Responsibilities

Founded in 2018, Fringe of Colour is a multi-award-winning initiative dedicated to supporting People of Colour at arts festivals in Scotland and beyond. Their hybrid arts festival, Fringe of Colour Films, celebrates the creative work of people in Scotland and around the world, through online streaming, in-person screenings, and a podcast series.

This project involved developing visually captivating promotional materials such as posters, billboards, and digital program that reflect the festival’s diversity and themes developed from the orignal poster. Collaborating closely with the festival board to ensure cohesive branding and impactful visual storytelling.

In-Person audiences were welcomed to enter the festival through the bright, capacious doors of one of Edinburgh’s most historic art spaces – the one and only Summerhall. This as well as support from Jackarts allowed for city wide billboard advertising. With multiple screening rooms, wheelchair and reduced mobility access, stunning architecture and an abundance of good café and bar spaces, Summerhall provided a beautiful home for the festival and it’s audiences.

Spanning a week the festival ran for a week at Summerhall, Edinburgh and online.
