OUR PROCESS
Part 1: Research & consulting
Our team alongside associates undertake the research phase to understand the current operations of the local community. We work with local schools, young people and community groups to collect the right data needed to develop a winning strategy. We make sure it is fun and engaging for the residents, rather than a mundane approach to data collection.
Part 2: Agile campaign planning & co-creating with the local community
The research findings inform the planning phase of the campaign. Our team creates initial drawings based on the insights they collected and go back to the community for feedback. As part of our agile planning process, we offer you the option to involve the local community further by asking them to offer their views on the value proposition.
Part 3: Campaign roll-out & further engagement
WeTheSeeds undertake the execution phase of the project offering more than just painting art in the public realm. Our strong project management skills and experience ensure the timely, professional delivery of on-site work, and the collection of quantified feedback on the finished project.
During the roll-out phase we can also provide the following options:
Providing captivating and engaging content for the purposes of the organisation commissioning the artwork.
Collaborating with 3rd party creative teams and local creative companies.
Engaging local businesses in the scope of the project.
Showcasing and sharing the project on our social media channels.
