The national entertainment market recently gained a technological platform for the dissemination and promotion of the works and careers of Angolan artists, called “AGENDA”.
According to the creator of the technological project, Mário Rodrigues, the digital platform “it is a practical and national device that came to respond to the difficulty of hiring artists, fundamentally the non-agency ones”, emphasizing that the platform does not work as an agency, but serves as a connection and exchange between the client and the artist or the artist's agency, if any.
"Any user who wants to hire an artist on the agenda can consult the electronic device, which will contain the artists' work schedules, biography, social networks, songs and videos, as an interactive application”, said Mário Rodrigues, in the presentation of the platform.
BUT: Angolan culture wins digital platform for the promotion and dissemination of national music
The creation of the "AGENDA" lasted one year, and for any musician to be part of it, it is mandatory that he be registered, as long as he downloads the application in the App Store, for IOS devices and in the Play Store for Android devices. After registration, the public can only view the creators registered on the platform from the most varied artistic disciplines.
Then, he said, interested parties should find out about the intended and then formalize the hiring request. Afterwards, customers receive various requested information about the type of event they want. Following this and fulfilling the requirements, the customer makes the payment, shares the comparison and will receive confirmation by message that his activity has been booked with the respective artist.
For several national musicians, they agreed that greater dissemination of the aforementioned technological solution will also allow the gathering of several colleagues and facilitate interested citizens in seeking the promoters' services. They also considered the initiative to be of value to the class, in which they asked for more unity between the agents to publicize the agendas and the platform itself in a clear way about its advantages.
