    For RAGE Recycled Art Exhibition – a new art exhibition in regional Victoria in 2026, I was engaged by the organisers for the following:

    • Overarching social media strategy
    • Set up of Meta accounts and Business Suite
    • Creation of a 7-month content plan
    • Content creation

    I spent two days filming key spokespeople in Euroa for two edited videos of each person. One series of videos is to engage artists to submit work, and another series for publishing in early 2026 to engage the wider community to visit the exhibition in April 2026.
