Week 13

Work Done 

This week, my main focus was preparing for the tabling event at ACE for The Revenant. I had help from: Rob, Adrienne, Kevin, Anthony, and Jack. I gathered stuff from the archive and made it look appealing and eye catching. I used the gibson holders we had left to display our DVDs and old programs - since we don't have our new ones yet. I also used an example of the swag bag just to draw people in. I also set up the step and repeat - which I don't think should be included anymore at co-sponsoring events. It's a lot of work to set up and no one used it at all. Once we went in and presented we took two t-shirts to throw out into the crowd. This was a great crowd pleaser! People loved it! I highly recommend it!! 

I think in the future Visions should sponsor more events with ACE. In fact, I think that we should try and sponsor more events with a lot of the groups on campus. I think it's an opportunity that Visions has missed for a while. Interacting with other groups could really help our reach and Visions awareness. I think involving ourselves in clubs, events, and places that our audience members love to go would be very beneficial to keeping Visions active in the minds of our audience. 

As a grassroots company, it's important to connect personally with the people we try to reach. As a small staff and a relatively small school, it would be good for us to utilize our personable staff members to send at least two staff members to events that correlate with our mission. I think in the future it would be a good idea to send ambassadors to all art events in the wilmington area - it might be even a good idea to create a position within the marketing department to create and follow up with a schedule of the events that correlate with our mission and have a staff sign up sheet where people must go to events and take pictures.
