Re-imagining the Catalog
Inspired by the vision of Phil Lacey, the company’s new Artistic Director, A Great Idea embraced the challenge to reflect and update the perception of the Gilbert & Sullivan Library of wit, wisdom, and wildness for new audiences. A Great Idea brought forward a rich palette and made intentional references to the political climates (on and offstage) through the key art‘s poster design.
The Outtake, Sort Of
Sometimes, it is insightful to see the alternative choices, and we share this one because our partner asked A Great Idea to produce materials for an A/B test of creative. We love this, when it's possible, to better gauge how stories and visuals connect with audiences. A Great Idea created an alternate campaign that ran on social media to support ticket sales so we could better target future campaigns.
These services from A Great Idea include the following:
What do you need from us to start?
Coming to us with an idea is a great start! If you have clear goals, a defined audience, brand materials, or inspiration, that can help too. In our initial discovery phase, we’ll clarify if we need any additional materials before getting to work.
Can you work with our existing brand guidelines?
Absolutely! We tend to work within existing brand guidelines. This helps ensure your materials feel like an extension of your brand.
Why is brand identity important?
A strong brand identity makes you stand out from others, makes it easy for people to recognize you, and builds trust. It shows what you stand for, what you’re trying to do, and how you’re going about that in a way that connects with your community.
Can you print materials?
While we don’t do in-house printing, we can help you get your materials printed! This includes having final printed materials sent to you or printed near you for pickup. In the design process, we ensure your files are prepared to be sent to printers by ensuring correct sizing, bleeds, and file packaging.
How do I measure the success of my awareness campaign?
Success varies based on your goals for the campaign. At the beginning of our collaboration, we will define our shared metrics of success. This can include anything from uptake of a hashtag to signups for your event! We set up digital awareness campaigns to be trackable—that way, we can collect analytics that evaluate campaign success to inform your future strategy.
