Overview: For our service learning project for ChattahoocheeNOW each member of our group is responsible for turning Ryan Gravel’s  Vision 53 report into four  different kinds of presentations, each targeted at a different audience.

Jack O’Hara: I am in charge of making a standard long (about 25 minutes) presentation of Vision 53. I have chosen to do a PowerPoint slideshow and have added images and text from a pdf of the report using the image editor GIMP along with images from creative commons. As per client request the main audience of this presentation will be possible funders for the project, and I have tailored the information in my presentation accordingly. Presently, I am nearly complete with a first working draft. I am also the main point of contact between our team and our client ChattahocheeNOW, specifically Jodi Mansbach. For this role I have been responsible for writing emails to Jodi and have met with her in person at her office.

Treasure Jones: Treasure is tasked with turning Vision 53 into a short “elevator” pitch type presentation of about five or less minutes. She is working on two versions of this presentation that our client can choose from: a PowerPoint and a Prezi presentation. The main audience for her presentation will be, like the longer presentation,  possible funders for Vision 53.

Julia Mezzacapo: Julia is in charge of making a Pecha Kucha style creative presentation out of Vision 53. As per Pecha Kucha rules, her presentation will have 20 slides, each shown for 20 seconds that move automatically as they are spoken over. So far we have collaborated to learn how to use the image cropping feature of GIMP so she can include pictures from Vision 53 in the presentation. The main audience of her presentation will be the general public and more specifically recreational enthusiasts.

Ana Settles: Ana is charged with making a slideshow of Vision 53 that could be viewed asynchronously on ChattahoocheeNOW’s main website. After consulting with the client, part or all of her presentation will be in a video format. The main audience of her presentation will be, like the Pecha Kucha, the general public and more specifically recreational enthusiasts.
