Communications Infrastructure

IBPR was tasked with creating a communications infrastructure for Stand-Up Mobile in April 2021. This project began when IBPR's CEO was a member of the Board of Directors. A website was created, email accounts, donation links, social media platforms, a logo, collateral materials, and more. Other duties included public relations (press releases, media monitoring). These efforts, funded on a shoestring budget increased awareness and fostered engagement with the newly established nonprofit organization founded in January 2021 to increase voter awareness.

LOGO

THE LOGO

The use of capital letters in the organization's name serves multiple purposes. First and foremost, it acts as a call to action - urging Mobilians to stand up and exercise their right to vote. The capitalization of the words also lends a sense of authority and emphasis to the organization's purpose, making it more impactful.

"MOBILE" represents the organization's location and a strategic design element. Capitalizing and highlighting "MOBILE" directly calls the citizens of Mobile, Alabama, to action. It is a nod to their roots and the primary area of focus.

The logo also features a silhouette figure of a man between the letters I and L. This silhouette man symbolizes the individual voter; the figure is universally relatable, symbolizing every citizen, regardless of their identity, and emphasizing the importance of their participation in the voting process. It visually represents the organization's mission - encouraging everyone to stand up and be counted.

Photography

Images of various outreach events were captured to showcase the work performed by Stand-Up Mobile in the community. Photos featured involvement in community meetings, empowering youth to register to vote, participating in expungement clinics, and sharing valuable voter information.

Website

The informational website promoted voter awareness and engagement. Resources on candidates running for office, initiatives affecting their communities, expungement clinics, community meetings, voter registration deadlines, amendments, state and municipal elections, and events were shared to keep voters informed. Additionally, the website features captivating photo galleries, compelling videos, and convenient links to various social platforms, fostering a dynamic and interactive online experience.

Graphic Design

The graphic design process involved strategically selecting powerful images that evoke emotions of family, unity, patriotism, and empowerment. These high-quality visuals aimed to personally connect with voters and prospective voters, inspiring a strong sense of civic duty and raising awareness about voter rights and responsibilities. Furthermore, the color scheme aligns with the iconic American red, white, and blue colors. It incorporates imagery of the American flag to convey a sense of patriotism and love for the country.

Social Media

Social media accounts were created to ignite civic engagement and voter awareness. Important voter deadlines, community meetings, amendments, and community issues were shared on Facebook and Instagram using videos, photographs, and flyers.

Public Relations

IndigoBlu PR assisted with public relations while serving as a member of the Board of Directors by sharing vital information on community events with the media to encourage voter engagement and awareness.
