Who is coming? Why go? Why is this good news? Who is the news good for?
Let's look under the cat.

Introduction

Recently, recently, in far-distant America, a new life was born in Silicon Valley - homo startupius. These, if one may say so, people outwardly are no different from us, but inside they are full of ideas, bright and clean. Each of them wants to make this world a little bit better and lighter, a bit kinder and more decent and much more convenient and easier. With restless spirits they roam the earth until they see some manifestations of the imperfection of things and swear to correct them.

This is bent, right?

However, most startups, especially those that have received investments, solve the pressing problems of mankind. About one of them, namely Talenthouse, I want to tell you.

To whom?

First set out the problem.

I am a musician. I play in a group, I compose music, as it seems to me, not bad. But since it seems not only to me, there is reason to believe that she is really good. We perform in small clubs of our city, we rehearse a lot and compose new songs.



And I know firsthand the problems of young musicians: not to get to big festivals until you become famous or someone doesn’t agree for you, on the Internet ... well, I created a VKontakte page, there were a thousand and a half people gathered, 160 of which came to the concert person.
And now let the question of popularization is not so acute, but the path along which we will go and declare ourselves in the world should be determined now.

That is why I was so happy when Manana asked me to write about Talenthouse.

Who!

I will not walk in devious ways and immediately define the main idea of ​​Talenthouse - this is an online platform for talented young musicians, designers, actors, directors, producers, which allows them to communicate both with each other and with more experienced people.
In general, everything is based on communication and competitions, which are quite a lot in all areas. This could be writing music for a short film, shooting a clip, and developing a logo or T-shirts for Kylie Minogue and Dolce Gabbana. Anything.
The guys, by the way, a few days ago entered into a partnership agreement with the Universal Music Group, with which they plan to attract even more people. After all, in fact, who would refuse to work with such famous musicians?

Contests

Although before that the service was full of celebrities: Lady Gaga, Paul McCartney, Queen, Brett Ratner, Maroon 5, Stephen Jones, Naomi Campbell. Yes, and large brands, too, podotygivalis.
The result was quite a cool thing, in my opinion. Contests and contestants can be viewed here .

When and how?

Everything is available now.
Localization is now quite clumsy, so I recommend everyone to use English.
There are no local competitions yet, but the guys from sunny San Francisco assured me that they are already working on it.
In the meantime, you can participate in global competitions. It is even more interesting and instructive than local ones.
