Outline
I. Introduction: The music industry.
In this section of my paper, I will provide an introduction to the music industry. I will primarily use information from Modern Music and After by Paul Griffiths and The Music Business and Recording Industry: Delivering Music in the 21st Century by
Geoffrey Hull et. al. I will also include some facts from the RIAA website and The Economic and Employment Impact of the Arts and Music Industry, a government document. I will also include a few important introductory questions that I will answer throughout my paper.
A. Quick overview of the transfer of power in the music industry over time.
The main point that I would like to make here is that, before recording technology became widespread, the power of the industry was in the hands of the musicians. Live performances were the only way to make their music known. When recording and listening technology became widely available, the record companies took over the power. In today’s digital age of the industry, the power has been transferred into the hands of the consumers.
B. Statistics about the change in music sales over time.
These statistics will lead into my opposing view. Music sales increased heavily all the way through the 1980s and, since then, sales have declined drastically. Many believe that these statistics prove the ultimate failure of the music industry.
C. Thesis statement broken down into sentences.
This part of the introduction will present the opposing view that the music industry will fail, followed by my view that the music industry will continue to endure.
II. How have musicians made money in the
B. The Copyright Act of 1906 and the Copyright Act of 1976.
These two acts began the protection of intellectual property. In this portion of my paper, I will discuss how copyright laws led to musicians gaining
income from the use of their protected works.
C. How did musicians make money when physical record sales began?
My previous discussion of the copyright laws will lead into this section.
Here I will discuss the difference between mechanical royalties and publishing royalties, both of which can come from record sales. I will also discuss performance royalties, which became a big part of an artist’s income when radio play became widespread.
III. How has the music industry made money in the past?
This section will be basically the same as the previous section but from the perspective of the industry instead of the perspective of the artist. The same sources will apply. Understanding the ways in which the industry as a whole makes a profit and how they have changed over the years, instead of just the artists’ profits, is essential for predicting the future of the industry.
A. Was there even a music “industry” before recorded music?
In this section I will discuss the other major players in music besides artists in the years before recorded music became available.
B. Live performance venues and merchandise.
Live performance venues have changed significantly, from huge concert halls, to clubs and bars, to sports arenas. These venues, including their promoters and the booking agents that they work with, make up a huge portion of the music industry. They make money primarily from ticket sales and food and drink sales during events.
C. The record company’s cut in record sales.
In this section, I will continue my discussion of mechanical royalties and will begin to discuss the ownership of sound recordings and masters. I will
also discuss the relationship between publishing companies and record companies and introduce a concept called cross-collateralization.
IV. How are musicians making money today?
This section is where the sources about the new digital millennium will come into play. The Music Business and Recording Industry: Delivering Music in the 21st Century will still apply in this section. The only sources I will not have used after this section are Music Industry Braces for the Unthinkable from The New York Times and An Introduction To Music Technology by Daniel Hosken. This section’s purpose is to prove that the industry went through a rough change in the new millennium, and, even though sales are down, artists are always finding new ways to make profits.
A. Live performances and merchandise.
With record sales at an all-time low, musicians today rely more heavily on live performances for a source of income. Artists are not only paid by venues to perform, but merchandise sales are a massive portion of an artist’s income today.
B. Streaming (YouTube, Spotify, Internet Radio).
This section will discuss the important, though minimal, income that the digital age of the industry has provided for musicians. Although at first the
industry struggled to control the online stream of music, legislation was eventually passed to protect the use of artists’ copyrighted works.
C. Digital sales (iTunes, CD Baby, Amazon).
While artists tend to make less money off of digital sales than physical sales, digital albums and singles are cheaper for consumers. While iTunes and Amazon tend to have the vast majority of the market share, there are also many other online music distributors. Artists make money from every
sale, even though it is not technically a “physical” sale. The industry has so far caught up with the Internet to keep digital sales under control.
V. How is the music industry making money today?
Every one of my sources will have something to contribute to this section. This section’s purpose is to prove that, not only are the artists finding ways to cope with the digital millennium, but the industry as a whole is as well. It is the last piece of the music industry puzzle that I will bring together before I can draw my conclusion.
A. Live performance venues.
With record sales declining, live performance has become a massive part of the artist’s income, therefore creating a huge demand for venues. The
need for touring produces jobs in promotion and booking, all of which contribute to the success of the industry.
B. The role of the record company in today’s market.
Many people believe that, with the rise in home recording equipment, there is no need for record companies. It is true that, with the correct
equipment, anyone can have their very own home recording studio. This concept is becoming more and more popular every day. Record companies
provide services, however, that many people do not realize. Primarily, they provide funds and expert advice and help to artists for top of the line
equipment, recording engineers, hiring studio musicians, and tour support.
C. Digital distributors and Internet radio.
While retail distributors have taken somewhat of a hit, digital distributors such as iTunes and Amazon have taken advantage of the digital revolution. Not only do these companies keep consumers buying music, but they also make it easy for any and all artists to make their music available to the public.
VI. Conclusion: The music industry will continue to endure.
In my conclusion, I will restate a few important points from the previous sections in order to lead into my thesis statement, which has changed slightly since I submitted the assignment weeks ago.
A. Quick review of important points from sections II – V.
This section will restate some important points from sections II – III in order to concisely begin to lead into my thesis.
B. Concession to opposing views and quick proof of my view.
This section will include a concession that some opposing views may have a good argument. Following the concession, I will quickly prove why I
believe that the music business will prevail. This concession and proof will lead into my thesis to end my paper.
C. Thesis Statement: While sales are down and many believe that the music industry will fail, artists and other professionals who depend on the industry
will continue to find new ways to keep the industry alive.

A portrait of the Artist as a young man by James Joyce
Essay on A portrait of the Artist as a young man by James Joyce
According to Hugh Kenner in your Joyce text, “Stephen is not hateful, though he is irritating when he is being put forth by the massed proprietors of the Joyce Legend as an authentic genius. Considered as a genius, he is a tedious cliché, weary, disdainful, sterile… ” (360). Using specific references to the text, analyze whether Stephen is the hero he presents himself as, or something less. Be sure to review and cite from your Joyce text’s “Joyce’s Portrait—A Reconsideration” as part of your analysis of the novel. Kenner, Hugh. “Joyce’s Portrait—A Reconsideration.” A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. Ed. John Paul Riquelme. New York: W. W. Norton, 2007. 348–61.

Internet profiles are a private right and therefore should be off-limits for an employer to access (Even if set as searchable, public profiles) during the interview stage.
Internet profiles are generally public access and therefor fit within the “small town” presumption; allowing a reasonable assumption that employers might access it’s content and subsequently use the information as basis for discrimination during the hiring process.
Your stance should come from the background of whether you understand social media accounts to be public or private domain, and whether or not access to such content is akin to the kind of access to information an employer would have in an in-person interview with a candidate.

Bronzite, Dan. “The Hero’s Journey–Mythic Structure of Joseph Campbell’s Monomyth.” Movie Outline (2017).
The article above was published in 2017 but had no previous versions. The information provided is current to my study, especially considering that the article summarizes the steps in Campbell’s hero’s journey from the mythology book “A Hero with a Thousand Faces.” The information in this source is of the essence to my paper since it enables the building of my argument, which is, Beowulf is an example of the heroic cycle and the hero’s journey. Although I considered other sources, I found this to be elementary to my paper since the content of the article relates directly to my argument. The source is also suitable for a research paper since it helps build on the literature of myths and mythological theories. Further, the article essentially details the traditional three-act structure common to modern films while contrasting it against Campbell’s Monomyth theory.
The article’s author is Dan Bronzite, an accredited screenwriter. Dan has commissioned numerous feature scripts and written many specs. Also, two of the short films Dan has directed are award-winning with Dan having made significant contributions to the Script Magazine. Additionally, Dan’s experience with script writing and study of myths makes him a suitable critique of “Star Wars” in the context of mythology. The reliability of Dan’s article is the reference of scenes from the reviewed movie and Campbell’s book. The verification of these references is through watching the movie. Therefore, Dan effectively presents his objective perspective that heroes in films follow the same mythic structure that Campbell developed.
Campbell, Joseph. The hero with a thousand faces. Vol. 17. New World Library, 2008.
The original publication of the book was in 1949 while the revised version in 1968. However, there was a third version published in 1968. The information embedded in the book is current to my topic since it provides the blueprint of the original story I intend to explore in my paper. The book offers a description of the power and ability of the myth in transcending spiritual perspective, gender, culture, place and time. In this regard, the author employs the journey of the adventurous hero in developing various themes. In this regard, the source proves to be of the essence in developing my topic, which is, discussing Beowulf as an example of the heroic cycle and the hero’s journey. The source was my first consideration in building my paper since its information is at an appropriate level; that is, it serves as the primary source document for my work. I would use this source for a research paper since the author explores the theoretical context of mythological narratives in terms of structure.
Joseph Campbell is the author of the book. Campbell is renowned as a notable American mythologist and philosopher whose work has appealed to many contemporary artists, writers, and scholars. The employed mythological and philosophical qualifications and experiences of Campbell are crucial in the development of the content of the book. Alongside this, Campbell draws ideas from renowned theorists in developing his heroic model including the works of Freud Jung, James Joyce, and Heinrich Zimmer. In his book, Campbell persuades the readers that mythological narratives have a similar structure.
Gordon, Andrew. “Star wars: a myth for our time.” Screening the Sacred. Routledge, 2018. 73-82.
The publication of this source was in 2018. However, the information contained in this version of the book is slightly updated. The reprinted version proves to be of paramount significance in terms of providing current information for my paper. I find the information in this source relevant to my topic since it examines Campbell’s thesis that epic mythical heroes are dream-figure that liberate or offer salvation to the entire culture through a series of events (hero’s journey). The source exhibits a deep resonance and reinforcement for its audience through the archetypal situations and characters as well as multiple cross-references that provide emotional conventions. The book presents “Star Wars” in a traditional mythical patter in light of Campbell’s argument. Therefore, I may consider the source for a research paper since it provides a modern context of traditional mythical patterns.
The source is authored by Andrew Gordon who is both an American professor and writer. Gordon is renowned for his insightful talks on topics related to film, literature and science fiction. Therefore, the source embeds theories of mythology as derived from Campbell, which are relatable. Further, Gordon’s commentary on Star Wars in the context of mythology is attributable to his prolonged study of myth and determination to examine how films meet mythic criteria. The reliability of Gordon’s content is the fact that the author cross-references Campbell’s book and the Star Wars with high accuracy. Also, the source is free from typographical errors in its attempt to present Star Wars in a mythical adventurous pattern. Gordon uses this source to inform that the heroes in films meet mythological patterns.

Throughout the course, we have been talking a lot about ethnographic research. As we all know, this is the type of research Duneier used to write Sidewalk. Now, you will be given a change to get out of your chair, and take a stab at this type of research yourself!
Step 1: Move to a place where you can easily observe a groups of people interacting. You can choose a scenario where you are also part of the group (like Duneier) but you should be transparent about this in your reporting/field notes.
Step 2: Get out a notebook, and take field notes on what people are saying/doing for a minimum of 20 minutes. Yes, you really have to do this part! Taking field notes can be exhausting, especially if you are transcribing! I really want you to have the experience of a sociologist in the field.
Step 3: Take your notes back home, and consider the following:
What type of group was observed (dyad, tryad, etc)?
Was the level of group cohesion high? low? How could you tell?
Was there a group leader present? How did you know? If so, what type of authority did they demonstrate?
How were decisions made within the group? Who seemed to have the power?
What other facets of group dynamics were present?
Step 4: Write a description of your findings, highlighting the prompts above. Your submission should be a minimum of 300 words, and clearly demonstrate an understanding of this week’s reading. You must cite your sources (the textbook) and attach your field notes for full credit.
