WANTED: Multimedia Volunteer/Intern(s) Small Stipend Available for Lead Volunteer
http://www.e-democracy.org
-------------------------------------------------E-Democracy.Org is the midst of an exciting project to put together our story in a multimedia format using Flash with text, photo, illustration, audio, and video elements.
Working title: The E-Democracy Experience
The focus of the online presentation will be our dynamic local Issues
Forums - Winona, St. Paul, and Minneapolis. We need your help to bring them to life by displaying the real people and places tied to our civic discussions.
This will be part of a larger -international- pilot project that will soon be announced. With the E-Democracy Experience, we will be in a better position to promote and expand our forums locally, recruit new volunteers and Forum Managers, and share our experiences with other communities.
If you have the skills and time to help us produce a Flash presentation that explains how our forums work and can convey the stories of our participants with a bit of new video and audio, your involvement will be vital.
Be part of our multimedia team.
We have a quick timeline and will start work in the next ten days. While we need fully volunteer hours from a handful of talented participants on our forums (become involved to make sure the story of your favorite forum is told well), if we find a good match, we have up to $500 available for one or two lead volunteers/interns with the time and some demonstrated multimedia experience. The internship need not be for credit.
So, if you have any interest OR experience with Flash animation, digital video, or online multimedia projects AND are interested in helping us with this exciting project in any way, please let us know:
