Digital Magazine Producer and Editor
-
Feb 2014 - Jun 2014
In association with the Bigshot Media television production team I have produced four digital magazines for the Tankwa Trek, Trans Karoo and Sani2c mountain bike races. The concept began with the post-Tankwa Trek magazine and was refined for the Trans Karoo where we produced a digital magazine for the pre-race briefing and a post-race magazine. The concept was then pitched to Nedbank and a post-race publication was produced for Sani2c and distributed to all 3 600 entrants of the Sani2c Trail, Adventure and Race. Show less
