As I spend more time here, I am introduced to more aspects of the studio that help to give a better sense of the bigger picture. This week I was able to gather a few more perspectives. One opportunity for this was in attending a meeting with the city regarding the Digital Divide project. It was interesting to see a piece of the puzzle for that project that I do not play a direct part in. At the meeting I noticed that while everyone seemed to have the same objectives, they were all coming at it from their constituencies priorities and/or area of expertise. While this is to be expected, it is one of the challenges that often arises when working on a project with so many collaborators. It does seem like at the core everyone involved genuinely hopes to make this happen for the betterment of the community being served, which I think in the end is what makes or breaks a program. I am also excited about the opportunity to learn a new skill in working with the program Quirk to modify some of the forms used by CCTV. I always enjoy challenging myself to grow in my computer skills, and knowing that it is helping to improve an aspect of what we do here will be a great source of added motivation. Together with some experience I hope to get creating some radio programming I feel like I am building a versatile parameter of interests that I am excited about pursuing for the length of my time here at CCTV. That's it for this week, and as for this weekend...I Still Believe!!!
