Hey guys,
Okay so we actually made a lot of progress in our 20 minute meeting this Wednesday! This email is a little lengthy but PLEASE read all the way thru!! Thanks. Especially you Alex… 
Here’s what we established on Wednesday either during the meeting or shortly after:
—–This Saturday at 5pm we will be having a zombie movie viewing in building 3 of the Village, Suite 102…One or two movies tops because we realize you guys have other stuff you wanna do, but this will help us get some themes we want to pursue when we start writing our script. IT IS STRONGLY ENCOURAGED FOR YOU TO ATTEND IF YOU WANT TO BE PART OF THE SCRIPT WRITING COMMITTEE simply because we will be deciding what themes we want to pursue, and it’s just easier if everyone involved is on the same page.
Thank you Dr. McEwan for your suggestion of the bio/chem experiment gone wrong, which would produce the zombie epidemic. I think we can really use that to our advantage.
—–Our meeting next Wednesday will be located in WALSON 111. This way we can give those of you interested a quick demonstration of how to use the media services camaras, and then a quick editing lesson!! This part of the meeting will take place toward the end so anyone who knows all this stuff can go about their lives.
One thing to think about for next meeting—we need to set up Committees for the different areas of preproduction of our zombie movie. These areas include:
-Writing (we figured out who wants to write, but does anyone want to be in charge of this committee?)
-location scouting
-FUNDRAISING
Being in charge of one of these committees will entail setting up meeting times to accomplish tasks. This is true for all areas, but whoever is in charge of fundraising will have to sign out tables in seegers and brainstorm for fundraiser ideas and what not.
If you want to be in charge of one of these committees, prepare an explanation of why you think you would be awesome doing it, and we’ll have an informal election to appoint these committee heads. These areas can also be something we deal with during meeting times if you guys think you’ll be too busy with course work to be in charge of one of these areas, but if you can handle it, go for it! Even though we are doing this as a silly club effort, it could still be something you can use to beef up your resume for extracurricular activities. And this will be a semester long project, so we’ll be able to spread this stuff out over the next few months—so consider it! If you decide to be in charge of fundraising we will make you club treasurer since we don’t have one currently…
Speaking of fundraising, ALEX, do we need to do a fundraiser before we can approach student council for funding since we did two fundraisers last semester?? and since we were finally recognized at the END of the semester? Let me know.
I think this can be a lot of fun, but clearly there will have to be some effort involved. I hope you guys are as excited as i am about doing this!!
Don’t forget about the music video challenge if you guys have some free time!
Until next time,
Alana!
