This project included creating a social media campaign to advertise the voting process for Baldwin Wallace University's student newspaper's, The Exponent, awards ceremony.
We designed a two-round voting process where the first round had students nominate their choices for the categories that the newspaper decided on. Then the second round was voting for the winner of that category from the most popular nominees from the first round. Then we released the winners in the final issue of the paper, and the award ceremony was an event to celebrate those winners.
The social media campaign only focused on advertising the voting process, not the actual event. I created a content calendar along with my social media manager, and we split the post creation between the two of us. I created the first two posts, and she created the second two posts. We decided that some of the social media sites would get a fifth post, and others would get only three.
Below is the content calendar:
This is the logo I created for the event:

The basis for the second social media post was a little more complicated. So here is the content for the Facebook image:
I used a stock image of a newspaper and created a torn page image for the background of the post. Then I added the detail.
