{ The Covid-19 Pandemic }
Going through various lockdown phases between 2020 and 2022, the entertainment industry was put on hold.
After the first lockdown ended in August 2020, the goverment announed new guidelines. Following the guidelines a plan was developed using metal barriers that split attendees into parties of six, this allowed people to remain socially distanced whilst being able to enjoy the event safely.
1 month later, the government announced new guidelines that eventually led the country back into a second lock down putting events on hold until summer 2021.
After nearly a years wait. Transmission Funk long awaited return happened at the Progress Centre in front of 700 attendees.
{ Rebrand }
After returning from living in Barcelona. I was unsure whether I wanted to carry on promoting events. After some discussions with friends, I decided to work on a rebrand for Transmission Funk.
Having full control behind the rebrand allowed me to have the freedom of how I wanted the brand to look and be represnted goig into 2023. It also allowed me to develop the rebrand on a low budget as there were no external costs.
Displayed below is the rebreand marketing campaing for the 2023 season.
{ The End }
At the end of 2023, I decided it was time to say goodbye after 9 amazing years, learning so many life skills along the way.
I've since taken a hiatus from music and events, whilst I put my focus into other things I want to acheive this year. Although plans for future creative projects will always be in the back of my mind.
