StevePaulSounds
The Grand Plan
What is it?
WeCreate with StevePaulSounds is a service giving a grander vision to WeCreate, where Steve works with children and young adults of all needs.
Key new features:
Working with all musicians worldwide at early stages in their career
More direct work with Steve's music
Integration with charities
.
The new service involves:
Encouraging work with all musicians worldwide at early stages in their career.
More direct work with Steve, where you can work from a starting music project with all of StevePaulSounds best samples (eg piano parts) and sounds and instruments from his work, so in effect you have the chance to remix or be inspired by aspects of his work. This is a quick process to make a song and makes it more possible to work together online.
Money system / Charities
The service can be found on GoFundMe and Patreon (2 funding websites). A patreon style payment scheme with donations to charities.
Charges to the service are 50% to Steve, 50% to one of 5 charities of a selection by Steve
The charities are: MIND (mental health), a Rainforest charity, an animal Sanctuary, Red Cross (or another poverty/aid relief charity), an organization researching climate change solutions.
The songs made are released if agreed. The profits are then split 50% charity, 25% service user, 25% Steve.
People not using the service can donate to it.
Type of work recommended
A type of work recommended would be spoken word or singing, with a positive message over a mix of different parts of Steve's music.
This could be original words, or copied from, for example, a song or a speech. The theme would be encouraged to be around one of the charity's work.
People can send in poems and lyrics to be used by the service. This will be free and they will get royalties on the songs.
Remixes of 100 Voices - Is Everything Going to Be OK? encouraged.
Also
The best songs are entered to opportunities to be used in films, TV and games that Steve has deals with..
It works with different payments for different things, e.g. coming to Steve's studio, making videos, rewards.
The service will work together with the charities. Social media and blog to support charities and repost their media.
The service could be used by other teachers, (with a 2% share of money going to Steve?).
WeCreate with StevePaulSounds
What is it?
WeCreate with StevePaulSounds is a service expanding WeCreate, which was where Steve collaborates with children and young adults of all needs.
The expansion involves, beyond working on original projects:
Encouraging work with all musicians worldwide at early stages in their career.
A more direct collaboration with Steve with easier and quicker workflow, where you work from a template music project with all of StevePaulSounds best samples (eg piano parts) and sounds and instruments from his work, so in effect you have the chance to remix or be inspired by aspects of his work. This is a relatively quick workflow to make a song and makes it more possible to work together online.
A patreon style payment scheme involving donations to charities.

The best songs are submitted to opportunities to be used in films, TV and games that Steve has deals with. (I'm starting to work on getting deals).
People not directly using the service can donate to it to encourage growth, and may in effect see their charity donation go beyond what they spent.
Scheme with different payments for different things, e.g. coming to Steve's studio, making videos, Steve will convert a musician's music video to 360VR, buying CDs of Steve's work, merchandize (VR headsets?), rewards.
The service will work together with the charities. Social media and blog to support charities and repost their media.
The service could be expanded for others to use the model, (with a 2% share of money going to Steve?).
The service can be found on GoFundMe and Patreon.
Why you're paying and would want to pay:
To support the charities.
Using all the samples and work i've done in last 20 years for little money.
Feeding money into the service creates more money for charity as success of all projects grow.
If your song is successful you earn your money back.
I may submit your song for opportunities in film tv and adverts helping your own career.
