areas of experience

  • We understand that theatre isn’t just about what happens on stage; it’s about creating an immersive world for the audience long before the curtain rises. Our team has worked with directors, producers, and theatre companies to craft campaigns that spotlight the emotional core of performances. From teaser trailers that build anticipation to stunning playbills and social media strategies that bring stories to life, we know how to capture the drama and artistry of the theatre in ways that resonate.

  • Ballet and musicals are where precision meets passion. We translate the elegance of a grand jeté or the crescendo of a rousing finale into visual campaigns that mirror the discipline and artistry of the performance itself. Whether promoting a classic production or a modern masterpiece, we design marketing materials that embody the grace, movement, and emotional intensity these art forms demand.

  • The buzz of a sold-out arena, the intimacy of an unplugged session—every concert tells a story, and we ensure it’s heard loud and clear. Our team excels at tapping into fan cultures, understanding the nuances of diverse genres, and creating campaigns that build momentum, sell tickets, and turn moments into memories. From artist announcements to post-show recaps, we make every part of the journey unforgettable.

  • Heritage venues are more than just locations—they’re keepers of history and culture. We approach these spaces with a reverence for their past and a vision for their future. By blending storytelling with modern digital strategies, we help heritage venues engage contemporary audiences while honouring their legacy. From reimagining visitor guides to creating campaigns that highlight their cultural significance, we ensure every story these spaces tell continues to inspire.

  • Promoting a band isn’t just about getting their name out there—it’s about building their universe. We collaborate with bands to create campaigns that reflect their sound, their story, and their soul. From bold visuals for album drops to social strategies that engage fans at every level, we ensure that every chord and lyric finds its audience. With experience in music videos, tour branding, and digital fan engagement, we know how to amplify a band’s identity across every channel.

  • A great tour is a finely tuned machine, and we’re the gears behind the scenes. From creating cohesive branding that carries through every city to managing the on-the-ground logistics of merchandise and promotions, we bring seamless organisation to the chaos of the road. Whether it’s a stadium tour or a grassroots gig, we ensure every moment leaves an impression.

  • Merchandise isn’t just a product—it’s an extension of the artist’s identity. Our team specialises in creating unique, high-quality items that fans can’t resist. From bold designs that reflect the artist’s style to sustainable sourcing options, we craft merch that feels personal and on-brand. Whether it’s limited-edition drops or full product lines, we help turn concepts into coveted collectables.

  • The circus is a world of wonder and spectacle, and promoting it requires just as much flair. We channel the excitement and mystique of the circus into campaigns that evoke the thrill of the big top. From eye-catching posters that leap off the walls to social media activations that build anticipation, we make sure every campaign captures the magic that only the circus can bring.

  • Art is about connection, and we’re experts at bridging the gap between artists and their audiences. For galleries, we create campaigns that position exhibitions as cultural events, using immersive storytelling and creative visuals to draw crowds. For individual artists, we develop branding that reflects their unique style, whether it’s for a debut collection or an international showcase. Our work ensures that art doesn’t just exist—it thrives.

  • In the publishing world, every story deserves its spotlight. We bring books to life with campaigns that resonate with readers, from visually arresting launch materials to engaging social content. Whether you’re releasing a breakout novel or promoting a niche title, we create strategies that put your book in the hands of its perfect audience. Beyond traditional approaches, we also design illustrations and cover art that make stories leap off the shelves.

  • Drag is bold, unapologetic, and full of life—just like our approach to promoting it. We work with drag artists to create campaigns that reflect their personality, performance style, and larger-than-life presence. From video promos that slay to merchandise that sparkles, we know how to celebrate the artistry and charisma that make drag an unforgettable experience. Whether it’s a solo showcase or a multi-artist extravaganza, we deliver campaigns as fabulous as the performers themselves. And we dont fuck it up!

  • Sport is more than a game—it’s passion, culture, and community. At The Alternative Studio, we channel this energy into bold marketing campaigns for football, rugby, cricket, and motorsports. From launching kits to energising fanbases, we craft strategies that amplify identities and create unforgettable moments. Whatever the sport, we’re here to tell your story with creativity and impact.
