Nice weather is so fun!

|
The nice weather has been nothing but enjoyable lately! It has definitely put me in a better mood :).

My dot com shift went really well..I now able to do everything without needing any help. Haven't had a chance to do anything with flash yet hoping to work on that next week. Neither of the two reporters had stories that we thought really could have benefited from a flash project.

Here is some of the work I did:




Most of the work I did this week involved posting captions and web extras. It seems the reporters are starting to really get the hang of creating their own stories for the web which is nice. Both of our reporters Christine Gerli and Cassandra Novy completed both of their stories full with pictures and captions this week. The only stories we had to edit ourselves was the follow up files story and Reed Erickson's live shot. Goals for next week are to use flash I played around with it a little during my shift but I want to put a lot of effort into creating something.

As far as our capstone project goes we have finally figured out a time everyone can meet which is great. We are meeting up at KOMU at 6:30 tonight to go over everything. Nick and I have gathered a fair about of content. I'm not sure where everyone else stands but plan to get caught up on that tonight. We have an interview set up with Marty Steffens Monday to do a welcome interview, working with Brian Brooks to get something set up this week and hopefully Charles Davis. I also sent Mark Jarvis an e-mail on Wednesday so I am hoping to hear back from him soon so we can start to fully understand what we can and cannot do with our content.

My goals for next week are:

1. Gather at least 3 interviews for capstone along with create more video of the dorms and meet with Mark Jarvis.
2. Make progress on my website.
3. Create a flash graphic on Wednesday.
4. Get more of my video onto Vimeo so I can get it on my website.

Overall all though...this week was a success!
