costs

 

The table below shows what we need like the frames and space, how many and at what price and the total cost of thos items.

 

 

 

flights and hotel

With the festival being an international festival we had to look at the cost of flights from manchester to riga.

Dome pearl hotel is in close proximity to Riga Art space it cost £339.59 per person for 14 nights

Framing

 

 

The price for this frame in A3 was £40 each. This meant the total frames for display would cost £2400 which is very reasonable.

 

The frames we would use on the prints we plan to sell. Obviously the cheaper the costs, the cheaper we can sell the work at/the bigger the potential profit.

We decided it would make sense to stick with Picture Bloc, especially with us applying for sponsorship. we liked the look and pricing of the 'wooden desk range' which are a budget wooden frame but again very high quality.

 

 

 

We decided to sell 5x7 prints at a low price at the event in order to bring some money back in and share the work with visitors.  We decided that each photographer would have 15 prints for sale at around £40 each.

The cost price on these 5x7 frames is £11 each or £1650 all in. With print costs on top (around 60p a unit) there's a potential return of around £4300 on the sale prints.

Booklet

 

Poster and bookloet designs were created by Matt Smith

The group desided that a leaflet would allow us to let people know the reason behind the festival and introduce them to the themes and photographers. The leaflet will be handed out at the festival.

The booklets will be A5 and will have around 15 pages which would include the 500 word on the chosen practitioners and 500 words of our own work as well

We have included the printing costs for this in our budget but we feel this is an essential advertising cost. We estimated around 5000 copies would be a sufficient number to have at the event.
