Make it Scotch

Creating social 'field cred'

Make it Scotch is the consumer face of Quality Meat Scotland, aiming to educate consumers from farm to fork about Scotch Beef, Lamb & Pork.

I contributed to the creative social content for many years, but the chef’s kiss has to be contributing to the Field Cred campaign – targeting modern ‘flexitarians’ with bold content that started conversations.

Designing for key steak-holders

Variety is the spice of life – especially when said spice is for food content. The art direction was rustic and bold, with supporting images falling within a tailored colour scheme. 

On top of this, video content was produced, split between recipe videos, infographics and interviews. For this, I helped with pre/post production, story boarding and editing each short-form video.

Supporting with email & stories

On top of the main social media rollout, I was also responsible for interactive Instagram Story content. I also built the email templates (on Mailchimp) and created a welcome automation. For each of these elements, I designed and wrote the copy. How’s that for streamlining?
