Cultural Conversations is a not for profit project and looks for sponsorship from third parties to fund its activities. See below for some sponsorship packages

If you would like to sponsor this project or an interview with your favorite eminent artist, please contact Dr. Bob Jansen, via email to discuss how you can best contribute.

We will consider any realistic proposal and work with you to determine the most effective way your sponsorship can be acknowledged.

INTERVIEW SPONSOR

Interview in English: from AU$1,000
Interview in Korean: KRW5,000,000

For an interview recorded in the Sydney region, costs start from $1,000. This covers everything from planning to publishing with us providing all resources.

If the interview takes place outside of the Sydney region, the costs would increase to cover travel and accommodation costs, as necessary.

Interstate interviews would be scheduled so as to record as many interviews as possible within a single visit to that state.

For this sponsorship, you:
* can nominate the eminent artist of your choice, acceptance is subject to agreement by the Selection Committee
* get acknowledgement on the interview that you have sponsored and on the project's acknowedgements page
* can attend the recording of your nominated artist's interview, subject to their approval (at your own costs)
* can place a link on your company's or your individual web page to your sponsored interview

The difference in cost between English and Korean is for the additional work of translating the transcript from Korean into English and the fact that transcription in English is fairly well automated whilst for Korean it remains a manual activity.
