Self-assessment #2

On the day of the seminar, I was in charge of the powerpoint, switching slides on the laptop for the projector. The day went well, with the sound being the main problem we faced. I helped out with moving the stage and props, and setting them up as well. I think I helped out a lot that day. After the seminar, I volunteered to edit the highlight reel of the seminar, and the end result I think was great, as I took the parts I found most interesting during the day. I handed the audio and highlight reel right on time to the steering committee before the international seminar. Overall, I definitely think I did well after the seminar, and in the week we were preparing and staging it as well. However, I do think I could’ve done more to help from the beginning.

Self-assessment #1

Before the seminar, we had to find and ask guests to attend the seminar, where each member of the group would try to do so. It was in this aspect that I think I was lacking, and a few group members in general were very much the reason we ended up having any guests at all. In terms of the role I had in the preparation for the seminar, it was part of the audio visual presentation, where initially we were to have a fake trailer that we’d shoot. However, after a change in plans, we moved on to reels made for each guest, which was done by Karl. Thus, I had to make the powerpoint presentation for the seminar, which I think I did really well with. Taking points from the group, the presentation was themed around all our posters and promotional material.
