Hi there. My name is Megan. I’m a creative looking for a role in the football industry. My background in psychology allows me to put myself in other people’s shoes to understand their needs and wants, and then communicate it effectively with the right people. My passions include football, social media, and fashion, and I love to combine them where I can.

Project 1

Brief

Idea

COPA90 asked the Beat The Bias cohort to curate our take on the future of the women’s game. Presenting us with topics that came to light in the WFB evolution programme, but are yet to be commonplace in the wider conversation around the women’s game. They wanted us to create a physical and digital zine to be presented at an EA Sports FC event.

End-to-end production of the zine. It was decided that the zine should be split into 5 comprehensive chapters, that altogether covered a global perspective of the women’s game. These were:

  1. An Ode To Today (stratospheric growth in 2022)
  2. It’s Own Game (a unique on pitch identity)
  3. With It’s Own Culture (community building the game up)
  4. With It’s Own Opportunities (setting up a bright future)
  5. With It’s Own Future To Write (ten years from now)

Outcome

Story Takeover

Footage was recorded and sent back to individuals with access to the IG channel, with ideas for how it could be used and how to produce high story interactions to gain traction and improve insights, eg question sticker box “guess which Lioness we will be interviewing?”

Red Carpet Vox Pops

These were compromised of two priority questions (“Have you played FIFA23 yet?” and “Fit check” questions) and a follow up question depending on the answer. The rest of the questions were split into 3 categories and only asked if there was sufficient time:

  1. FIFA23 eg. Favourite FIFA song?
  2. Summit eg. Can you describe how special of a night this is to you?
  3. Quickfire eg. show you are bingeing right now?

Kelly Smith Interview

It was decided that this was best split into 5 sections, each containing different style and topics of questions.

  1. Kelly’s career (7.5 mins) eg. What is your favourite goal you have scored in your career (eg scoring from corner against Chelsea)? Do you think you could recreate it on FIFA?
  2. Predictions (5 mins) eg. Golden boot winner? Strictly come dancing winner?
  3. Build your perfect footballer (4 mins) Choose one player for each category eg. Pace, dribbling, finishing etc.
  4. Quick fire questions (1 min) eg. Score own goal or miss a penalty? Ability to fly or read minds?
  5. Presentation of zine and relevant questions (2.5 mins) eg. Ebony Salmon was one of our players to watch in 2032. Who do you think could be the next Sam Kerr?
