Day 11: On the Fringe
Another day, another media visit. After a quick breakfast at the hotel, we took a walk over to visit the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society. This visit was very interesting for me for many reasons. Oliver Davis, the head of marketing and development, talked to us about the origins of the festival, what it means to […]
Day 10: On the Fringe… Festival
Waking up in Edinburgh was awesome. The old city’s architecture was so incredible but we had our last media day to take care of with a marketing director of the Fringe Festival. The Fringe Festival is one of the largest festival in the world and occurs 250 times across the world. Olly Davis came to […]
Day Ten: Edinburgh Fringe and WhiteSpace
Another uphill trek lead us to the first media visit of the day. Ollie Davis is Head of Marketing for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. It’s the largest arts festival in the world. It all started as rebellion toward the International Festival by 8 productions who turned up uninvited and performed on the fringes. This year, […]
Day 10: Take a Picture, It’ll Last Longer
After meeting so many professionals currently working in the media industry in the UK, today was the day we embarked on our final two visits of the trip. The first of the visits was with Ollie Davis from the Fringe Society. I found this visit to be very interesting because I learned just how hard […]
The Media Visits to End All Media Visits
Our last day of media visits was by far my favorite one despite having a think mustache of mucus and a chapped nose. I started my day in a little french bakery directly around the corner from the hotel where I had the world’s best eclair and flirted with the french barista, you could say […]
Day 10: Exploring Edinburgh
We started our day off this morning by getting breakfast at our hotel and preparing for our media visits. We walked to the French Embassy where we met with Ollie Davis from the Fringe Society, the charity that oversees the operation of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Ollie is the head of marketing for the group […]
Day Ten: This place isn’t real
It’s day two in Scotland and as I’m mentioned in my last blog post, I truly am not convinced that this is place is real. In describing Edinburgh to my friends, I’ve described it as “something out a storybook.” If you think of a old time town that’s extremely picturesque, you’re probably thinking of Edinburgh. […]
Day 10: I Finally Get a Scotch Egg
Today began with our final couple of media visits. First up was the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. We met with Oliver at the French Embassy on the Royal Mile and spoke with him at length about the history of the festival and what it takes to put on one like it. The Fringe Festival is a […]
A Magical Photography Day
More magic was made today along with many photos. The day started off at two lectures. One lecture was with David Anderson. David is a Scottish commercial photographer who mainly works with portraiture. However, he did not talk about his portraiture. He focused on an alcohol project he did for Shackleton. His photography is aesthetically […]
