Hello There Bubblers!
As an online form of media one of our advantages over print is that we get to play around with Audio and Video! The Bubble Magazine is looking for fresh new talent for our four monthly 5-minute video spots!
If you love to be in front of the camera, have awesome stage presence and always wanted to have your own show, then this just might be the gig for you. We have four “video themes” but it is up to you all to decide on the angle of your show.
Chosen applicants will win a monthly video-show-spot, an expose interview in the October issue and secret surprise!
The themes are:
· News/Politics (International/national)- We are looking for a professional, anchor style production, add your own flair, be as creative as possible but remember you’re news anchors (and I’m not talking Ron Burgundy).
· Pop/consumer culture/College life- Sharp, witty, funny, youthful, sarcastic (but not crass), this video will be a commentary on social/consumer/pop culture issues. You can take this in many ways from talk show style like Chelsea Lately, Vh1 Best week ever, or video blogger style like Sarah Haskins (Google them for examples) Again be creative and have fun!
· Sports-Give Wheaton a glimpse of Sports @ Wheaton and beyond. Video clips, over views, montage, mini-interviews, on the field coverage. You’re a sports anchor but this is your Video show so make it exciting, fun and entertaining.
· Arts and Style - This spot will be creative genius. Interviews from artists. Showcases of new exhibits, art @ Wheaton and in the media and hopefully some on-the field footage! And premiers of Wheaton animations, clips of student produced movies and theater.
