Budget

                                  Budget

Below there is the graph of the budgeting of the gig  that took place on the 20th of May in the college theatre. In the graph of the budgeting you can see how many tickets we sold and how much money we made from all of it. We also had to put down how much money the performers, sound engineer, lighting and box office staff should get and how much money we spent on the chalk and hooks.
In the graph you can also see the outcome of the profit that has been left.

Headline Fee


We decided to give the headline act the most amount of money of £100 as they are the main people in the gig because they are the performers and people only come to watch them and most of the tickets sales are sold because of the fans wanting to come see them playing live. The reason why we didn't give the more is because the they would be getting more money from their merchandise sales.


Support Fee


We decided together that the support act would be getting half of the amount of the headline ac which is £50 and the reason why is because they are not the main acts. People come to see everyone in the band but most of the people come see the main acts. But it doesn't mean they won't be making more money because there still the money of the merchandise


Sound Engineer

Next on the graph we have the sound engineer, lighting engineer and the box office staff and we decided together the sound engineer £30 which will be getting more money than the sound engineer and the box office staff and the reason why we are giving them more money is because in a live show one of the most important thing is the sound, because without a good sound engineer making sure every instrument can be heard and the singers can be heard, the event wouldn't go well because people wouldn't hear things properly and they wouldn't enjoy it.

Lighting Engineer

Next on the graph is the lighting engineer which will be getting £25. The main job of the lighting engineer is making sure that the people performing can be seen by the audience. Most of the time people want different lights for different songs so they need to make sure they change the lights for each song and sometimes people want the lights flashing and again they are the ones in charge of it.

 Box Office Staff

Next and last on the graph is the box office staff which will be getting the least amount of money of £15. The reason why is because their job is the easiest one, the only thing they will be doing is getting the money from the tickets, giving the tickets to the people buying it and giving them their change. All
they will need to know is maths, and that's why they are getting this amount.


Overall, we came out with a profit of £111,66 which is really good but that is not it, we also made money with the bar.
