I'm not sure if I'm actually ahead in thinking about my internship project or not. But after the first day, my mentor and I had already decided, basically, what my internship project was going to be. Due to my love of film, and that being an area that I am comfortable working in/with, we decided that my internship project should definably be film based. And since Playwrights is in need of a little video help, I was happy to put forth my knowledge.
I will be creating a kind of promotional video for Playwrights Project including all the projects they have going on as well as some information about he people and the organization it's self. I have been given a lot of research material, like video examples and hours of play and project footage. And I am really excited to start work on it my second week.
My plan right now is to get short interviews from each of the employees here in the office and get them to talk a little bit about themselves and the programs. Then I will also include some footage of the projects and at the end, all of the contact information on Playwrights and what they are doing.
On the side I will also being helping with some marketing, like social media and general ideas that I have to help get their name out into the world they are trying to reach.
I am super excited to start work, and I'm really hoping that my mentor will like my plan for the project. Looking forward to going home tonight, but also working next week. Much hope.
