I’m writing this late but nevertheless, I’m very encouraged by the discussions with my teammates. Last week we had our in-class meeting and our first “Sunday Brunch” meeting! Thanks to our project manager Amanda, we’ve been in total organization mode: scheduling meetings, delegating tasks, and completing our agreement and proposal. It’s encouraging to work with others who value communication and organization.
My position in this project deals with multimedia creation, editing, and management. We are not quite there yet. Our sources, scope, and hosting site, will later determine some of the questions I’m asking from the team including the tool needed to capture video and audio, the length of the final products, and the format (mp4, mp3, etc).
Other questions surrounding the construction of the legal consent form deals with children on film/video, the public aspect of this project, and the partnership we will have with schools and other educational institutions. Since we are still talking about the scope of the project, these questions are still left unanswered. However, I’m confident that as we continue to communicate and bring up great ideas about the possible “talent” / contributors (age and demographic of the student) and audience (student, parents, and educators), we will be able to answer these questions.
During our class meeting, we had the opportunity to meet with Micki who very generously gave us great insight on possible challenges we will face, and possible solutions/paths we could take in this multimedia project.
