Differences in the type of festival:

One Love festival is the UK no.1 reggae dub set event that runs from the 6th of august till the 8th, located in London at Hainault Forest Country Park, Fox Borrow Road.

The New York international independent film and video festival (NYIIFVF) witch is in place for all people intrested in video and film at a high level and also at amature levels is one of the largest independent film festivals in the world. It began in 1993. It has been recognized by the film and entertainment industry as one of the leading film events on the independent festival circuit. The festival hosts film, music and art events in the two entertainment capitals of the United States: New York and Los Angeles. NYIIFVF attracts many global entries, including: Australia, Brazil, Sweden, Kenya, Japan, Canada, France, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Mexico, Colombia, Russia, Germany, Spain, India and the U.K so as you can imagine this festival is rather large. The next one is in Los Angeles on Feb 25 - March 4Th 2010 and to gain information about the cost of entrance contact: Administrator: 702-263-4480


There are many differences between these three festivals due to the cost of each and how the location effects the amount of people that go and some times the date planed for the festival effects the amount of people but the one think they have in common is there medium to large but none really small for example like the redfest festival help in redhill witch is just a small town that’s only ever had small time band playing and costs as little as £35 for the whole event and a even smaller festival called nice n sleazy that’s held at Trimpell Sports and Social Club, Morecombe, Lancs., is on 28-30 May 2010 this small punk wave festival has 2 stages and free camping and cost as little as £45

Differences in size and scale:


One love is a smaller event due to its location and the funds and sponsors there given is  not that much. The main reason for this is the artists that play there are unlikely to have a big star rating where as Wireless is one of the biggest music festivals and gets alot of funds and sponsors from big industrys in England because of that it attracts some really big artists so needs to be in a large area to accomadate every one. NYIIFVF is also one of the largest video and film festival due to its nature and its target audience is world wide so it will bring in a very very large amount of people so the mass of land needed is very large where as in comparison to redfest thats a little event due to it being located in redhill witch is a small town with small land mass for an option to use along with nice n sleazy witch is also a rather small event help at a social club thats also a rather small area to have a festival that effects the amount of people that can attened

1.4 discuss the following two qustions

1 How would you decide how small or large a particular festival is?
if there was loads of advertisement all other the place (web, TV, radio, newspaper) your easily no that's its going to be a big event depending on if its on a locale radio station or an bigger well none one then depending witch your know also by the location of the event well give an idea of if its going to be like for example if its helped in a local field its going to be a small event where as if it was help in say New York your going to know it will be big also by the names of people going if its people that are on TV (popstars,rockstars) your no it will be big for them to attend where as if there all unknown names its likely to be small
2 What factors might determine the scale of a festival?
first you would need to decide your target audience if your doing a locale festival with say local music band the you wouldn't need to much room due to there not being a large amount of people likely to go but if its got more important people involved then the more likely your need a bigger land mass due to the amount of people that would want to go also the bigger the star factor the bigger amount of people likely to want to participate


how each of the festivals you have identified is funded?
one love -local authority funded, sponsored by kiss, the voice,
wireless -lottery funded, sponsored by barclaycard and others but doesn't show them
(NYIIFVF) - arts council funded,funded by a trust, sponsored by IDQ magazine

1.3 display the poster and complete the poster questions

1 How does the programme content of each of the festivals you have researched differ?

one love - reggae & drum n bass music festival

(NYIIFVF) new york - film & video festival

wireless - music festival


2 In what ways might the content be determined or influenced by the scale of the event?

one love- will influence reggae & drum n bass artists and music from famous artists like bob Marley this event will attract people from all other the country that enjoy reggae the income of a small festival like this wont be able to get big artists so due to this will only be able to hold a smaller event

(NYIIFVF) - will influence people interested in video and film its a big major international event where people all over the world will attend due to this being the largest film and video festival in the hole world it has a rather large income and famous people will attend due to the capacity of the event and its importance

wireless - will influence a world wide audience due to it being one of the largest international music events held in the UK and due to it being a very large event it attracts some big stars and also the land that the events holds capacity its large it can have thousands of people attending witch increases the amount of income

3 What have you noticed about the way in which different festivals focus on a single arts discipline or combine one or more?
festivals witch focus on single art are normally smaller than one that focus or more than one thing due to the capacity of each individual thing has its own limit of size due to health and safety (risk assessments) and if its got more that one discipline it will attract more that one specific target audience because it will attract a much larger range of people
