I am incredibly excited to share this project with all of you. As our latest assignment for my Digital Journalism class, we teamed up with Milwaukee Neighborhood News Service to produce two slideshows focusing on charitable organization in the Milwaukee area. The first one has just been completed, and can be found here.
This slideshow is about the Children's Outing Association, which has several locations throughout Milwaukee and is ranked as one of the top charities in Wisconsin and the nation. The project focuses on COA's "Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters" program (HIPPY), and a parent, Monique Strickland, who is participating in the program with her five-year-old daughter Madison.
My partner, Liz McGovern, and I worked very hard on this project. We both took pictures, and I was responsible with asking follow-up questions during the interview. During the editing, I focused primarily on audio while Liz worked on the photos, and we worked side by side putting the finishing touches on our slides.
I will definitely use this first project as a learning experience to make our next slideshow, which will be coming in several weeks, even better.
