Week 5: Assignment 1; Brand Strategy by Fire

(Team - add any of the pages of the Brand Strategy notes or anything more)

Develop a ‘belief’ for the festival, this is why they exist. Often it should start with ‘We believe…'

We believe that Cuba Dupa is an inclusive, community-based festival which the whole family can enjoy and explore how multicultural and artistic Wellington is.


Uncover the Problem/Challenge/Opportunity they’re facing. Be distinctive. Uncover an insight or human truth 

That people want to feel that a space or event is catered to them, they want to feel important. 


Identify 1–2 key audiences. These aren’t the people who are most likely to go to the festival. They’re the audience(s) who the festival should reach to address its Problem/Challenge/Opportunity

People with young/restless children, people who aren't very artsy, people outside wellington, people in the wellington suburbs

Week 2: Assignment 1; My Wellington

(Team - Add your "My Wellingtons" with descriptions below)

I see wellington as a startling contrast between nature and man-made. I live near the botanic gardens, so I see more nature than most people in Wellington and feel it is an essential part of Wellington's culture and vibe. Also I took this photo myself. - India Jack
