It's raining hearts! 2/11/12

This past week was brought about with a joyous amount of readings, exams, and work.  Oh what a fun semester it's been!

Monday started with a meeting between the AD's and Shannon where we went over departmental updates (1.5 hours.)  That night I helped Jon locate emails and contacts for some of the new invitationals (45 min.)   I also had a long meeting with After party, hospitality, and video race to go over swag bags, community outreach strategies, AP logistics, and the Vrace functionalities. (1.5 hours)

I am continuing my search by speaking to numerous t-shirt companies to get the best price on t-shirts.  These t-shirts will be ordered over SB.  We will be cross promoting visions with the Carolina Film and Video Festival this year and we got their press release and logos to advertise the festival.

Friday I met with Jons team to discuss the VR poster with Brianna, our hope is to get these posters to Evonne by Tuesday. (1 hour)

The majority of my weekend was spent reading our final papers which will be discussed in class tomorrow. (3 hours)

Visions: week ending 2*3*13

Monday:
 The start of Monday proved to be a busy one.  We had our weekly AD meeting to go over necessary updates(1.5 hours) after I met with Shannon to discuss the budget and make changes.  We moved some of the funds around so everything balanced out. (1.5 hours)  that night we also had our department meetings (1.5 hours) where I met with After Party, Video Race, and Hospitality.  Jon and Brianna also came to go over any Video Race deadlines.

Over the weekend I had made contact with Zulma Terrones, who was a guest at Visions last year and is now a administrative assistant for vendors and we have been discussing T-shirt prices.  I am trying to find t-shirts around $5-6 a piece so we can cut back on some of our costs. I have also been in contact with Cindy for CFVF,  she said passes are not a problem for visions staff and I sent her all of the 6 films that will be playing at Visions in order. The schedule is now up on their website. (1 hour)

In class I collected $25 from most of the staff and created a budget for this so all your money is now logged :)

I spoke with Kristin Shelton this week at ARAMARK and gave er the finalized sponsorship proposal. She said it looked great! (Thanks Jon) and Aramark will probably donate some amount to us this year.  After I made a catering budget with projected cost to see exactly what we can afford. (1 hour)

Thursday and Friday were spent watching the film submissions for this week (2.5 hours) I hope we get some docs in because we are lacking in that department.
