Promotion Campaign for Edinburgh Fringe Dance Show

Promotion Campaign for Edinburgh Fringe Dance Show

Brief

"What is the meaning of art?"


art*/ ɑ ː t / 𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘯 is a dance show that explores the journey of self-discovery through art and the pushing of creative and personal boundaries. After a preview at LIPA in April, the team took the production to the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe. This project aims to create promotional materials including social media posts, instagram reels, poster designs, show t-shirt designs, and more.

Concept

The promotional campaign and show design process are developing simultaneously. We discussed the direction of the posts, drawing inspiration from the show's aesthetic. The visual style combines mixed-media collage and double exposure, aligning with the show’s design concept and maintaining a sense of mystery for the audience.

How can we stand out from the sea of over 3,800 shows in Edinburgh Fringe?

How can we stand out from the sea of over 3,800 shows

in Edinburgh Fringe?

Standing out in the Edinburgh Fringe isn't about shouting louder; it’s about breaking the visual pattern.


In an environment saturated with loud, bright comedy posters, we lean into deliberate aesthetics. By using high-contrast, minimalist design and sophisticated typography, we create a "visual pause" that attracts the culturally curious spectator—those looking for depth rather than just a punchline.

Exploration

The sentiment and a human touch.

In a digital-heavy world, people crave authentic connection. We don’t just advertise; we unravel the show’s soul. We use our trailer not as a preview of scenes, but as a way to tell stories and break down conversations.

Preview Dance Trailer #1


Filmed during multiple dance rehearsals, the video focuses on rhythmic editing to reflect the energy of the dancers.


Handheld camera movements are intentionally kept to enhance motion and create a sense of presence.


With dynamic framing, varied angles, and moody colour grading, the trailer gives the audience a glimpse into the essence of the show, helping to build anticipation and excitement.

Edinburgh Fringe Trailer #2


Created for the multidisciplinary performance, the trailer combines rehearsal footage with type-led motion graphics to reflect the show's emotional depth and fragmented narrative.


Rhythmic cuts and glitch transitions are used to echo the tension between artistic vulnerability and the desire for validation.


Set in a vertical format, the trailer is designed for social media, using ambient sound design and a raw visual style to draw viewers into the atmosphere of the performance.
