We where asked to put together a presentation where we would present the idea of the festival, what it includes, and how we where planning to organise it. Together me and Daphne prepared a short presentation where we mainly focused on emphasizing the advantages the whole exhibition would benefit from if this festival is held.
After we had a structure for the booklet we began to gather the content that would go inside the booklet. When we had all the content I designed an 8 page booklet so that to be able to present our ideas in a professional way so that companies would be motivated to sponsor us.
Design of booklet Together we worked to come up with three different sponsor packages that will be included in the sponsorship proposal so that companies will be able to choose which level of marketing they want through the package they agree to.
- Grey package €150
- Blue package €350
- White package €500
Also in the meantime we where passed on the poster for the call for bands and musicians which Daphne and I discussed together. We had some comments for improvement:
Daphne and I started to outline the structure of the contents of the sponsorship booklet. The booklet will have different subheadings that will explain different areas of the exhibition.
Subheadings till now:
This week we began discussing particular elements regarding the festival.
We made a list of food and beverages vendors that we should contact in order to see if they might be interested in setting up a stand at our exhibition festival:
Apart from being food vendors they would also be part of our festival sponsorship, as we where discussing that we might offer them a deal where they rent the area per square metre they will be going to use. We also discussed how we are going to call for small bands/musicians (from school or upcoming bands) that are willing to perform at the festival. We informed the brand department that we will be needing a poster which will be distributed around the school so that people would know that we are looking for interested bands. We also thought of sharing the poster of the school's Facebook page so that the call go beyond the school grounds. Together we prepared the content for this poster, to pass it on to the brand department that will be preparing the poster for us. Poster Content
Inspiration We started out by defining all the elements we need to take care in order to be able to organize the festival. We made a whole list of every aspect and also started brainstorming about some fundraising ideas so that to be able to collect funds in order to pay the bands, as we don't really know how much funds are going to be allocated to the festival from the school.
Our aim is to ensure that people know that this will not be a one time thing and are encouraged to visit the school exhibition on other days. So we are proposing a 3-day musical festival in conjunction to the usual art experience.
Our aim is to express feeling through sound. The aim of this festival is to promote young students into the world of music, and showcase different artistic talent. The idea is to add more value to the usual exhibition that takes place. We where told which ideas where chosen for the execution of the exhibition design from the presentations we had done in Semester 1 where in groups we proposed different ideas for the end of year exhibition. From our proposed idea which revolved around the idea of a TRIP several ideas where chosen which we where really happy about such as: the festival, cloud + idea feedback, water bottle freebie, oculus rift PR Stunt, and the app for the wayfinding system.
As the departments needed for the execution of the exhibition where listed we all had to choose under which department we where going to work. Since our festival idea was chosen, Daphne and myself decided to be responsible for the organization of the festival itself, so our roles are part of the Project Management/Organization and Fundraising. |
