I am so excited to be working on this year's
Visions Film Festival & Conference as a Video Race Co-Coordinator! From
this job, I hope to be able to gain so much experience and knowledge about what
it takes to plan an event, which will be important for producing as well. For
my job, it is first important to start brainstorming with Aedan, my fellow
coordinator, as soon as possible! Currently, I have already started thinking of
ways to incorporate our fun space theme into this year's video race! In order
to make sure this event is successful, we must budget accordingly for the
following items: T-shirts, dye, props, etc. Dustin and Ashley, the previous
coordinators, left a bunch of useful information that can save Aedan and me
lots of money. They mentioned how they had staff members each bring in their
own prop which can be utilized during the video race. I also read about how
they created tie-dye shirts for their teams, but diluted the dye so that they
could dye more than two T-shirts. I love the amount of resourcefulness that
goes into being a Video Race co-coordinator, because in the film world we are
typically faced with situations in which we need to make the most of what is
available to us. I know that we also must keep locations and liability in
consideration and be sure to secure those rights from Pamela Elliot. We are
also responsible for having the rules and regulations of the race outlined
prior to contacting Pam Elliot for permission. I feel that this job will be a
great fit for me because I love to work with people and brainstorm new ideas
while being part of such a fun event. I can't wait to see how Visions can
benefit me, and how our work will pay off at the festival!
