Recently I designed a poster for Staten Island cover band Screaming Broccolli to hang in their upcoming venues. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.
On a totally unrelated note, I was also asked to speak at an upcoming COAHSI event with fellow SI filmmaker Geoff Celis. I’m pretty excited both because Geoff is pretty awesome and it will be my first venture into social media expertdom.
This is the text that will be included in the COAHSI newsletter:
Alternative Marketing Strategies for Arts Organizations
Richmondtown Library, 200 Clarke Avenue
Monday, November 1st, 6:00-7:30pm
Have you found that membership and audience numbers have decreased in the last few years? Are flyers and print marketing pieces just not doing the trick anymore? Join guests Christopher Olivieri and Geoffrey Celis to talk about different marketing strategies that could work for your arts organization. Christopher Olivieri is the co-creator of Dog and Pony Show, an online media group focused on web production. DogAndPonyShowWebsite.com amasses 60,000+ visits per month without using a single traditional marketing method. Geoffrey Celis is the founder of Starview Productions, a company that has been a meeting ground for artists to collaborate and produce videos, as well as a co-founder of SIColab and host of Staten Island’s Open Film Night. To RSVP, contact Ginger Shulick at x1004
Speaking of social media expertdom, last week Carlo and I were interviewed by WNYC’s Veralyn Williams and her Radio Rookies protege Brianna. We talked about Blogging, Facebook, DAPS and Internet Culture. It was a lot of fun, I look forward to hearing the final cut of the interview in January.
Finally, my blogging career which has put me in first degree contact with my Favorite Director has now allowed me to spend some quality time with my favorite band. On Thursday, August 19th I was privileged to do coverage at Less Than Jake’s Rocks Off concert cruise.
