(2017) Understanding artist development: How do producers support the development of artists through the production process? Masters by Research by Creative Works, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This thesis examines the concept of 'artist development' in music, identifying how musicians develop through the production process, and the role that the producer can play in such development. The study outlines the history of artist development in the music industry and the role of the record producer as an auteur figure, connecting this broad context with creative practice through the production of two EP recordings. Reflecting on artist development from the perspective of producer, the author identifies key elements of the production process that can contribute to the development of artists in a studio setting.
