Media Committee February Update

The Media Committee is planning another Corps Day video workshop at SPNN, to take place on April 20th. CTEP members will have an opportunity to tackle a fun small-group video project that will allow us all to exercise our storyboard, scripting, camera, and editing skills once again. Weather permitting, we'll have the opportunity to go outside to do some of our video shooting.

The Media Committee is currently working on finding the best way to provide every CTEP member with a copy of a DVD containing all the PSA projects that we worked on at the Corps Day video workshop we did back in December. More info on that coming soon!

Media Committee members are available for information / consultation / help with video productions or other media projects you may be planning at your sites. Consider us to be an information resource for your media work, and feel free to email us with any questions or to ask for training, resources, or other help, and we'll give you as much information and assistance as we can.

Recently, Gina and Les videotaped a class conducted by Bridget for the Laptops for Learning program at Waite House, as well as interviews that Bridget conducted after class with program participants. Bridget and Gina edited the video in iMovie (on a long, long Sunday afternoon / evening / wee hours), and the finished video was presented at the Laptops for Learning graduation ceremony on January 22nd. The video was a hit, says Bridget -- people laughed in the right places. Bridget and Gina are planning to create an addition to the video in the near future, and the finished product will be utilized by the Laptops for Learning program as a tool for publicizing the program.

On December 15th, our committee held a media training day at SPNN. Here are the PSAs that were created as part of that training:
