Todays events consist of...

Today was quite good, as the promotion team in this set up we have a fair amount of weight on our shoulders Eg we must decide and follow through with;

A theme

A name

Design for - Poster, Flyers, Ebursts, press releases, indoor promotion etc

Make a guest list

Write all content

Just to name a few, so within the group we've now split ourselves into two - a design team and a writing team. I'm in the writing team so we'll be handling the guest list, social media activity and written content for everything getting sent out - no pressure.

Next week we'll be presenting to the rest of our class our ideas and concepts, fingers crossed they like what they hear!

Team Work

The PAD Gallery

The Forum

So in todays lecture we were looking into locations, a couple of the suggested location are above.

Currently the PAD Gallery is closed, but as it's ran by the council they might be quite interested in working with us in this case! The coverage would be good to potentially get sponsers for the gallery too.

I was also thinking, theres an old mexican which is now shut near Tescos express and Warehouse, which might be a good space with nice big windows, but may have to look at it a bit more. Also what if we were to use the Atrium - it's university property, we have a kitchen we can use too. High ceilings, lots of lighting and we wont have to worry so much about leaving our work up like we would in a bar or somewhere. It would also be good to pull in industry people and Big wigs from the uni to remind them how strong the arts really are?!

We're now divided as a class too into our teams, I'm in the promotion team so should be good!

New Brief

As fourth years everything is stepping up at least 3 or 4 notches, and one of the briefs we have to complete is to organise an exclusive exhibition for our work. Working as a team we'll find a fantastic location in Preston and cause a storm with our work and of course the exciting open evening!

Lets see how well this theory pans out...Stay tuned.
