Can the artist post updates and go live inside their Studio?

How the Feed, Content and Livestreams modules work on a Studio site, who decides stream access, what a fan needs to take part, and what you can change mid-campaign.

Written by Andrea Torres

Yes. The artist can post updates and go live inside their Studio. The Feed, Content and Livestreams modules let them post, drop exclusive content and go live on their own site.

Feed and Content

The artist posts updates in Feed and releases exclusive material in Content. Both run on the artist's own site, so updates and drops sit in the same place, on a domain the artist controls. You turn modules on and off per campaign, so a Studio that does not need a Feed does not have one.

Livestreams are built in

Livestreaming is built into the Studio. You can leave a stream open to everyone or tie it to a release, depending on what the campaign needs. On chart campaigns, keeping access open makes eligibility simpler under applicable chart rules.

Deciding who gets in

You decide who gets in when your EVEN team configures the Studio with you. Tie a stream to a release and it becomes part of what a fan gets for buying. Leave it open and it goes in front of the whole fanbase, including fans who have not bought yet. Either way, the fans who turn up are fans the artist can contact again for the next release.

What the fan needs

Fans have nothing to download from an app store. Every EVEN-powered site is installable in its own right, so a fan can add the artist's site to their homescreen, and signing in takes a one-time code sent by text or email with no password. Community chat is free to join with a free account and no purchase necessary, so the conversation around a post or a stream includes fans who have not bought anything.

Changing it while the campaign is live

You can change pricing, products, content and modules while the campaign is live. Chart-sensitive changes go through your EVEN team, which keeps the chart bodies notified. So a stream that was never in the original plan can go up during the campaign instead of waiting for the next one.
