a skillful professional to handle, not like other items eg.pop corn, as long you have the machine, you just send someone there and do it, no need and special skill to handle, hence the event manager categories a caricaturist as "Talent".

You might realized, you already booked for this date and timing, no matter how many event companies calling you, it doesn't mean you are damp good business or damp popular, is because there are so many last minuted client asking the event company provide this item, and you are only can do one show during 10 dec Friday 6.30pm - 7.30pm.

Clone as many of yourself so can do many jobs in different places at the same time?
Unless after that you can "join back" became 100% of you just like one of the "X-Men" Movie, otherwise, let say you cloned 5 of you, means you need buy 5 pack of paper, 5 time of transport fees and related expenses, it doesn't make sense right?

Event Caricaturist Day!

6.30pm – 7.30pm, 11th, December, Friday, 2009!
6.30pm – 7.30pm, 18th, December, Friday, 2009!

That was many event companies asking for caricaturist to do their dinner and dance since 2 months ago, as per usual, the above date and timing is the hot date for caricaturists’ pre-event booking.

Does it mean the economy of the market had picked up?
I don’t think so, because is just happened the whole Singapore island’s related companies having dinner and dance from 6.oo pm onwards.

Train 500 caricaturists to meet the ‘Caricaturists Day’ to meet the market’s need?
Wrong question! From my experiences, it only occurs 1 to 3 times within each year so far.

There are up and down period within the year, it could happened that continuously no events caricaturists demand or having super low demand, for example like the period that having H1N1 cases, many caricaturists will try to look for job and trying hard to check which competitor is undercutting them. Haahaa!

6.30pm – 7.30pm, 11th, December, Friday, 2009, can do pre-event caricature?
6.30pm – 7.30pm, 18th, December, Friday, 2009, can do pre-event caricature?

As an event caricaturist, please ask yourself how many places you can go in above mentioned time frame?

Clone 50 of you so made the 50 cloned ‘you’ grab the entire job?
Nope! Because the 50 cloned you already a real human, ‘they’ need to use the money to survive (just like eat, drink, clothing and related expenses)

My idea is getting 50 ‘Surrogates’ of me (a robot which made exactly like me, see Bruce Willis’s movie), so after the 50 ‘Me’ done the entire job, just back home and past me the earned $, and then all of them go back to the cupboard and sleep (or charging electricity)!

Hia hia!

Hot booking day for Caricaturists and Silhouette Cutting Artists

7 dec 07 friday

From an entertainer’s eyes, Friday and Saturday of every year’s November and December was the peak period of all Artists, performers and entertainers.

As fringe art artists, usually like Caricaturist, Silhouette Cutting artist, Henna / Airbrush tattoo, tarot card reader, fortune teller etc… will booked by the event companies’ from around 6.30pm to 7.30pm for their diner & dance in island wise.
As my experiences, every November and December will have one or two days which all the event companies looking for caricaturist or silhouette artist.

(Silhouette Cutting Artist was another type of artist the event that introduced by me to many event companies in 3 years ago, it became a popular item in demand since then.)

This year’s “Caricaturist / Silhouette Cutting Artist Hot Day” was known at 7th December (today) and 14th December. Many event companies was looking for both caricaturist and silhouette artist since 2 months ago.

Up to yesterday still have event companies calling me asking for my availability for the 2 mentioned date above.
