Off The Page

I was part of the PR team for the Off the Page exhibition. I had wanted to do the poster, but I thought that some other people had expressed interest so stepped back from it (a wrong move, no one else actually wanted to do the poster. I should have just gone for it) but I still enjoyed being on the PR team.

The ream was pretty big so we split into different sub-sections. Social Media, Poster design, Invites, Photography, Flyering etc. Me and Molly mostly did the social media side of things, where we documented people's work and showed snippets in the run up to the exhibition and reminders after the exhibition that work is still on at CMV.

This was a really good opportunity to  practice more professional social media, as I am active on personal social media but I definitely want to keep those two things separate because I'm a terrible person. We tried not to share all the images, or full images as we thought putting a full show of the images on facebook would discourage people from seeing the show because they would have already seen the art online. 

I think showing images of the framed prints, and everyone framing their prints etc. was good because it built a sense of anticipation for the exhibition.
