Is everything that your artists and crew need to know easy to find in their call sheet or schedule? How much time do you spend putting that list together and making sure that the right people have what they need? . . #events #scheduling #performance

Whilst you have many tasks or projects on the go, your brain cannot let go of these. They are not done so they sit "on your mind" all the while. All the while, you are feeling like you should be doing something more, feeling like you have not got things done, feeling stressed... 🧵3/4

Research has shown that people take longer to complete tasks when they attempt to do more than one thing at a time. This is due to "Cognitive load"; it overwhelms the limited capacity of your working memory. You think that you are getting more done when really you are taking longer! 🧵2/4

Trying to do 3 things at once? Forget it! You are totally rubbish at multitasking! Just because you've been coping with juggling multiple tasks at the same time doesn't mean that you are good at it. It just means that you have got used to being totally stressed. 🤔 You don't believe me? 🧵1/4

What is the plan for AI? Especially if you are creating music, art, film, writing; anything that can be used to train AI? Is Intellectual property really hindering our place in the global AI landscape? Or should we be holding onto our IP to protect our artists?
