GROUP MEMBER CONTRIBUTION

Daniel Barron:

Dan was the group’s official liaison to the film maker, Troy Hall. Dan created a GMAIL account (poundcakeucf@gmai.com) as a means for us to contact the filmmaker and as a way for all of us to send and receive emails from a single source. Because of his people skills, Dan was also the groups’ official spokesperson. Dan worked with Jonathan on the original marketing plan, searching for and finding a food sponsor, and distributing marketing materials (posters, postcards, and fliers) on several occasions. He also designed the blog and created a Facebook event.


Jonathan Richter:

Initially Jonathan was the official press coordinator for the group. He was in charge of creating a press release and distributing it to any and all outlets of publication (news papers, radio stations, and television studios). In addition to completing these tasks, Jonathan became responsible for designing all the advertisements, i.e. fliers, posters, postcards, and coupon ads. Jonathan also worked with Dan on the original marketing plan, searching for and finding a food sponsor, and distributing marketing materials (posters, postcards, and fliers) on several occasions. He also designed and created all the postings for the blog and convinced one of his professors to offer extra credit to any fellow class member who saw the film.

Heath Lacy:

Taking advantage of his job at Kinko’s, Heath was our go-to print guy. He printed all of the fliers, postcards, and posters for the group. Originally, Heath was assigned to design the posters/fliers/etc. After reviewing the designs, however, the group decided that Jonathan would redo them because he had an idea to better fit the aesthetic of the filmmakers’ designs. He also distributed marketing materials with Dan and Jonathan on a few occasions. Additionally Heath took the initiative to design a Myspace page for the film; however we were unable to use because the filmmakers already had one.
