How can we provide advice for the Parish Walk in a fun and engaging way?
The Parish Walk is one of the most challenging events on the Isle of Man, requiring extensive preparation to complete the full 85 miles or even to participate without injury while enjoying the experience.
I had the opportunity to work with IFGL's communications team and Richard Gerrard, a five-time winner of the Parish Walk, to produce a script and coordinate an interview/video shoot. This project challenged me in setting up the camera, lighting, and green screen to ensure a professional production.
To clearly communicate my vision for the final video, I created a storyboard, which helped align the team and Richard Gerrard on the project’s direction. This collaboration resulted in a comprehensive and engaging video that highlights the importance of preparation for the Parish Walk.
Feedback on the video from the Parish Walk committee:
Elizabeth: "Absolutely brilliant. Funny but great to watch, with valid points covered. Great job, Richard!!"
Jock: "That's brilliant. Engaging, well put together, and it covers valid points in a fun way that will hopefully be taken on board by walkers and supporters. Richard is great!"
Ray Cox: "This looks good to me. I will send it on for the committee to view."
It was a great opportunity, and I truly enjoyed working on this brief.
