Brief • Metal is an arts not for profit charity. All income is put into projects with artists or young people or hard to reach groups (i.e. those with mental health issues). • Their marketing promotion aim: • Counter misinformation by demonstrating their real ethos and facts as opposed to rumours and chinesewhispers. • Promote projects that are both on-going (i.e. Netpark, VG, TNG, VB, Estuary, WOWIE, Clever Essex) and things done in the past. • Identify the audience that needs to be addressed. • Work out and utilise the best media to reach the audience.
Things to Push / Counter • Audience. Aged 20-45 who wants to support artists and community projects. Attract to training events and performance festivals. • Real Ethos • Not for profit charity • Helps artists, the young and those with mental health issues. • Misinformation: • Oppose negative rumours and chinese whispers by providing facts about social causes, and who and how they have helped, and how much of every £ is spent on what type of thing - Blog • Push • Community Projects i.e. Netpark, VG, TNG, VB, Estuary, WOWIE, Time and space residencies, Clever Essex • Things that have been done in the past.
Good and Bad at the Moment • Metal has a good reputation for arranging quality family art and performance events to allow local people to be more aware and become involved in social issues. • The public probably do not know they carry out building restoration to provide support to artists. • It is not clear what the company name ‘Metal’ refers to. • Metal like to blend their logo into the branding of the artist who is performing. • The name and logo are not easily recognised or recognisable. • I think the green on grey colour scheme may appeal to younger people but not all. • Jude and her connection with South Bank should be highlighted.
One Suggestion • Wristbands • Decorative often worn and used as event passes identification • During and after the event acts as collective identity • Shows their support for the event and any social cause • The cost to make these is low. • People usually willing to pay extra as a donation or pay extra for a higher quality
Because of the organisations ethos and image, the colours should be vibrant, warm and engaging. Red and Purple (Active and Deep), Orange / Yellow (Growth, Instinct / Warmth)
