EDITORIAL VISION 12th Regional Selection Conference of EYP Czech Republic ČESKÉ BUDĚJOVICE2022
For this session I am looking for 2 Editorial Assistants to assist my hard work with a tremendous amount of output I have in mind for this session, and I am also looking for 8 Media Team Members to actually make the media output even possible. I would prefer it if the Editorial Team (my 2 EAs and me) was working as a flat board; meaning we share the same amount of work amongst ourselves in a manner which fits our strengths and skills the most. This is why the questions of skills and media competence are of such importance to my Consideringvision!
the experience, I won’t be really looking much into your EYP experience outside of your sent portfolios. As long as you’ve written a proper application, I’m totally on board with the recruitment of first-time Media Team Members! The simplest answer to the question of what’s the goal of EYP media would be to create memories from the session. I do agree with it, but at this point that sentence has become so cliche in EYP’s media sphere that it had lost all depth to it.
STRUCTURE OF THE MEDIA TEAM
WHAT’S THE GOAL OF OUR MEDIA TEAM?
When you really think about it, it’s really impactful how a single photo can contribute to your EYP timeline of events. I believe that Media Teams in general are the most underrated ones at all sessions. The reasoning I find for this is because it’s more or less the same way Media Team Members operate each session. This is why, from my previous media experience, I try to incorporate Media Team Members with the rest of the participants, find innovative ways of sparking up the media work and generally making it more fun and relaxed for them to find a perfect balance between media work and fun during the session.
Hello potential applicants! First and foremost, let me introduce myself. My name is Dora, I’m 20 years old and I’ll be editing this year’s 2nd, and in total 12th Regional Selection Conference of EYP Czech Republic - České Budějovice 2022! It’s my absolute honour and pleasure to be a part of this great leadership, and I welcome all of you to apply as you won’t regret it! Without further ado, let me show you my vision for this session, so you have a better understanding of what you’re signing up for.
I remember my first time as a Media Team Member; I didn’t really know how to use a DSLR camera, how to edit photos, film videos, and so on. Everything I know today, I can thank to well-established Editorial Teams who have transferred their knowledge well and helped me to further develop my skills. This knowledge transfer is something I’d like to pay close attention to as the Editress as I want my Media Team Members to go further on the media path in EYP and to have a pleasant experience of both enjoying the thrill of the session while also learning a lot of new useful skills. This is why I want to develop a wellestablished communication between us immediately from the start!
Considering projects; I would give my Media Team Members full freedom of their “session expression” in their projects along with the professional guidance from the Editorial Team ensuring that it’s still of high quality after finished. I believe that for one’s project to be successful, one must be fully satisfied with their idea and have a certain vision in their head in order to achieve that. My plan is to make infographics for each one of the committees before the session, and to ensure at least 5 high quality media projects along with the fully developed session video.
To follow the project development, both before and during the session, I have prepared many documents with instructions and spreadsheets for brainstorming; making the project development a piece of cake if worked on on time. This is because I want to reduce the stress levels on the session, fear of deadlines or anything else that might negatively impact my team! Welfare is something I want to nurture within the Media Team, as I know it tends to get a bit stressful when there’s so much you need to take care of. We’re here to have fun without too much stress on our shoulders!
PROJECT DEVELOPMENT
What’s also important, and personally I would mention this as the main goal of the Media Team, is the knowledge transfer between the Editorial Team and their Media Team Members.
A project can be defined as a set of inputs and outputs required to achieve a particular goal. It can be both individual or collaborative within the Media Team, but what’s important is that it’s unique to you personally and used to express many different meanings (such as emotions, occurrences, messages, any other type of meaning).
To conclude what I think the goal of Media Team is, it’s surely to help each other learn and to develop new skills useful for the future, and also to create memories which other participants will cherish for the rest of their life.
