Week three felt like the calm before the storm. We finally finished the promotional video, exported it’s final version, and sent it off to the Phoenix Generation Fellows\u2019 emails to give them information about the event. The video was also circulated on the Phoenix Generation Social media platform where followers engaged with it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Interviews<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n With the video sent out, I moved on to writing questions for the three interviews that we had planned for next week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Daryl Davis & Jeff Schoep – the Courageous Conversations event speakers<\/p>\n\n\n\n Alan Ginsburg – founder of the Ginsburg Family Foundation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Marc McMurrin – CEO of Ginsburg Family Foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I and another intern, with the help of Dr. Lua Hancock, drafted and revised questions. Interviews’ questions covered a wide variety of questions about the beginning of the Ginsburg Famiy Foundation and how it has evolved overtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Materials Preparation for the Event<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n On wednesday I joined other interns to sort event merchandise. We organized T-shirts in five sizes, pens that actually write, and insulated tumblers that won’t fit back in their boxes once you take them out. It took a long time but it was an essential part of the preparation for the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Looking Ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Next week is planning to be very busy: actual event, where will be taking videos and photos, and, hopefully, recording all three interviews without any problems. I\u2019ll be balancing podcast hosting, camera setups, and an actual recording of the material. First three weks gave me the right attitude towards the goals that we want to achieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reflection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Every task, whether scripting, organizing event materials, or making last-minute audio or video adjustments, keeps pushing me out of my comfort zone in new ways. This mix of creative and logistical work is turning this internship into a crash course in real-world media production and I am happy for having that experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Week three felt like the calm before the storm.
