Monday, November 19, we had our usual Monday morning meeting. We discussed the layout edits that had been made as well as the other ways that people can start getting involved. We can now log onto the server and start dropping in pictures from events for the layout and we are also looking for people interested in writing copy for us! Bob told us recently that he can offer $10 for every usable piece of copy that we get and Tosha has scheduled an interest meeting on Monday, the 26th. Hopefully we will get some interest! This was one hour.
Following the meeting, I stayed in the Interlachen office and began dropping photos in for the pages on the layout. I managed to get done with 2 or 3 pages before Shannah and I realized that we had some issues with our master pages. So I went back and fixed those problems and continued dropping in pictures. I did this for two hours and then had to stop to work on something for class.

October 22-November 12 (5.5 hours)
It has been WAY too long since I've remembered to blog, so I have plenty of catching up on hours to do.

Today there was the weekly Interlachen meeting at 10:40 in the office, as usual. We discussed the events for the week, addressed due dates coming up, and threw out the idea of everyone doing a practice journaling project on a building on campus. These are not necessarily stories to go into the yearbook, however there is definitely the potential if someone turns out good enough and wants it to be included. The group seemed to be interested in the idea and we are planning to assign buildings at a later date.

Tonight we had a meeting with Dawn Drake, Bob's wife, to discuss layout and digital scrapbooking. Dawn had chosen some online scrapbook layouts and put them into a powerpoint presentation, both layouts that she liked and didn't like so much. As she went through the presentation the staff in attendance, Dawn, and Bob all discussed what we liked and what we wouldn't like for our yearbook and took note of these things as well. All in all it seemed to be a productive night and I think it gave everyone an idea of what we may be looking for in layout this year.
This meeting began at 6:30pm and ended around 8:00pm if I'm not mistaken.

We met again for Interlachen today in the office and assigned events for the week. The events were not really a daunting list this week, so we got through the meeting fairly quickly. Shannah and I addressed needing to meet with the editors soon to find out where everyone stands on their work so far. Overall it was a slightly lackluster meeting, but we did get assignments out and the issues addressed.

At the Interlachen meeting we assigned our usual shoots, as well as the building stories. As we all know Florida Southern is very famous for having its ghost stories and for its Frank Lloyd Wright architecture, which is unique to our campus. For these reasons, Shannah had decided that she thought it would be cool to practice our journaling style of writing by researching the buildings on campus. Everyone signed up for a building that they wanted to work on and they are to write up a story in a journal type of form and turn it back in to the editors. We are really looking forward to seeing what the staff can do! We also assigned 3 unique interview/photoshoot assignments. The assignment is to interview an athlete on campus who is assigned to you and schedule a photoshoot so that we can feature them in our sports section of the book this year.

Another Interlachen meeting was today and we had a very small turnout. We checked the status on the sports interviews and photoshoots with those who were at the meeting, talked about/looked at some early designs for layout, and how we can make them better. We also talked about the idea of adopting an "angel" for the holidays from the SGA Angel Tree. We decided that we wanted to do this and make some child's holiday better, so Shannah went to pick up an angel for us to provide for :) We are really excited to make our first venture into community service with Interlachen!
