1. Press
Thanks to Claire Will for all her help with this!
Two things:
we will need to get press releases and contacts sorted for the launch itself; and
will be (CAN willing) using the Lantern Parade as a photo opportunity / press opportunity for the SSF.
So need to get two press releases written –
one as a photo opportunity, done in conjunction with CAN
one as straight press release.
Also: write letters to the Star. They print them! But best if not as an actual member of the SSF… ‘What Sheffield needs is more people like that lovely SSF lot I met the other day…’
We now have a list of contacts for papers and radio, which will need following up.
As regards the ‘photo opportunity’, there are two things to do:
1. the ‘photo opportunity’ press release to:
Dennis.lound@sheffieldnewspapers.co.uk
(Might be lounds)
He’s in charge of the photographic dept. for Sheffield Newspapers – which means Star, Telegraph and Yorkshire Post.
Also, Chris Lawton, photographer for Yorkshire Post. He’s also based at Sheffield office.
Chris.lawton@ypn.co.uk
2. If someone has a 300dpi (at least) digital camera, we can take our own photos and send them in as a photo opp, if no journo / photographers turn up to Lantern festival themselves.
Send this to the newsdesk.
List of contacts and associated deadlines: I'll post this up shortly - I don't have access to the e-mail with the details in at the moment!
FOLLOW UP LAUNCH – let the press know what happened on the day; try to get press to come along and speak to people. Connecting Sheffield to Mumbia could be an idea.
2. Posters and Flyers
Get posters and flyers to the following:
People we have contacted – post them or drop them off.
At least a selection of the places on the list that Claire gave us -
This is:
A list of all places that WILL take flyers. Should save us a lot of time!
And of course, get ‘em pasted up.
TWO TYPES OF POSTER:
1. The ones Kev’s doing 2. One that’s a simple black n white motif, that can then be blown up to A2 and combined with a stencil (that matches the printed motif / text) and spray paint – to make for posters that really stand out around town!
Stencils / subvertising – there’s of course also the option of using this to spread the word.
