Election post
I'm Sam and I've been interim creative director for the last few weeks.
In this time, I've worked on typesetting 7 articles in a 2 week timespan, creating illustrations for articles, designing the official Media Kit & liaising with other societies to organise art events, like the upcoming collab with Free Hype - I can't wait to do more throughout the year as your official creative director!
I love being creative, with a long standing love for art and digital design, I have worked as a designer for The London Culture Review magazine since Feb ‘24. Through this, as well as my experiences planning events for my high school club like bake sales & school takeovers, I got to understand what it is like working in a team & became a better collaborator.
I’m organised & understand that coordinating so many moving parts to create a cohesive magazine issue is difficult, and I am committed to actively communicating with participating members to ensure that your experience is as smooth as possible. These skills will also find their use in planning art-based events like illustration workshops and art socials.
If elected I would:
- Meet set deadlines.
- Plan more art related socials
- Collaborate with other societies for events - Sip/snack & paint socials & illustration workshops to offer more support to our artists.
- Encourage more communication between the components of the magazine to streamline the production process.
- Homogenise formatting rules for the CDs for a more consistent magazine look.
