What is Muzaik and why does it exist?

     I found a complete lack of community in the creative environment. There just wasn't a place where we all were hanging out. I wanted to work with other creative people to get my own creative juices flowing. Although the internet has made our world so small, we still don't know how to connect with each other to collaborate. We are much greater than the sum of our parts (you, me, all of us). I found the lack of portfolio/collaboration platforms pretty discouraging.

"What if nobody is doing this? What if nobody wants amateurs working on their videos?"

"Well then, how does anybody start?"

People need to connect. Nobody ever "made it" by themselves (as much as they'd love to tell you they did). Art takes collaboration and hustle. Nobody can give you hustle, but Muzaik provides a tool for collaboration.

Muzaik is a network of creative people who want to collaborate and showcase their work as musicians, photographers, graphic designers and even music venues. Musicians can browse through the videographers to find someone to do a music video with them, photographers or graphic designers to do their cover art and venues to play a show. You can message these users to establish a relationship and collaborate. It really is a simple solution to a complex problem.

     Let's say that Joe is a rapper and he is releasing his 3rd album but he doesn't have cover art for it. He'll jump on Muzaik, look for the graphic designers, and shoot them a message asking if they want to work together. Or a videographer could reach out to Joe to collaborate on a music video. Simple as that. It is just a home for creatives.

I believe that creativity is amplified by collaboration.

4 eyes are always better than 2.

New Beginnings

     After toiling with the intricacies of the music industry and finding where I fit, I don't think I fit in just yet. I need to create something(s). I decided to take Muzaik in the direction of what I know, movies. I am starting a new club that meets every week to make movies. I just want to be a part of the creative community in Pittsburgh so we can make some really cool shit.      How do I inject myself into the community?      Cause friction.      By going out and posting where Muzaik is going, I will allow others to follow me. If the leader isn't going anywhere, they won't have any followers. I'll be going to creative events -- whether it be a comedy show, music, $5 movies around town, movie meetups, concerts, open mics etc. -- and writing about them. I will be recognized by those who already know me and people who will be seeing my face more and more.      So go to these events and take pictures. S...
