GEL Studios is excited to introduce our Next-Gen Programme - an initiative dedicated to nurturing the next generation of creative talent.
It’s our way of giving back, doing things differently, and inspiring tomorrow’s workforce to make a positive impact.
We challenged Francesca to develop a social media campaign for a limited-edition summer flavour from Grind Coffee. The campaign needed to reflect the brand’s sustainability mission while generating excitement around the new product launch. Francesca backed up her direction with audience and market research.
Francesca delivered eight bold, on-brand social media posts created in Canva - each supported by thoughtful research and a detailed persona profile. Her campaign struck the perfect balance between strategy and creativity, showing a clear understanding of both the brand, its values and its core audience.
On her final day, Francesca pitched her summer campaign to the GEL Studios team, including our founder, Graeme. With confidence and clarity, she talked us through her ideas, research, and creative choices. Her pitch was professional, well thought-out, and delivered with genuine passion, bringing her campaign to life.
After her time with us, we shared Francesca's work across our own social media channels - and it didn’t go unnoticed! The CEO and team at Grind Coffee spotted her work, reached out to us directly, and shared her designs with their own Instagram audience of over 230,000 followers - that's real impact if you ask us!
