    Record Company Start – up Project

    This project requires students to create a new record company that must go out
    and sign a band to a LEGAL, BINDING and MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL contract.

    Students will be required to use Microsoft Office software products to create a


    company identity including a logo, letterhead and a personal business card. A
    sample copy of the contract must be completely typed out using Microsoft Word.
    Students must also create a PowerPoint presentation that “sells” their record
    company and contract offer to the band. PowerPoint presentations will be a
    minimum of 12 slides with a recommended length of 15 slides. The contracts
    must cover all the required elements that would make it a legally binding.
    Pictures, clip art, video, and sounds/music will help enhance the readability and
    creativeness of the project, however, these items must be used appropriately and
    the sources of these images must be documented.

    All sources used must be documented using MLA style. A minimum of 3 sources
    must be used to gather information. Photos and other images must be
    documented, but do not count toward required sources.
