~ Event/Experiential/Creative Producer
A. Rose LinkedIn
I pair organization with creative to bring (sometimes very complicated) projects to life on-time and in-budget. For studios, brands, media companies, and anyone in & out of the inbetween. In the last year I’ve also done private events in people’s homes, one-off one-day events, a press junket, even a wedding! When it comes to experiential branded or marketing events, a lot of times my clients haven’t done anything exactly like what they’re envisioning before. That’s one of my favorite jumping off points. 😎
I believe it’s important to understand a client’s goals and all realities when bringing experiential/events to life, but it’s also important to also push the creative as far as it can possibly go so that it’s not only successful from a brand perspective but also suuuuper rad and memorable for attendees. End philosophical digi soap box mini rant. (or mini rant to be continued over coffee… ? 😜 )
🌹 There are a few ways you can hire me! 🌹
Day-of production support example:
Studio premiere of scripted TV show @ a hotel in WeHo/Beverly Hills - 2020
Event had ~ 3 elements: red carpet, screening & after-party
Oversaw build of S&R (Step & Repeat), lighting & sound rentals and red carpet install & strike
Managed changeover between screening and after-party to ensure everything prepped to stay seamless/on-time from a guest perspective
Liaison for press and guest check-in and helped flow guests between the different elements
Liaison between event logistics/vendors and client
Full-service prep, execution and wrap example:
Budget creation
I <3 Excel
Venue management
Work with the venue to discern what is avail to use and where we need to fill in with rentals / source elsewhere
Manage communication with venue for their needs/deadlines
Day-of venue contact for things that need to be moved, tweaked, etc.
Vendor quotes and management through prep, live date and payment/invoicing/wrap
Step & Repeat/Graphic & scenic print needs
Lighting for Step & Repeat
Security & Staffing (Brand Ambassadors or Event Staff)
Catering (Food & Drink)
Furniture/Decor Rentals
Insurance and permitting
Operations staff
AV - content creation or additional sound rentals
Creative development of event collateral
Work with design team and print vendors to ensure things like S&R, tickets, programs, etc are designed and sent to printers on-time
Direct creative development of decor and rentals and event elements - if you need decks or help with research I can also build creative presentations to help with internal approvals
Guest list - if additional support is needed for filling the house, especially for screenings this is something I can help with whether it's pinging my own networks or using official fan-fill
AV elements - work with client to get any video or audio content set up and QC'd so it runs seamlessly on event day
For example, I helped as a Technical Director for a studio premiere in 2019 at the Arclight Cinerama Dome for a scripted show, liaising between the studio’s content team and the Arclight projectionist
