Events editor
Red House Marketing runs two main monthly magazines. Bahrain this Month and Woman this Month. My first month required me to write two issues worth of advertorials for fashion clients as well as writing general articles of my choosing for Woman this Month.
This month I have been given the role of 'Events Editor', this roles means that I am given eight pages of Bahrain this Month (the bigger magazine), and I must find events that are 'happening' in the Kingdom of Bahrain, the month the magazine is being released.
Therefore I have been given a list of contacts from various organizations and companies and I have been ringing them all to find out who has events planned. Once I have found events I must fill out an excel chart of my stories choices and send them to the chief editor for approval.
I must then liaise with those organizers to ask them to send over a press release and high resolution pictures; so i can write my own version of the press release to make the tone of voice suitable for the readers, and editing the word count to fit the desired page (which requires confirmation from the art director).
