As a result Feast received increased media coverage and was featured in \"mainstream\" outlets that had never promoted it before, such as radio stations Mix 102.3 and FiveAA, an unprecedented publicity coup for the festival.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nOther media coverage highlights included two covers of Blaze magazine, a spectacular \"Priscilla Queen of the Desert\" themed cover photo shoot for The City, cover stories for the Portside and Eastern Courier Messengers, major articles in The Advertiser, Sunday Mail, InDaily, SA Life, SA Weekend and gay media including LOTL, Star Observer, DNA, Fuse, SameSame.com.au and Gay News Network, as well as feature interviews on ABC 891, FiveAA and Radio Adelaide, TV news coverage on Channels Nine, Seven, Ten and ABC and a special live cross to opening night on Channel Ten's hit national show \"The Project\".\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nI also managed Feast's social media channels during the festival including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, and launched official Vine and Soundcloud channels where I devised, shot and published a series of quirky viral videos. Featuring the biggest stars of the festival cracking jokes, singing songs or telling stories, these \"Quick Bite\" videos were a fun and highly shareable way of engaging Feast's fans on social media. Over the course of my campaign Feast's Facebook audience grew by almost 40 per cent, and its Twitter and Instagram followings both more than doubled.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-0a00gu6op18\/VgEFreTHABI\/AAAAAAAACak\/DsdkcjDkAvI\/s1600\/Feast.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"\u003E\u003Cimg border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-0a00gu6op18\/VgEFreTHABI\/AAAAAAAACak\/DsdkcjDkAvI\/s1600\/Feast.jpg\" \/\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Ccenter\u003E\n\u003Cdiv id=\"fb-root\"\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Cscript\u003E(function(d, s, id) {  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];  if (d.getElementById(id)) return;  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;  js.src = \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1\u0026version=v2.3\";  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));\u003C\/script\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\"fb-video\" data-allowfullscreen=\"1\" data-href=\"\/FeastFestival\/videos\/vb.18829340357\/10152777871295358\/?type=1\"\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\"fb-xfbml-parse-ignore\"\u003E\n\u003Cblockquote cite=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/FeastFestival\/videos\/10152777871295358\/\"\u003E\n\u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/FeastFestival\/videos\/10152777871295358\/\"\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nWatch transgender icon BUCK ANGEL meet his bronze sculpture at the Art Gallery of South Australia for the first time in the first of our new mini video series, Feast Fest QUICK BITES!
