On Wednesday, Carson and I met with Lauren Babson to discuss the payment details for the V6 DVDs. We provided her with the quote and she forwarded a P/O payment to the DVD company. All Carson needs to do is to communicate with the company when requesting a proof and provide them with the materials. We plan to have the DVD completed by this Saturday and to have a proof requested by May 5th. Lauren will update us with the progress of the DVDs and will inform us when they are shipped to the FST Office over break.
On Friday, I made the revisions Carson requested for the Conference Block Q&A edit for the DVD. I increased the audio levels and tried my best to match the exposure of the footage between the two different cameras.
Working for Visions has been an experience like no other and I will cherish the opportunity forever. No other course offered by UNCW has prepared me for the 'real world'. I have developed my own professional work ethic, challenged myself in my artistic capabilities, gained managerial experience, and provided me an opportunity to network/define myself as a filmmaker. Nothing can describe the pride and joy I felt when I saw everything our staff worked towards come together in an inspirational and fun event. Visions will be the most memorable part of my college career.

Week 15
On Thursday, I finally emailed Matt Stamm. I told him I appreciated his advice and insight on documentary filmmaking and also inquired recommendations for film festival submissions for my film Waterfowl(ed). I also included a link to my film so he could watch it. One of my many faults is being conscious about showing my work. I am a perfectionist and I'm never fully satisfied with the results of my projects. Hopefully Matt will have some encouraging comments that will help guide me on my future projects. I have already begun researching for a summer project in Wilmington. Jaclyn's speech has inspired me to continue working, regardless of employment and to focus on subjects/projects that I am passionate about.
On Friday, I uploaded the Conference Block footage from the archival hard drive. I cut the footage and the audio needed for my segment. However, I do wish I had some footage of the audience so I could intercut them into the Q&A. I suppose I could cut in some slides from the scholars' presentations to avoid just having images of 'talking heads'.
On Saturday, Michelle posted up her design for the DVD cover. The Art Department reviewed it and I suggested some minor adjust with text alignment and readability.
On Sunday, I finished editing the Conference Block Q&A. I created individual question slides in the same design as the Event Slides since some of the audio for the question was inaudible. There was also no footage of the Q&A from the lumina camera positioned on the right. This unfortunately limited the angles I could use, but it seems that the two I had available are fine.
On Monday, we had our Art Dept meeting and reviewed our Manual drafts as well as the final details of the DVD. Zoe also joined us to discuss how to close-out the website/FB page for V7. On another non-Visions note, I'm still waiting to hear some feedback from Matt. However, I did receive great news that my documentary was accepted into its first film festival, TMFF. It's not a huge accomplishment, but it is nice to see some progress!
I also submitted my final Manual additions for the Partner School, Art Dept Scheduling, and Printing.

Week 14
On Tuesday, Samantha informed me that Intellect needed to be added to the Sponsor Slide Rotation. I added this revision and emailed to updates to Dustin.
On Wednesday, I picked up Matt Stamm with Tyler from the airport. He was quite shy and it was a little difficult to get him into a conversation. However, he did provide me with great advice regarding documentary work. I told Matt about my 495 docomentary, Waterfowl(ed), and he really seemed to have an interest in seeing it. He told me to send it to him so he can watch it. Hopefully I can grow the courage and have him view my work. I also picked up Aileen later that night and took her back to my house so she could spend the night. She was an absolute pleasure and gave me an insight for an artist's passion for animation. I wish I had her artistic skills so I could create a visually stunning animated piece.
On Friday, it was surreal to finally see all of our hard work in action! I picked up some of the GMU students that morning and gave their faculty member their $300 travel grant. They were all extremely ecstatic for the event as we were driving to campus. I was in charge of photography for the day and helped out with other tasks when needed. I was extremely nervous for my Conference Block Moderation, but it ended up being okay. I was lucky to have such engaging scholarly essays and Kyle's enthusiasm and charisma was a delight! Also, the Video Race was very challenging, especially for a group of documentary filmmakers. It was a great way to get to know Matt Stamm a little more, but he was still a bit reserved. I was hoping to have done a spoof on a David Attenborough documentary on an alien planet, but the idea didn't seem to have agreed with Kelby. He was very nice but was not open to alternate options to his own idea. Driving the Dew Drop crew to the after party was also a blessing in disguise. Rachel gave me great advice in regards to researching a topic for a documentary as well as how to work around a tight, limiting schedule. At the After Party, I helped Zoe film the interviews since we were short a camera.
On Saturday, Kevin and I enjoyed a road trip with Tyesha when taking her home. She is an absolute beauty and brings optimism everywhere she goes. Visions6 seemed to have been a life-changing event for her and allowed her to see receive the love/admiration she does not receive at home. When we dropped her off, we went in to meet her family and give her a hug goodbye. I hope to keep in touch with her.
On Monday, we had our weekly Art Department meeting and discussed the requirements needed for the DVD. I also discussed the necessary updates needed for the website with Carson and provided him with Zoe's file for Award Winners as well as Day of Event/ After Party photos.

Week 13
On Tuesday, I completed a Manual entry for the Event Slides since there was not one previously in there. I included the dimensions needed (1024 X 768 pixels), options for exporting (jpg or png), and the required slides. It can be viewed here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r_Gu21xa2MpeC6uLEm4Cv54wsH9Cg1muGesNJfq90IQ/edit
I also picked up the Badge proofs from Evonne. They looked stunning! However, I did find a mistake on the proof. The After Party said 10-2am instead of 11-2am. I went with Evonne to fix this issue on the Illustrator file. I ordered the Badges and Evonne estimated that they would be ready by Friday.
As Mariah requested, I completed my Driving duty schedule as well.
On Wednesday, I met up with Adrienne to help her frame and hang up the Marquee Event Poster. Due to the incorrect size, we had to trim it a bit. To our benefit, the part we did sever did not compromise the design! It looks great on display in the FST office. I also printed off the Bake Sale Flyers, some Award Certificates for Samantha, and V6 4-ups for Zoe's marketing event at ACE's screening of Revenant.
On Thursday, I met with Zoe to give her the Bake Sale Flyers and 4-ups. I decided to accompany her while she posted the flyers on key campus locations such as Randall Library, King Hall, and Kenan Hall. I was planning on picking up the Badge Prints, but they were already delivered to the FST Office. That saved me from an extra trip! I also purchased a Thank You Card to give to Evonne for her excellent services for Visions. I plan on having the Directors all sign it at the meeting on Friday.
On Friday, I helped Michelle re-format some text for the program design and I sent the revisions to Evonne. She said she will have a proof ready for Monday. I also joined everyone for the Lumina walk-through after the Director's Meeting. It was very helpful and gave me a better insight of what to expect during the day of the event. I also found out I was told the incorrect dimensions for the Event Slides, so for the next 6 hours I reformatted all of them to a 16:9 ratio. I also created a timed loop of the Welcome slide and the Sponsors slide and provided the link to Rob.
On Saturday, I updated the Event Slide Manual I created to include this new information.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1r_Gu21xa2MpeC6uLEm4Cv54wsH9Cg1muGesNJfq90IQ/edit
On Sunday, I completed my Conference Block Moderation questions. I can up with a general question that all of the panelists can answer as wells as 1 or 2 questions for each individual panelists. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1DhaphKJsEoK5um_zMK8CQPTcQ705WxylgsQJGgmF500/edit If it is permitted, I will prepare notecards with some of this information on notecards.
On Monday, I printed the 40 4-ups Zoe requested for the Bake Sale. Michelle and I also met with Evonne to view the proof of the program. There were only a few alignment issues we were not content with so we made these changes for Evonne. She prepared another proof later that afternoon. Unfortunately Michelle was occupied in class during that time, so Kevin came along with me as a second pair of eyes this time. The proof looked phenomenal and I adamantly believe this is Visions best program design yet. Michelle should take complete pride in what she designed. Evonne said she will try to have the Program Prints completed by Wednesday.
I also picked up the Badge proofs from Evonne. They looked stunning! However, I did find a mistake on the proof. The After Party said 10-2am instead of 11-2am. I went with Evonne to fix this issue on the Illustrator file. I ordered the Badges and Evonne estimated that they would be ready by Friday.

Week 12
On Tuesday, I made the revisions the class requested for my Event Slides. I made the text more legible by decreasing the stroke on the outline, put "Presented by the UNCW Film Studies Department" text on the top of the Welcome Slide, and began designing the Visionary Panel Slide. I also uploaded the updated Trailer Animations.
On Wednesday, I sent the finalized Bake Sale Flyer design to OUR for approval. Samantha's design looks great! I also completed Beth's Career Talk Assignment and made two questions to ask Sean Ahlum for next week's class. Michelle and I had a meeting to review the program so it would be ready for me to print the next day. I also continued working on the Visionary Panel Event Slide.
On Thursday, I submitted my critiques on DoE Interview Schedule as well as my suggestions for the Social Media Shot List. I printed the program pages for the editing session scheduled for the Director's Meeting. Ideally, I would have liked to have gotten a printed proof from Evonne instead of printing in poor quality at the library. However, with the limited time after receiving the project info from filmmakers/scholars later than expected, this was not a feasible option. So I approached the issue with the solution of printing at the library. These prints will at least allow us to edit/revise the text of the program. I also continued working on the Visionary Panel Event Slide. I also uploaded my 3 clips to Dropbox for Kevin's Installation.
On Friday, I order 375 Badges to be printed (42 Filmmaker, 8 Scholar, 30 Staff, 40 Volunteer, and 255 Guests). Evonne told me to come by to review a proof on Monday and hopefully they will be printed by next Friday. Zoe also informed me that although ACE said the Event Poster appeared fine to post in the Marquee Display Case when she dropped it off, they said it was a little too large. ACE needed the Marquee poster 27X40. I take full responsibility for this mistake. I asked Evonne what dimensions she usually prints for the Marquee and she said it was 28X44. I should have taken the time to message ACE to confirm this size, but I did not think it through at the time. Due to this mistake, I updated the Printing Manual (see: https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/0B5SGxGSG5j2zak83YjRSd2xoMEU)
However, Zoe and I did find a solution to this little mistake. ACE offered to printed a Visions6 poster for their marquee free of charge and that we could put the larger poster on an easel outside of Lumina. We decided this would be the most beneficial approach and sent ACE a jpeg of the Event Poster to print.
On Saturday, I spent 7 hours working on the Event Slides. I completed the Visionary Panel slide, some block slides, and sponsor slides.
On Sunday, I spent the whole day completing the Event Slides, including the supporters slides. I posted my completed designs to the Directors Page. After receiving feedback, I uploaded the finalized Event Slides into the Art Department Folder.
On Monday, Evonne said the proofs would possibly be completed by the end of the day, but if not they would be ready tomorrow morning. They were not ready, so I will get them tomorrow. I also submitted the Program for printing! During our department meeting, Michelle and I reviewed the pages for one last look. We altered some of the sponsors in regards to the spacing. We also talked to Carson about the updates needed for the website that were assigned last week. With Tyler, we discussed his final selection for the Installation and reviewed his 4-up design.

Week 11
On Tuesday, I reserved a library room for our miniature Directors Meeting that we scheduled for Wednesday night. I also began photoshopping all of the images needed for the animated sponsors slide as well as sequencing/layering them within AfterEffects. I am still waiting to receive all of the UNCW-oriented sponsor logos to further progress my work on this animation.
On Wednesday, I added the sound effects for the V6 Trailer Animation and uploaded the completed project to the Directors Page to receive feedback. For those who commented, they suggested that I slowed down some of the text movements to allow ample time for viewers to read it. I also researched how to act as a Moderator for a conference. I found two helpful articles on this subject, which are listed below:
"How to Moderate a Panel Like a Pro"
https://hbr.org/2013/05/how-to-moderate-a-panel-like-a
"How to Successfully Moderate a Conference: A Comprehensive Guide"
http://www.web-strategist.com/blog/2008/01/30/how-to-successfully-moderate-a-conference-panel-a-comprehensive-guide/
These articles allowed me to develop in-depth questions before my meeting with Dr. Kase. His advice was very helpful. Dr. Kase emphasized that we should not dictate the conversation during the conference block, but to fuel conversation between the audience, the panels, and even amongst the panelists themselves. Rebecca and I are now more comfortable with our role.
On Thursday, I made the changes asked for the V6 Trailer animation and uploaded the intro and event detail mp4 files to the Art Department Folder-->V6 Animation-->V6 Trailer Animations.
On Friday, I updated the Assignment Schedule after receiving (some very late) art requests. I sent my department a link to the updated Assignment Schedule spreadsheet and required each person to respond that they viewed it. I also began a rough on Design 1 for the Event Slides. It is Melies-inspired, depicting some images from A Trip to the Moon. This design is reminiscent of Michelle's badge design, nodding to a hyper-realism look of the UFOs and planets.
On Saturday, Michelle, Zoe, and I had a Marketing/Art meeting to discuss the remaining details needed for the Program, wording required for the Event Slides, and how to organize the Program. Michelle also gave me great advice on how to polish Design 1 of my Event Slides. I worked on this design for most of the day and finally completed it. I am very happy with how it turned out and I hope the class will allow it to be used for the event. I also began drafting ideas for Design 2 of the Event Slides. This design will hold true to Michelle's art deco approach for the Event Poster and Program. I plan on including a silhouette of a cityscape, a UFO, and a beam that will highlight the Event Slide's topic.
On Sunday, I completed my second design for the Event Slides. This design, like I planned, stays similar to Michelle's Event Poster design. I finished a sample "Welcome" slide, "Film Block 1" slide, and "Non-UNCW sponsors 2nd tier" slide for each of my designs. I also completed my Event Slide Powerpoint, which I will be presenting this coming Tuesday.
On Monday, we had an Art Department meeting where we discussed improvements needed for the website and went over Tyler's progress with the After Party Installation. Michelle and I also began discussing the format needed for the program and we plan on having an individual meeting about this on Wednesday to finalize the program.

Week 10
On Tuesday, I emailed Dr. Kase to set up a meeting to discuss my role as the Conference Block Moderator. Rebecca and I will be meeting with him on Wednesday, March 23rd, at 4pm. I also emailed Aaron about taking the Visions6 staff photo. We scheduled this for April 5th at the beginning of class.
On Wednesday, I created a Manual Quiz for both Tyler and Carson. In creating this, I noticed how much both the Animation and Website manuals are lacking in clear/detailed instructions.
On Thursday, I received printing Badge quotes from Evonne. For badges with color on the front and B&W on the back the amount of 250 would cost $60.68, the amount of 300 would cost $70.22, and the amount of 350 would cost $80.76. For badges that are all color the amount of 250 would cost $91.31, the amount of 300 would cost $106.11, and the amount of 350 would cost $122.48. After I received this quote I updated the V6 Spring Printing Spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LiIiAI3nal5whjIlge-wZ1qDZ6mqA6KprqjC5nm68HY/edit#gid=0) and the V6 Printing and Purchasing Manual (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1B2S6sKSNwGVUQKhP-3h67iWuC-HADTZpE0UXXrhcZu8/edit).
On Friday, I collected the Manual quiz grades from the Art Department. I also continued my work on the V6 Trailer animation by scouting for sound. It is extremely difficult to find audio suitable to what I want. So far I have looked through http://soundbible.com/ and http://freemusicarchive.org/. A friend of mine also recommended https://musopen.org/ so I will look through that as well.
On Sunday, I emailed Shannon the Manual quiz grades for the Art Department. I also updated the V6 Art Scheduling Manual, which can be viewed here (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CiQHDUWOgP70-uiDnRPk9vazicHqv7swzqMukY6T28k/edit). I included how I created an Art Assignment Spreadsheet in addition to the Google Calendar to clarify due dates and assignment details. For the manual, I also went into detail about what needs to be included in the spreadsheet, a screencap of my spreadsheet, and the effectiveness of color-coding.
On Monday, we changed our Art Department Meeting to this day because conflicts arose due to availability on Saturdays. Unfortunately this means that Marketing and Art will no longer be able to meet together, but Zoe, Michelle, and I have decided to meet on our own to discuss our joint Departments before the Directors meeting on Friday. We will look over the website with Carson and discuss the roll-out schedule with him. Tyler will be presenting us his progress regarding the After-Party installation as well as the presentation he has prepared for Tuesday's class.

After I received this quote I updated the V6 Spring Printing Spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1LiIiAI3nal5whjIlge-wZ1qDZ6mqA6KprqjC5nm68HY/edit#gid=0) and the V6 Printing and Purchasing Manual (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1B2S6sKSNwGVUQKhP-3h67iWuC-HADTZpE0UXXrhcZu8/edit).
On Friday, I collected the Manual quiz grades from the Art Department. I also continued my work on the V6 Trailer animation by scouting for sound. It is extremely difficult to find audio suitable to what I want. So far I have looked through http://soundbible.com/ and http://freemusicarchive.org/. A friend of mine also recommended https://musopen.org/ so I will look through that as well.
On Sunday, I emailed Shannon the Manual quiz grades for the Art Department. I also updated the V6 Art Scheduling Manual, which can be viewed here (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CiQHDUWOgP70-uiDnRPk9vazicHqv7swzqMukY6T28k/edit). I included how I created an Art Assignment Spreadsheet in addition to the Google Calendar to clarify due dates and assignment details. For the manual, I also went into detail about what needs to be included in the spreadsheet, a screencap of my spreadsheet, and the effectiveness of color-coding.
On Monday, we changed our Art Department Meeting to this day because conflicts arose due to availability on Saturdays. Unfortunately this means that Marketing and Art will no longer be able to meet together, but Zoe, Michelle, and I have decided to meet on our own to discuss our joint Departments before the Directors meeting on Friday. We will look over the website with Carson and discuss the roll-out schedule with him. Tyler will be presenting us his progress regarding the After-Party installation as well as the presentation he has prepared for Tuesday's class.
