Early today the Opera Warwick elections took place. Their recent productions have included Threepenny Opera and Riddigore. Following the success of Threepenny Opera, I have now been voted in the marketing manager for Opera Warwick! This will enable me to become more involved in the design of theatrical artwork and co-ordinating the publicity and advertising for the non-profit society.

After creating the design for the posters and leaflets for The Threepenny Opera, I became further involved with the show. I took the roles of Publicity Designer and Deputy Marketing Manager, as well as an Assistant Stage Manager.

In total, 400 posters and 10,000 flyers were distributed for the show, as well as viral marketing through Facebook and advertising using publicity events around University of Warwick and through the Warwick Students Union website. The opera was also featured in a number of newspapers and through the BBC.

The show turned out to be a huge success at Warwick Arts Centre, selling over 73% of the tickets to an audience largely made up of students, adding up to over £8,500 in ticket sales.

I would like to give my congratulations to all the cast and crew involved with the show who made the show the success that it was.

So, with a new website and identity, I thought it was about time I got some business cards printed! You can see the finished products in the picture below…

The cards were printed with Moo (www.moo.com), using recycled card and were delivered within just a few days. Custom artwork was designed and sent through their online ordering system.

I have now got round to creating a completely new and far fresher design for my website – it’s a bit more personal and I hope that everyone will like it.

There are still lots of holes and places where I need to put more work into, but I hope that for now there will be enough to keep everyone informed and hopefully also to keep people interested!

Please let me know what you think of the new site – feedback’s always appreciated!

We now have a blog which will keep you informed with the latest work that we have been doing, as well as some tutorials to guide with website and graphic design, and any other news from our design business. We hope you find it interesting!
