Week 15 Update:

Here is some insights of my internship IG account & my deliverable IG account from the past week!

I learned that many of the accounts who interact with both accounts are mostly non-followers, which is better than no interaction!

I noticed whenever I posted info on HonCC Faculty and Staff members I would tend to get more interactions with the post. It could be because previous students or alumni recognize the person I interviewed or found the information useful/interesting.

Deliverable: This past weekend has been overwhelming. With the holidays coming up and family/friends visiting from out of town, I have not had enough time to work on my final interview film to edit! I finished my IG carousel layout edit for my @makeyourmove.cm IG account, but not the final video portion. It is really crunch time with finals, projects, and exams. It's honestly worse because Thanksgiving is coming up and finding the time to balance work, school, and family/friends has been crazy. I will try to get my film done by tomorrow so I can have something to post for my IG feed. But I want it to be good because the person I interviewed is a great academic counselor and deserves that type of representation within the video.

Internship: So far, I am almost complete with my internship hours with just 20-30 hours to go. I've learn that I need to keep up with my communication skills and update other team members I work with about the process for my designs and IG posts needed to promo events.

I was surprised that the reel I made for HonCC Volleyball had 2,584 views so far. Helping promote off campus events that are free for students is important so others know they can be a part of something during their time at HonCC.

Deliverable: I finally finished my interview film edits with Nalea, a full time student at LCC and a student leader at HonCC. During my interview edits, there were some words I had to cut out like "uh" and "like". The interview process went well, my interviewee knew what she wanted to talk about before hand and I helped her get comfortable by talking about her experiences at HonCC which made it worth being a part of the community.

Internship: This week, I was able to take come life footage of the off campus volleyball game with our HonCC students playing against the other community colleges. I was able to take some action shots and promoting it on the honcc_sld IG story page. I almost got hit with the volleyball one too many times while capturing footage, so I need to make sure I am completely aware of my surrounds while taking photos and videos at the same time.

I think that posting in the evening times gives the most views for posts/videos since people tend to be relaxing (aka on their phones).

Week 11 deliverable update: I am making the finishing touches for my student interview with Brigitte. She works 4-5 jobs a week for a part time student at Honolulu CC! I wanted to be sure I got the correct spelling for the companies she works with and her job titles.

This past week was a struggle since I was sick for about 6 days and couldn't bring myself to actually work on more content for my IG page. My deliverable IG page has been growing more each week with a couple of accounts being engaged with my posts.

Check out my IG interview with Jason here:

Week 10 mid-week update: I’ve gotten sick this past weekend (negative for covid, positive for a cold). For the past 4 days I’ve been coughing up a lung, drinking lots of tea, and sleeping. When I find the energy during the day, I’ve been working on next week’s video edits.

For Jason’s video, I realized he says the word like a lot and I’m trying my best to edit out those extra words that are not needed within the interview.

I have noticed there has been an increase of account reaches within my IG deliverable (@makeyourmove.cm). There has been a small amount of follows and likes for my content on Instagram, which overall, I think it is a good thing.

I also published my interview video with Kristine that is now live on IG @makeyourmove.cm! Please check it out here

Deliverable Update: working on next week’s film edit featuring a HonCC student. I found it easier to edit all my filming content on my iPad on CapCut App instead of an Adobe Program.

This week, I have been focusing on creating more reel content for my internship's IG account (@honcc_sld) in order to get more interactions and feedback from IG accounts who are students/alumni. We have been working on engaging with the HonCC community by help promoting on campus events such as HonCC Fashion Society's Bake Sale. Since HonCC has never had a bake sale since COVID-19, I decided to take this opportunity to showcase in person events such as a bake sale to help promote the Fashion Society club and help spread the word on social media.

Deliverable: This week, I have been going back and forth with juggling the other interview IG posts so I don't get stuck with my creativity. The Instagram has gained more follows since cross promoting with my internship's IG (@honcc_sld). I have also finished posting my interview with Professor Patterson in IG (@makeyourmove.cm)

I have noticed that the HonCC faculty and staff have a lot of knowledge and experiences to share and I want to include as much of it as possible into my short videos. So, for Professor Patterson's interview came up to 7 minutes in length. There has been an increase of engagement when cross promoting my deliverable videos and images with my internship IG account (@honcc_sld)

Internship: I have promoted a lot of content and events going on in the month of October. I learned that I need to work on communicating with my team members in order to get their content out at a timely manner.

Overall, there has been different projects going on and I am doing my best with keeping on track with the due dates. I also have noticed an increase in accounts reached when cross promoting with the @honolulucc IG account which reached a different accounts that follow it.

Deliverable: I've been working on editing my interview videos for this week and next week. I am also been working on the IG carousel for each interviewee. I have made a schedule for myself to edit 1-2 videos per week so I can get it reviewed by Sharla and post it the following week. In the meantime, I have been posting motivational type content on my IG makeyourmove.cm

Internship: This past week, I've been creating promotional items for events happening on campus such as Alejandro's Food Truck for Taco Day. We were able to promote the event and give out 100 tacos free to HonCC students. Since creating reels and interactive posts for students on my internship's IG honcc_sld, there has been an increase of accounts insights reached within the past 30 days (2.7K non followers).

I've interviewed a few of the HonCC Community and Alumni. So far I've been gathering the information from each of my interviewees and sorting them by their own folders digitally. I have 3 more interviews to do this week. And next week I plan to edit and design the short videos and slideshows to post on Instagram.

This past weekend I interviewed myself to kick off the interviews for the HonCC Community and created a collage of the motivation/organization questions and answers for IG carousel slides :)

This week I worked on printing and branding for my internship's event Ho'olaulea. It is a campus event that focuses on sustainability. For the past couple of weeks I've been working on sticker design and documenting the process for this project. The sticker design is to help brand re-usable containers given to HonCC Community who participate in the event.

This week and last week has been spent communicating with my interviewees. I sent out emails, scheduled meetings, and sent out my interview Q&A google docs for each interviewees. So far I have 8 people total:

1 HonCC Staff

1 HonCC Faculty

3 HonCC Alumni

3 current HonCC students

I also worked on the type of layout style I want for my IG posts and video reels. I will be having atleast 2-4 interviews coming up this week and next week so I can give myself time to edit and post every other week.

I have been making bi-weekly posts on my deliverable IG

This week, my Internship at HonCC Student Life hosted a hybrid bingo day in honor of Constitution Day. We also invited Shaka Bowls, a local food truck, to give HonCC students a chance to try different foods. I created a reel to show a glimpse of what people have missed out on HonCC campus which hopefully entices students to show up to school just for a specific event.

I've noticed by creating short images and videos of people/activity, there has been a boost of likes and engagement. Below is the link to reel for Constitution Day Bingo & Truck Stop Event ft. Shaka Bowls.
