Flyering/marketing

We finally got the flyers printed on the 21st February, scarily close to the date of the event! But we managed to get quite a few around buildings such as Geoffrey Manton, the All Saints library and John Dalton. If we could of had more time we would have been able to flyer a lot more, which would of been a massive help to the marketing side of things. Having to rely on social media so heavily was a shame.

I met today with Kaitlin, Craig Horner and Karen Moore to discuss progress and to co-ordinate with what is allowed to be used in terms of copyright of logos. We met actually at the Peoples History Museum, which made a nice change as it was good to actually picture where things would be in terms of tables etc. This is especially the case as I noticed things like the blackboard that I'd like to use to put the itinerary on and the projector in the foyer that could be used for the North West Film Archive clips.
It was really useful to speak to Karen about what I am alright to tweet and blog about, rather than stepping on any ones toes.
It was also good to meet as Karen thought of the details that I hadn't thought of, like how many tables and chairs will be needed.

Today we met with Craig Horner, Milly and Kaitlin to discuss how to promote the event and to generally catch up on progress. 

Milly is arranging for the poster to be displayed on the Corridor Manchester and the Geoffrey Manton screen, which will be a valuable free resource of advertisement. Also, myself and Kaitlin spoke to Deborah Green at MMU and discussed getting notifications on moodle and emails sent around to tell students about the event, she also agreed to help out with funding of printing of posters and leaflets.
Deborah green suggested adding an MMU logo onto any posters or leaflets that are left around in Uni as to not be taken down by cleaners etc.
