Formerly known as the Philadelphia Podcasting Society, we were charged with rebranding the organization as a more inclusive creative arts organization. Wanting to capitalize on the success of the past, it was decided to simply extend the name to the Philadelphia Podcasting Society & Creative Arts Alliance. We developed a new logo and a few marketing materials (a banner, pamphlets, etc.).

Live Events

Part of the rebranding phase included jumping into the new organization’s first public event, Fan Expo Philadelphia 2023. The weekend showed a successful launch of the new brand, attracting new members from the tri-state area, a 2000% increase in newsletter signups, and the successful production of two panels and a live podcast at the convention.

Web Design

We are currently designing the website for the Philadelphia Podcasting Society & Creative Arts Alliance as a place people can go to learn more about the organization, join and support the organization, and find out what events the PPSCAA is putting together.

2023 Update

Original plans were in place to try and put together a Performance Arts Festival in Q3/Q4 of 2023. Delays may push that potential event to Q1 of 2024, but we are still trying to get all the pieces to fall together for a Q4 Festival for the organization.

We provided a subject matter expert for Nerd Nite Philly’s Star Wars night. Our speaker researched the history of Star Wars both on the big screen and in TV and made an argument why the future of the franchise is not necessarily in film, but in TV. We created a PowerPoint that went along with the presentation and gave a visual guide for the points our speaker was making.

This was the third annual festival that Everything is Awesome came to us to help put together that raised money for a Cancer organization, though it was the first with the HEADstrong Foundation. Previous years were focused only on live podcasts at one venue (Tattooed Mom on South Street in Philadelphia, PA). Working with a local organization that supports families dealing with cancer in their family, we wanted to make an even bigger impact. We expanded the festival to include stand-up comedy and found three additional venues to support the increase in performances: MilkBoy South Street, South Street Cinema, and ThirstyDice. Across the four venues, we had 20+ podcasts and 20+ comedians perform and help raise over $1000 for the HEADstrong Foundation.

Audio Services

At Tattooed Mom, South Street Cinema, and ThirstyDice, we set up a sound system so performers could be heard throughout the venues and recorded all the audio so podcasts could use the recordings for their own feeds. At MilkBoy South Street, we utilized the pre-existing sound system and incorporated our own recording devices to capture the audio.

We helped the client rebrand OUAT: The Unofficial Once Upon a Time Podcast into Once Upon a Wine. Given the core concept of the new vision for the podcast, we developed a new logo, brand color scheme, website, and social media presence.

Podcast Services

We developed the original podcast, OUAT: The Unofficial Once Upon a Time Podcast, to be a recap podcast about ABC’s Once Upon a Time. For the first few seasons of the podcast, we not only provided podcast hosting services but provided the two hosts of the show. After bringing the new hosting squad on, we focused on editing, production, and marketing of the show.

Live Events

We planned an unofficial New York Comic Con live podcast that partnered OUAT: The Unofficial Once Upon a Time Podcast with Everything is Awesome as an event that celebrated pop-culture, Once Upon a Time, and a screening of Once Upon the Time: The Rock Opera.

Web Services

We designed and hosted the site for both versions of the podcast. With the popularity of Once Upon a Time and the client’s parody musical Once Upon a Time: The Rock Opera, we were able to bring in sponsors and leverage Patreon as a source of income for the podcast.

Since 2017, we have assisted in running audio and recording shows at the Tattooed Mom venue for the Philadelphia Podcast Festival. We would ensure the shows ran on time and that they would get their audio files after the two-weekend festival.

Live Podcast

Since 2016, we have provided entertainment by booking Everything is Awesome at the festival. The hosts of the show would change up their format to a Late Night talk show style that included interviews with local guests, comedians doing a short set, and playing games with the guests and/or audience. We assisted Everything is Awesome in developing this “Late Night” version of the live show.
