Yanga Lubisi
I am a young, target driven BA Media graduate, with a flare for writing and a keen interest in social media. My experiences in the media field range from Public Relations, Content Writing, Community Management, Strategy and Conceptualizing creative concepts/art direction for social media content.
Show profile Hide profileI have a BA Media, Communication and Culture Degree from Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University (NMMU) and pursuing my Honours Degree in Media Studies from UNISA. The media industry has taught me so much and I am learning more with each aspect I have ventured into thus far. I have worked in radio and communications, public relations and in the sales and marketing field but my passion has always been in writing and communications.
In 2017, I changed from client service, to a more in-depth content approach by working at Liquorice Digitas LBi, in Cape Town. I have worked with reputable brands such as Unilever, Tiger Brands, AVON, Whiskas, Distell, DEFY and so much more. It has been quite an exhilarating journey, conceptualizing and creating content for their various social media platforms, whether it's always-on content or campaigns, creating the art direction for content plans and also conducting the live tweeting for selected events.
In 2016, I explored the side of corporate as an Account Executive, at EPIC MSL GROUP, in Cape Town. This was one of the most challenging and rewarding experiences I have had thus far, as I had the pleasure of working with reputable global brands such as Cipla, Turkish Airlines, Maersk, and Exxon Mobil. There was also room to dabble in consumer brands such as Distell, of which I worked on the Durbanville Hills, Zonnebloem and Pongracz accounts. One of the most exciting brands I got to work with, was undoubtedly Dunkin' Donuts South Africa. I was part of the team that headed up the entire campaign and ultimately, launched the brand in 2016 and following that, Baskin Robbins. In the beginning of the year 2017, I had the pleasure of assisting with the preparations of one of Samsung's biggest events of the year, the annual Samsung Africa Forum. The event took place at the CTICC, over the course of 3 days (23 February - 25 February) and I assisted further, with the preparations for the Ultra Festival that took place on Friday 24 February 2017 at the Green Point Stadium.
