I felt very lucky and excited to work with RISING in 2023, and again to be asked to return for the 2024 program. My work for RISING included desiging print and digital assets for marketing and signage, such as animated and static social media and web assets, posters, icons, wayfinding, schedules, maps, and RISING’s EDM template. I produced a high volume of these polished assets, in line with RISING’s brand guidelines, within very tight deadlines. It’s been such a treat to see some of this work displayed all over the city, and shared online by so many artists that I admire.
"Holly is a wonderful designer and team player. In the two festivals she has worked on with RISING, she has embedded herself quickly into our workflow and team dynamic. What drew me to Holly in the hiring process was her varied design experience and ability to communicate a lot of competing information in an effective and beautiful way. Holly took on the RISING brand with confidence and speed. The way she interrogates the purpose of the communications (even when there is a high volume of work, and time pressure) really sets her apart from others in her field, and filled me with a lot of trust. This year, we tasked her with developing and rolling out the Day Tripper sub-brand, which she did with aplomb across digital, social, signage, merch and paid marketing. She really is a delight. I would hire her in a heartbeat."
