Writing and Associate Producing for Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival
Outside Lands is the largest independent music and arts festival in the US, with 200,000 attendees over 3 days in San Francisco.
I've been fortunate to work on it a couple of times now.
Most recently I worked as Writer & Associate Producer on the official live stream on Twitch (sponsored by Levi’s and M&M’s), which attracted nearly 6 million views. I worked both remotely in New York in the lead-up to the festival, and on-site in San Francisco.
My duties included:
-
Researching and recommending artists to feature via performance and/or interview on the Twitch live stream
-
Collaborating on live show creative packages with creative director and executive producer
-
Pre-scripting live stream comments in the voice of Outside Lands and the two festival mascots
-
Writing supers, daily scripts, and artist interview outlines for live stream hosts and special guests
-
Monitoring and writing in the live stream chat as the voice of Outside Lands and the two festival mascots
I also worked on a previous iteration of the festival as a Copywriter with their partner agency Superfly.
My duties in this role included:
-
Writing copy for social media channels (Instagram, Facebook and Twitter), email marketing, the official website and more
-
Working with brand managers, social media managers, project managers and designers
-
Drawing on my deep knowledge of music and marketing to write entertaining and engaging copy for interactive social media posts
-
Delivering copy to briefs and deadlines
-
Populating the editorial calendar
-
Working with tone of voice guidelines to ensure brand consistency across all marketing collateral
