Week Ending: 1.20.13
Since the beginning of the Spring semester, my primary focus has been on securing enough abstract submissions for this year's festival, then shifting focus to film submissions, while also re-familiarizing/assimilating my team to prep for the intense semester of programming.
I'm not sure which day it was, but after we left for winter break in Dec, I sent out 300+ emails to all of the schools on the University Master Contact list, informing them of the amended abstract deadline. This took roughly 1&1/2 hrs to 2 hrs.
Sunday, January 6th: double-checked all drafts of abstract requests to be sent out to those invitationals that had not responded/submitted yet, as compiled by the PTO team and saved in my drafts folder. Tweaked and fixed all of the ones that needed work with wording and professionalism with Jon; 2 hrs.
Sunday, Jan 13 & Monday, Jan 14: guided Matt in uploading all of the abstracts to dropbox in correct format, then uploaded the rubric, making sure to create both a pages and word file, and then composed the abstract guideline directions and made them available to the class; 2 hrs. Plugged in all major PTO dates into the class syllabus via google docs, 1&1/2-2hrs.
Tuesday, Jan 15: Created the 2013 abstracts folder with all class members folders and then went through all dropbox folders and files for 2013abstracts, making sure all files/folders were present, accessible, and correctly labeled; 1 hr.
Wednesday: Read and scored 11 abstracts; 1&1/2 hrs. Created Powerpoint with Keynote top selections and sent out to all new Visions students; 30 mins. Sifted through all my different school contact lists, and sent the University Master to Marge with directions on selecting regional schools to be in contact with about video race; 30 mins. Also met with PTO team from 2-3pm.
Thursday: 8 abstracts; emailed Amanda Turner about Bald Head Island room as we've had unsuccessful contact with them last semester; 1 hr total.
Friday: Read and scored 7 abstracts; 1 hr. Went through Drafts folder on submissions@visionsfilm.org checking to make sure that all of the submissions confirmation emails had the correct information, spelling, grammar, and professionalism, and then sent out submissions confirmations emails to all students who have submitted either abstracts or films so far. Will continue to sent these out as we receive submissions; 1&1/2 hrs.
Saturday: transferred all media from my hard drive of Visions 2012 (that Shannon gave to me last semester) on to the new Visions Master Drive and began to organize. Also, uploaded all of Visions 2013 minutes to the drive and began uploading some of my PTO files that I've created/accumulated over the year so far. This is a work in progress and much of my team will be spent on the compilation and organization of this drive. 3 hrs.
Will begin logging all films onto drive in edit lab this Monday.
