Embedded Files
This was the first piece of writing I did for my publication, and I decided to cover it on a whim. Initially, there wasn't a reason besides to dip my toe into writing, but I learned some things when I wrote the brief about writing and the importance of hearing other's voices just as much as seeing their stories through photos. My goal with this brief ended up being to shed more light on the achievements in the art department, which I noticed don't get things written about a lot. After my interview with the person who put the gallery together, I wanted to choose a quote that I think would apply to many of the seniors. This brief allowed me to gain more experience in writing and interviewing.
I did this article for my publication in order to familiarize myself more with the writing process so I can be a better editor and gain some more experience when it comes to writing for events. I had been a part of this performance in the year prior, and wanted to shed some light on some of the people's pieces because a majority of the student body that is not focusing in communications doesn't go to these spoken-word performances and do not see the work that goes into them behind the scenes. I chose the mini-feature format because I wanted to add some more alt-copy content onto our website and thought it would best suit the angle of the story, which was to highlight the processes of the performers.
