Extreme E Race Series Launch Event

Date: January 2019
Role: Senior Production Manager

Press launch for Extreme E Race Series. An international electric off road race series that uses spec electric SUVs to race in remote parts of the world. Hosted on the Royal Mail Ship, St Helena, where Extreme E unveiled the full concept ahead of the 2021 launch. The event was held in the hull of the ship. We loaded onto the ship the day before at Tilbury Docks and setup whilst in transit to HMS Belfast, Tower Bridge where it would be moored for the duration of the event. The event was available to Stream online for racing enthusiasts at home and press who were unable to make the event. This project forged our relationship with the Extreme E team and Velocity have since delivered a number of other events since the launch.
