JCDC has many proud sponsors. I observed that these sponsors were a great help to the company throughout my time working there. As a small token to each sponsor, we provided members of their groups a certain amount of tickets to each of our events during Independence Weekend. Attached is a list of sponsors that I compiled along with their respective amounts of tickets for each event as a ‘thank you’ for all their hard work.

Featured above is a list I compiled of national Jamaican television stations. During the time of my internship, JCDC was looking around for commercial opportunities. The company usually keeps a list of media outlets at hand, however, as expected this list got old over time. Therefore, it was my responsibility to call around to different television outlets in Jamaica and gather their contact details for my boss.

The above is an international contact list I made for my boss, which included radio stations in the Jamaican Diaspora. For this task it was my responsibility to message each company and gather their contact details. This would then be used for sponsorship opportunities as well as keeping good relations with international stations.

JCDC Trophy Template

One of the many tasks given to me this summer was to type what would be the caption of each trophy for the Festival Song Competition.

An example of a template for one of the performers is as follows:

JCDC 55 th logo over musical note Festival Song Logo Here Awarded to Sheea Ann Hewan Songwriter I LOVE JAMAICA Jamaica Festival Song Finaliist 2018

I typed one for each performer, producer and songwriter in the competition.

During my internship I was given the task of writing the biographies for the programme of the Jamaica Festival Song Competition. I wrote the biographies seen in the picture evidence attached.
