*Things from last week*

- Article Compilation - Deb B (not present) and Matt (not present):
- Deb and Matt working to compile articles about OB from the last 5
months

- Website campaign Feature - Brett:
- Brought it to OBIT
- OBIT'd like to make sure that whoever is working on this feature
will be meeting with / working with OBIT so that there's no website
confusion
- Questions: How are campaigns selected? Who will create the content
for each campaign?
- Maybe ask each group that is spearheading
- Occupy the T, Vita Urbana, Strike, M17,
- *We'll create a Task Force to work on this issue*

*Status of YouTube Account - Eli (rollover)*

*Daily Digest Volunteer - Gunner (rollover)*

- Anna interested in picking up the Daily Digest again
- Has been working with Inreach / Info, which would be able to take
on the Daily Digest again
- Anna will need blog access
- Will it be duplicative of the Rundown?
- John: No
- Daily vs. weekly vs. a few times a week (such as post-GA? Rollover
proposals that will be coming up at the next GA?)
- Liaison between Anna and Media WG and Facilitation: Farhad

*Superform Guidelines - Dan*

- *We'll send it out over the listserv and workshop it*
- *Just kidding, we changed this later*

*Open House - Nick*

- If Media WG will be attending the Open House on April 2, we'll need to
furnish a short description.
- Used the opening sentence of the mission statement
- Also, Nick needs help doing outreach to talk to church groups,
knitting clubs, book clubs, etc.

*FAWG and Media - Gunner (rollover)*

*Volunteers - John*

- If people would like to volunteer for Media WG, John would like to
take point so that we can make sure to keep our Media team strong; right
now, we're not doing enough to expand; we need new faces!
- John, in particular, will need assistance with the Rundown
- Farhad: Inreach/Info will be more active in bringing in volunteers;
Info had been a great intro for volunteers
- Terra may also be attempting to coordinate volunteers
- Deb: We should be proactive about having someone to outreach to
volunteers when we have GAs outside, big events, etc.
- *Farhad: Look into creating a volunteer information form on the website
*
- We need to make sure that if we have people showing up for meetings to
give them some kind of assignment—people show up to WG meetings looking for
something to do!
- Joshua has a lot of media contact lists; should we go through the list
and try to contact them?
- John: We also need fresh contacts
- *Joshua will send contact info to John; John will start reaching out
to people*
- Farhad: Volunteers is a "needs and resources" question—what do we need
volunteers for?
- Multimedia
- *Joshua will send out a Google Doc for us to collaborate on: "Where do
we need people?" -*Data will be collected, presented, and analyzed
- Idea: mentor folks… if we have new volunteers, they should be shown
how to complete the task

*Rebooting Multimedia - Rene*

- If an action happens, there needs to be video coverage! We need
4-minute video clips of actions that get out AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE
- We need to archive these pieces of footage
- Farhad: Two challenges…getting out work from Media WG, and
coordinating and publicizing people who send us their own footage
- We also need to figure other things out, like who owns the footage?
- Creative commons!
- Deb: Maybe publicize some trainings, such as on video editing!
- Can we publicize OBTV trainings?
- Yes, but those are also more "specialized" equipment, which perhaps
a lot of people may not have access to
- *Bil and Deb and Rene will be collaborating to plan a training*
- *Rene will take point on rebooting the multimedia bubble!*

*Youtube Issues - Eli (rollover)*

*Post-event Blog posting - Josh*

- These may be a capacity problem, not a guideline problem
- Frequently, we end up having blog posts sit in limbo, sometimes
without them being assigned
- This is somewhat a response to autonomous posting and publishing
- We also need to make sure that they get out as quickly as possible
- Counterpoint - we should update as frequently as possible, whether
they're old or not
- We need to figure out editing better, too
- We need teams of two, not group editing
- In general, we need a universal set of guidelines that can kind of be
something that can be referenced
- We don't have enough writers… we need more who can go to events and
then write about that event
- PROPOSAL: We need to try to not bite off more than we can chew
- If we do post-event followup, it should be mainly in the form of
photos and video
- Counterpoint: This is out history; we should write about it as much
as possible
- Also, posts can be backdated—they don't need to show up on the
front page!
- *Farhad, Josh, Dan will create a task force to figure out guidelines*
- On post-event guidelines, we need to make sure to explain expectations
to writers
- We'll also want to have new folks start off as "contributor" status on
the blog

*Upcoming events*

- Youth Jobs Rally
- We don't know anything about it and it's tomorrow, so there's not
enough lead-time to get this done
- Occupy Lent:
- Press release has already been written
- Should it be sent out for the first time, or should it wait
until after the second time?
- Every Friday during Lent at the Bank of America at 8am
- Liturgy of repentance…
- There's nothing that needs to be done… the press release will be
sent out ASAP
- Josh wil contact David re: video
- Dan will send out livestream info
- Deb - photographer
- Occupy the MBTA, 12pm, Copley
- Josh = writing press release, copyedit by Deb
- Dan= HD video
- Deb = post-writing; Dan=copyedit
- Livestream is covered
- Contact = John Murphy
- Occupy the MBTA - Josh
- -We need more video footage of stories from people who share their
stories about reliance on the MBTA
- edit into 1-2 minute video, then another that's longer
- Josh will check with Jess
- Community Gathering - Decolonize to Liberate
- Press release
- Could they draft something that we could copyedit?
- *Farhad will investigate BUT WILL DO NO MORE THAN THAT*
- F29
- National action against ALEC
- Next Wednesday
- Not worth a press release unless something big happens
- But perhaps a blog post, especially if it's on the "aggregate"
- *Joshua will write an aggregate F29 piece (rollover)*
- Also include in Media Rundown

*M17 Action Spokes*

- There are a few things that we need to discuss...
- Dan is the spoke
- Resolved, that Media WG supports the idea of the Radical Revolutionary Tour and that
Media WG supports the idea of having some form of assembly, not necessarily
a GA, in a more public, accessible location on March 17</nowiki>
