Projects
- The BBC Pandemic appIn 2017, I co-ordinated the launch of the BBC Pandemic app, as part of a citizen science experiment for a science documentary. The project was produced by 360 Production Ltd, in partnership with the University of Cambridge and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, app developers Big Motive, and was commissioned by BBC Four. The project required me to conduct a marketing and social media campaign, without any BBC branding, meaning I had to build a huge network of science institution
Projects credited in
- Channel 4's Random ActsIn 2016 Channel 4 relaunched its short film platform Random Acts, both online and with its own TV show presented by Eric Wareheim. I worked in a very small team headed by Pegah Farahmand to create a new identity and website, curate the digital platform, establish brand partnerships and create a social presence. We also set up a ‘First Acts’ category which enables young aspiring directors to access funding & mentorship to create their first short.
