It is mid-October and we are still hoping to shoot more video training sessions in the field before winter. Currently we have two of them shot. The goal is for three. We have also talked about shooting a total of four, possibly doing one in the spring. These instructional videos will be about 20-30 minutes in length.

I loved the vid! What's that tune you put in it? It's very catchy. I really need to come visit you guys one of these days...

Reviewed the current equipment at NESFP, and created a wishlist of new equipment that I feel would benefit the organization in their media expansion. New Equipment: digital HD camcorder (Canon VIXIA HF S10), one External Hard Drive (G-Technology 1TB G-Raid3), an external Disk Burner (LaCie d2 Blu-ray Drive), blank disks and a spare battery for the camera.

Month 11: Final Workshops and Facility Recommendations

Categories:

In May/June, I offered several training workshops, likely the last round of dedicated sessions as my year of VISTA service comes to a close. The remainder of my year will be devoted to compiling the training materials I've written, and writing the manuals I haven't had time to compose yet.

Month 9: Curriculum & Program Development

Categories:

Through March-April, a very intense month, I guided several initiatives to create new training programs for youth and adults, to build volunteer activities at the IMC, and to make general improvements to our facilities.

Month 7: Inauguration Video Diary & IMC FILM FEST 2009

Categories:

Jan-Feb began a two month period in which both Nicole and I barely took a day off - no exaggeration.

Month 5: Independence + Collaboration = Success

Categories:

The past month was probably the most successful for my VISTA project so far. While this was due in no small part to the groundwork of the previous months, over the course of only the last few weeks I trained (trainers and students), recruited volunteers, made new community contacts, and produced media.

A Swing State Update

This story takes place in Ohio. I know some of you coastal VISTAs are longing for more Ohio news and charming Midwestern commentary, like you were getting before the election. Perfect timing for me to wake from my procrastination hibernation and write my very first field report!

Month 2: Out in the community already (“Hi public, we’re the media… but you can trust us.”)

Categories:

I am submitting two reports at once this time. The past two months were so busy that there was little time to reflect or to write about what was going on.
