Songwriters Association of Canada
The Songwriters Association of Canada contracted Wired Solutions to
develop a brand new web-presence for their organization. The project
requirements were to provide a custom website design, content
management system, a member management system, event management and
many other common elements found in other organizations websites.
Aside
from the standard design and portal modules, Wired Solutions developed
custom software for Songwriters to have their songs assessed by veteran
songwriters via the Song Assessment application. This web-based tool
allows songwriters to post songs to the system, pay a fee, and have
staff delegate which song assessor should assess each song. The
assessor in turn listens to the song right within the web-interfaces,
then critique the song via an easy to use assessment system developed
by us. Once the song assessment is complete, the system generates a
PDF report and sends it directly to the songwriter.
Another
custom element of site is the ability for music managers to create an
account and request songs for movie scenes or commercials. Song
requesters fill out an easy to use request form, and the system
generates a notification to songwriters of the request. Songwriters
can then pitch up to 2 songs per request in hopes of the music manager
choosing their song to be used in the production.
