International Studies Association Fall 2016

Fall 2016

The International Studies Association (ISA), is an organization made up of more than 6,000 members worldwide including scholars, professors, students, and ambassadors. The purpose of ISA is to promote research and education in the field of international affairs and to provide opportunities for networking and collaboration between people that share an interest in the subject.

Over the course of the Fall 2016 semester, our team divided and conquered in order to accomplish three main tasks. Our first objective was utilizing the footage from the previous semester to create a series of eleven short videos to be shared on ISA’s social media channels to get their members excited about the upcoming conference. The other half of the team worked on the development of a “How to Make a Poster” animated video, to help ISA’s members create interesting and compelling posters when presenting to their colleagues at the conference.
For our final task, our team was hard at work preparing for the trip to ISA’s annual conference in Baltimore, which was held in March of 2017. While there we filmed sessions of the conference and video interviews with ISA members. The content will be packaged to be used on ISA’s digital channels. We met with the client multiple times to go over the logistics of sending our team to the conference. To ensure we were adequately prepared, we created a list of equipment that would be needed during the trip, a detailed schedule of tasks and responsibilities, as well as an official roster of who would be traveling in pre-production for Baltimore.
