Brand Voice: In–Person Workshop

We think that the design industry requires people to be more skilled than ever before and traditional educators are finding it hard to remain relevant. We want to address this by creating a collection of lessons that are led by guest lecturers who specialise in diverse disciplines. It is now time to provide opportunities for professionals to find the knowledge needed for a successful future.

Guest Lecturer
Gina Buckle is the founder of Hoot Copy, a copywriting and brand voice consultancy specialising in fun, humour, and personality. She works with businesses to help them figure out what their authentic definition of fun is, and shows them how they can reflect this consistently across their buyer journey. She believes that the right brand voice should feel fun, authentic, and easy to sustain, as well as being undeniably magnetic to your audience, and that's exactly what she helps her clients to do.
