Over the course of 6 months, I'm rotating between the 3 departments of Channel 4's marketing operation. I'll spend 2 months in each of the following departments:- 4Studio: In C4's new social media arm I'll be building strategic and creative direction to make original and branded content for social channels targeting young audiences.- 4Creative: I'll be within the in house agency responsible for all C4 ads and communications, learning the process of building ideas and making creative for TV advertising C4's shows.- Creative Hub: At C4's answer to a traditional creative agency and using my strengths in copywriting, I'll be responding to briefs from brands that want to utilise C4's values as the driver for their communications.

I have a huge passion for the UK's black music scene. The aim of my writing is to cover this space with the depth and detail that they deserve, and by extension to track and document the ebb and flow of the culture as it continues to evolve. All bylines are on my portfolio, here: https://muckrack.com/dwayne-wilks/portfolioThus far I've been commissioned by Clash Magazine, Complex UK, Trench Magazine, Notion Magazine, GRM Daily and more.
