Communication Arts Showcase

Good Evening, Ladies!

Tonight I had my Communication Arts Showcase!! All of the COM seniors had the opportunity to talk about their internship sites to the campus community. We had poster presentations set up outside of Knott auditorium and faculty, staff, and other students walked around and got to hear the stories about what we've been doing this past semester!

I've mentioned it before on here but I will say it again, I am a promotions and events intern with 98 Rock. Here is a picture of me next to my poster presentation table:



Many majors have similar showcases for their seniors, so it's definitely something to look forward to as a Notre Dame student! After the poster board presentations, the members of AWC (The Association of Women in Communications) were given certificates and the seniors were awarded their cords they will be able to wear at Commencement! I can't wait!

Have a good night!

Class Projects

It's time again for another look into what's happening in my life! These past few weeks have been filled with working on class projects! My Media Literacy class is filming an Oral History on the introduction of media (radio, film, and television specifically). I have found our interviewees and the next step is to film! I will hopefully have the link for you when it is all said and done.

For my Digital & Social Media Skills course we are working on a social media campaign for the rest of the semester! My friend Shy and I are in the same group and came up with "Signature Cause." Our campaign is highlighting fashion brands (clothing, jewelry, and cosmetics) that give back to a cause in some way! Our first few weeks have been pretty successful! This week we are highlighting Under Armour! We made a fun video with a current NDMU athlete talking about the brand! I'm sure you've all seen the "Things _____ People say" videos. We had some fun with that theme! Check it out:


Then for my practicum class we will be having our Communication Arts Showcase next Thursday, April 26th!! This event if for the Com Arts seniors to showcase what they have done at their internship sites as well as different projects they've completed over their Notre Dame careers! I have to complete a tri-fold poster for that as well!

I only have 16 more days of classes left! It's hard to believe because I've been so busy with different class assignments (as you can see!). I'm doing my best to savor these last few days walking around campus in the warmer weather! Hope you all are doing well! :)

Easter Break

Time for another update!! Today's the last day of Easter break and I wanted to recap some of the fun things I did. I went to a concert at the Baltimore Soundstage, a great venue downtown,  and before hand I got to spend some time walking around the harbor with my boyfriend. Here's a picture of us, in our matching sunglasses haha!

  

Then on Friday I worked Orioles Opening Day for my internship. Here's a picture of what the stadium looked like before the sold out game!! 


Of course I had to dye Easter eggs as well!! I love all the bright colors of spring!


And obviously there was Easter yesterday!! Here is a picture of my oldest sister and myself before our yummy family dinner!


And in case you were wondering the Easter bunny DID visit my house! I got some tasty chocolate in my basket! Lucky me! I hope you all are doing well and enjoyed the holiday.
