Soon to be Seminar…
Today marks the day that i have discovered i will be partaking in a group collaborative project. A group of 13 of us to be exact, and we will be all combining our skills obtained in the course to create a Media Seminar!
The 13 3rd year media students i was teamed up with were all drawn to the subject of the Television industry and thanks to the steering committees NOT so genius idea, the theme the seminar has to be circulated around is “an epic journey” (come on, reality TV as a theme would of been way better, you all know it). At this point in time my feelings towards the task and the logistics of it are that I’m intimidated! Im used to collaborating with 4 or 5 people at most, but encompassing 13 peoples ideas and discoveries into 1 hour long seminar will be tough. However I’m determined to contribute and reflect my ideas into the groups vision and try to get along with this young wacky group of television fiends.
At this stage , observing the tasks required in constructing a seminar, I see a few key ones i would be interested in taking care of. I would love to try and source an Industry contact that the seminar would feature as-well as getting involved with the Promo video side of things (an epic journey relating to the subject of television… Yes, it has so much potential!). After we all had a lovely chat and brainstormed a few witty puns we could use as our title of the seminar ( a “remote journey” was the winner), the group began allocating individual tasks and i decided to formally lock my self in being responsible for trying to source an industry contact and creating the video! I think i would also be interested in designing the layout of the seminar and getting creative in constructing an insightful but also entertaining information session! I will mention this to my group next week as another responsibility i might want to tackle 🙂
I was disappointed to discover that i will be absent on the 28th of August which is co incidentally the date of the seminar aswell as the date I will be participating in another type of ‘Epic Journey” myself; skiing in Queenstown New Zealand! However, i discussed this with my group and with Shelly & Christina, and as long as make significant contribution in the organisation and preparation for the seminar, everyones happy!
Curious to see how this one will go!
Bellow is a snap of my new Television industry buddies!
