Our Media 6 seminar this week revolved mostly around a group meeting before the seminar in which we began to discuss individual roles, set design, the logistics of the seminar itself – including camera and audio setup and a number of other important aspects for the organisation of our TV seminar.
I helped brainstorm poster/promo video ideas with Helena, Jenny and a few others.
In week 2, we decided on our title – ‘A Remote Journey’, which was my contribution to the options. Working with this idea, we decided on a city skyline as the backdrop for the seminar, but with TV remotes instead of skyscrapers.
In terms of role allocation, I was tasked with camera operator and equipment setup on the day. I also volunteered to help shoot a promo video and discussed the camera/audio setup for the day with other techs in the group.
I was also responsible for approaching the steering committee with the potential for providing hamper/gifts for the guests through my workplace, Eltham Deli. Which I have since ordered and aided correspondence between the Deli and Aimee, from the steering committee.
That ties up week 3 in Media 6 Seminar.
