What is your final Themester
project about?
I am creating a slideshow of everything that Jordan and I
have taken photos of for the Themester throughout the semester. Then I will choose the ones that are the
most aesthetically pleasing and have a lot of student involvement.
I will try to get a variety of photos from throughout the Themester.
How does your project
differ from Jordan’s?
My project is more focused on the photography aspect, which I
really enjoy, while Jordan took more of the videography path with her project.
Where can people find
this slideshow?
It will be posted on the Themester website. This project is
done every Themester by the interns so if you click on past Themesters there will
be a slideshow like what I will be compiling. You can go back and see what
events have occurred in past years and how this year's will be formatted.
Will this be
difficult to create?
It is technically simple, but going through all of the photos is pretty time intensive.
How has it been to be
the photography intern?
It has been really interesting to get involved more with campus
and go to a lot of the events. The challenge is to get a variety of photos when
many of the events are the same set up. My favorite event was in the theater
department titled "Women at Work on the Musical", it was about the history of women in choreography.

What is your final Themester
project?
My final project is going to be a video titled something
like “what is Themester” and the video will introduce the idea of Themester and
prompt people to investigate more into the different opportunities it offers. It
will encompass a lot of slow motion imagery with a background narration. I will
try and incorporate all that Themester is and try to recruit a narrator to
explain all of the different aspects.
Have you used video editing skills before in Themester?
No this is the first time but I am excited because I have taken a lot of classes on it. Also, I enjoy editing videos more than editing photos.
How is the
photography internship through the Themester?
I liked it a lot actually, I love that it takes me to events
that I might not have thought about going before. I have a lot of fun at the
events and taking photos at them is just an extra bonus. My favorite event was
the limestone carvers because it was really interactive. With this internship
you get to practice your photography skills and it is really good practice to
take pictures during an event. It is good practice to interact with your
subjects as well. Plus, there are many opportunities work with different types of lighting.
Where will this video
be available?
I hope that it will be available on the website, that
is what I have been envisioning for the content to be sort of an entrance into the
site and the program in general.
