Beirut International Award Festival
Assistant Executive Producer for an international awards ceremony — coordinating artists, media teams, sponsors and live segments with Shine Entertainment.
Julie Botti takes an idea the whole way — concept, story, production, audience. Content, live events, and creative direction, across three languages.
Open to new projectsThe premise
Julie is a Master's-level Media & Communication graduate who works fluidly between content and copywriting, live production and event coordination, creative direction, and research. The through-line is a producer's mindset: seeing the whole path from a blank page to an audience.
Her work runs from social storytelling for brands, to a large-scale international awards ceremony, to music-video production, media research, and journalism — carried out in Arabic, English, and French. One person, comfortable across the disciplines a project actually needs.
What I do
These rarely happen one at a time. A campaign needs the words and the visual direction and the production and the messaging — often in the same week. That overlap is the point.
