Slash 1 is over ! Relive the last workshop of season 1
Despite the ups and downs linked to the European health situation (French restrictions and the inability to travel), the Slash team bounced back to transform and adapt this workshop to an online format.
The artists were therefore able to work and reflect on various themes directly linked to the Covid crisis, such as livestream — technical setup with Hans-Paul Landriève from StudioVolume, stage presence and acting with the choreographer Bénédicte Le Lay — as well as well-being and health of the musician during this period of uncertainty with the naturopath Sandrine Bileci. They also had the opportunity to talk about reaching professionals during this period with Dorian Perron from Groover.
Several individual meetings were also scheduled by videoconference (except for the French artist Joanna who was the only one able to travel). Quentin Gauvin, for example, discussed with the artists their streaming strategy in times of Covid, Hans-Paul, for his part, advised them on their communication. Pablo Camino and Phil Morris were also able to speak with certain artists about their respective expertise. Finally, Bertrand Lacroix worked with Sandrine Bileci to prepare healthy recipes that artists can prepare easily and that are adapted to their needs (touring, stress, quick meals, etc.).
To end this season 1, the Slash team is currently working on all the tools and recommendations that came out of this intense & enriching program. Stay tuned!
Here is a retrospective on this last workshop which closes season 1 of Slash.
