I created a company, Nicolas Laurent Publishing, which takes care of publishing my albums. My associative label Broadway Of Life, which promotes solidarity through the disciplines of live performance, takes care of the management of my promotion (clips, concerts, merchandising) in order to perpetuate the company Nicolas Laurent Publishing.

The money raised will allow me to record my second album, Les Origines Du Mal, which is already fully written and composed, but above all to produce the first promotional clip of the latter.

BREAKDOWN OF THE CROWDFUNDING BUDGET

From € 1,000 we will be able to distribute the first album.

From € 1,500 we will be able to finance the merchandising.

From € 4,500 we will be able to finance the clip of the single Mieux Que Moi (single already recorded from the second album).

The organization of the concerts will be supported by the associative label Broadway Of Life, regardless of the results of the crowdfunding.

NEW CLIP FOR A NEW ALBUM

My second album, "Les Origines Du Mal", mixes classical and technological music, in order to deal with, under a mystical and fantastic appearance, the subjects of ambition, power, and the need to exist in the eyes of others that reigns in our current societies. This second album is being recorded. "Les Origines Du Mal" represents a first chapter, after the foundations laid by my first album "La Galerie Des Anonyme". The album's first single, "Mieux Than Moi", has already been fully recorded. This single addresses the need for the gaze of others through the appearance of influencers on platforms such as Instagram.

THE FIVE-POINT CLIP PROJECT !!

1) FIRST CLIP SCRIPT

The clip of Mieux Que Moi wishes to show the excesses of social networks by creating a re-adaptation of the myth of Narcissus, featuring a young woman adored in front of an audience of people whose faces are covered by mirror masks.

The public represents social networks : the absence of a face is a metaphor for the anonymity that reigns over them, while the mirrors symbolize the reflection that Internet users give us on ourselves and on our actions. The clip also includes playback shots by Nicolas Laurent, with aesthetic tableau to enhance this dystopian universe.

The background for the clip will be a magnificent villa with a swimming pool (located in Menton, France) : the story takes place outside by day on warm yellow hues for the first part of the song, and by night indoors on red and blue-violet hues for the second part. We will play with neon lights to stylize and create a slightly anxiety-provoking party atmosphere.

2) TECHNICAL DETAILS

We would need a total of € 2,500 in order to be able to complete the budget for the clip. These € 2,500 will be used to move the team (the location of the filming being in Menton), to cover meals, accommodation and travel expenses. This budget also includes the payment of the main actress (whose role is that of an influencer), the directors, the make-up artist, the purchase of part of the costumes and accessories (in particular the "mirror masks" of the other actors), and the rental of neon light equipment.

3) ESTIMATIONS FOR THE BUDGET OF THE CLIP

- Travel costs : € 800

MY BIOGRAPHY

Author, composer, singer, dancer, actor, musician and publisher, at 21, Nicolas Laurent is a complete artist.

Revealed by the original songs of the musical Un Été 44 (composed by artists appreciated by the public such as Charles Aznavour or Jean-Jacques Goldman) Nicolas Laurent had the privilege of playing the first male role of the show, alongside Barbara Pravi, four times a week from November 2016 to March 2017 at the Comedia of Paris. Only 17 years old, he was able to charm spectators from all over France thanks to his role as a young resistance member from Normandy.

He has played since the first roles in several shows, including the musical What The Femmes of the company Slash Art. In parallel with his studies at the University College of Sciences Po Paris, Nicolas Laurent began to compose his own songs. Inspired by pop culture and American Musicals, Nicolas Laurent's songs mainly present his reflections on the great subjects of his generation, in a cinematographic universe.

Thanks to his many experiences, Nicolas Laurent created the music publishing company Nicolas Laurent Publishing, as well as his own association label Broadway Of Life, a label that promotes solidarity through the disciplines of live performance.

His first album, "La Galerie Des Anonyme", is scheduled for May 2021. This multicolored album looks back on the journey of a young musical comedy singer who use characters to sing. But this album also offers a second, more implicit reading angle. All the characters portrayed in this "anonymous gallery" are indeed allegories of different political or social phenomena (terrorism, immigration, loss of local culture, coronavirus...).
