Wait, you went to Full Sail? They have a really strong relationship with WWE. Did you ever meet any wrestlers or do production stuff with them?

I did go to full sail! i wasn't aware of any wwe relationship. never liked wrestling, so if there was anything going on while i was attending, i was unaware of it. at any rate, i was in computer animation, so it's unlikely that my path would intersect with that.

also, please no one go to full sail. it's a huge for profit scam and most of their degree program structure is designed to prime you towards being an easily exploitable worker and normalize crunchtime.

when i went there, they had no mental health support for students, and i ended up being constantly suicidal and burnt out as a result. don't let them sucker you into applying like they did me. I flunked out because of bad grades after trying to push myself through, and they later claimed i owed them over $11,000 for classes i never got to take because they flunked me out. fuck them, and fuck all for-profit universities.

2017 Full Sail Hall of Fame ceremony — VoicePlay live performance & peeks behind the scenes

After they filmed several music videos at the REBL HQ studio on the Full Sail campus over the previous year, VoicePlay were invited to open the university's annual alumni Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

Eli documented parts of the day in real time, livestreaming on VoicePlay's Facebook page. This first one is the guys and some of their spouses being escorted to their seats in preparation for singing the national anthem.

.

The whole ceremony is almost three hours long, but our guys got their job done in the first few minutes.

Details:

title: U.S. national anthem (Full Sail University's 8th Annual Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony)

original song: The Star-Spangled Banner

written by: lyrics from the poem "Defence of Fort M'Henry" by Francis Scott Key; sung to the tune of "The Anacreontic Song" by John Stafford Smith

arranged by: VoicePlay

performance date: 16 February 2017

My favorite bits:

Eli starting off solo, then everyone gradually layering in

passing the lead around

the unusual harmonies on ♫ "perilous fight" ♫

Layne, Eli, and Erik's lovely unison for ♫ "were so galantly streaming" ♫

putting a little decoration on ♫ "bursting in ai-ai-aaair" ♫

upward modulation leading into another cool chord progression

Earl's big old belt on ♫ "braaave" ♫ followed by the other guys traveling up to resolve with him

Trivia:

VoicePlay had done a number of collaborations involving Full Sail over the previous year, primarily through their REBL HQ video production studio, including their 1-Minute Musicals series, "My Shot" from Hamilton, and a trio of audio production tips.

J.None (their other rotating baritone at the time) had performed "America the Beautiful" for the opening of the 2015 Hall of Fame event. He was a recent graduate, and had just competed on American Idol.

.

The robot presentation Eli mentioned in the first FB livestream happened later in the evening, so he provided a peek into the designer's intro and the performance itself, complete with immersive light effects, dancers, and wire work.

[NOTE: The second video includes some flashing light effects, particularly starting at ~6:00]

.

The guys were excited to meet legendary recording engineer Bruce Swedien, whose work with Quincy Jones and Michael Jackson earned him multiple Grammy awards, and who had been presented with the school's Industry Icon Award during the previous year's Hall of Fame week.

What I learned this month in Product and Artist Management:

 For this course called Product and Artist Management, I wanted to say that the topics that was taught to me went past what I thought I was to learn for product and Artist management. I Feel the artist management portion was very well explained with many scenarios that really helped me through how to manage my future artist. I learned for my products, I would need to plan in detail on where and when my products will be released for each artist that I work with and is at the level where they have products, they are promoting to build up their brands. 

This course also taught me to keep my brand authentic and real for my audience to relate with so I can build a more organic brand for my artist to want to be a part of and the fans that can help support it as well. By connecting technology resources to my brand and fans I can help them be connected to me in many ways online and offline.

Each week I was put through scenario after scenario to help me be more comfortable with similar scenarios for my future artists and clients. It taught me that not everyone situation is the same and you will need to understand each artist a certain way and know how to work with them in a certain leadership trait way, so they can be successful in what the artist or manager is asking to be done for the artist and or brand. 

I will apply all the skills I learned to my professional life by making sure I follow the layouts given to me when building new product plans for artist and myself as a brand that needs their products promoted and sold. The most useful thing from this whole course is the Pricing & sales from week four. I think that last week really help me understand product and artist Management more clearly so that I can be more successful in my career on my Mastery journey.

Hey everyone! Recently I began enrolling to the school of my dreams, and their goal is to have me on campus by September! However that means we have to move states again and that’s…expensive and scary. So I made this GoFundMe to help! Any donations will help us secure a home in the city of my university! I’ll add the link, and thank you all for your support! 🩷

The Adventure Begins

As the world settled into a hushed lullaby of night, Molly the Unicorn, plush and magical, stirred from her sleep. Tonight was no ordinary night; tonight, Molly craved adventure. Silently, she tiptoed through the quiet house. Her journey led her to a room adorned with childhood wonder—Lily's room. Molly approached the bed where Lily lay nestled. Leaning in, Molly whispered a secret lullaby into Lily's ear, a call to join her on an adventure woven with the threads of imagination. With a flutter of moonlit sparkle, Lily's eyes opened. The duo, bound by friendship embarked on a midnight quest. Through the hushed house and under the watchful moon, Molly and Lily ventured into the unknown.

At the outset of the New Media Journalism Final Project course, my initial expectation was to finalize our Capstone Project, and indeed, that's what transpired. Over the course of four weeks, we delved into each section of our final thesis paper, centered around my Capstone Project focusing on five ways parents and educators can support middle and high school students through mental health challenges.

During the first week, we crafted an introduction to our thesis and conducted a literature review. Feedback from both peers and instructors prompted revisions in the second week, primarily urging me to enhance the detail in my introduction and ensure punctuation accuracy. Surprisingly, amidst this process, I realized that working on this final thesis paper was significantly improving my writing skills.

Week three tasked us with developing the discussion and conclusion sections of our paper, along with acknowledgments. I encountered difficulties in summarizing my project succinctly, as articulating its significance proved challenging. Additionally, I struggled with organizing the chronological process of assembling my project and crafting a strong conclusion, as I've historically found concluding narratives to be a writing weakness.

The final week was dedicated to revising and compiling the entire thesis paper. In reflection, the four-week journey not only culminated in the completion of my Capstone Project but also notably enhanced my writing abilities. Overall, this experience served as a fitting conclusion to my master's degree in the New Media Journalism Program at Full Sail University, earning a perfect rating in my estimation.

Final Mastery Journal Entry for Full Sail University NMJMA Program

Looking back on my journey through the NMJMA program at Full Sail University, I still have the same excitement as I did initially. My initial goal was to pass down what I learned to my students. I successfully accomplished that goal. I have two students at the school where I work who have successfully produced their own podcast episodes.

I was looking forward to two classes in particular: Writing for Interactive Media and New Media and Communications. I took a lot away from those courses and scored an A in both of them. They really did kick off the specialty classes as I had expected, thus exceeding my expectations.

Though the journey was challenging, all courses taught me something new to take into my work as an education journalist. I am currently in my last month and wrapping up the final thesis paper. I am finishing as strongly as I started, and I am a better writer than ever.

While I have not received an internship yet, I have applied for s few and hopefully can complete one over the summer.

The most challenging course over the last 12 months was the Digital News Production course. I have really struggled with the video portions of assignments, but I pushed forward and successfully completed them.

All of my instructors have been present, inspirational, and supportive of my goals and the standards I have set for completing coursework.

I am walking away with a well-constructed website, capstone project, and thesis paper that shows I have went from writer to journalism.

I look forward to graduating in the next week and continuing to produce newsworthy, credible, and engaging content for my audience. My education and experiences at Full Sail University will last me a lifetime. This program lived up to every expectation I had and more!

Mastery Journal post for RIS Development

Hi everyone. My name is Malori Frey. I’m currently enrolled at Full Sail University for my Master of Arts - New Media Journalism. This month I participated in a course called Research and Investigation Skills Development. At the beginning of my degree program, I had to make predictions of what I thought each class was going to teach me. 

My prediction: 

This course is designed to teach me the proper techniques in researching within the mass medias and identifying creditable sources. 

This prediction was spot on. I did learn how to research and find multiple of creditable sources to use for my website, Mindful Life Journey.

            Mindful Life Journey is focused on Mental Health and Personal Growth.  In this course, I really wanted to focus on the main factors that affect the mentality of individuals, such as: education, employment/ money, and general health. I was able to create two articles for this site. 

Knowing Your HIPPA Rights

Putting a Stop to Stigma Associated with Mental Health (will add the link after posting it)

My three biggest goals for this class were: 

Advance my researching skills. 

Work on my objective writing skills.

Find topics that correspond with the overall beat of my website. 

Here are some of the sources I have found through research for this class:

Supporting Strong Mental Health: Interviews with Mental Health Experts During COVID-19 Pandemic

In this article by Health Partners

State of Mental Health in America

National Library of Medicine

American Psychiatric Association

National Alliance on Mental Illness

This course has, also, prepared me for objective writing assignments in future media jobs by showing me new techniques to use when researching. Some of the links that were shown to me in class are: 

Why Interview?

Researching Data

Infographics

I will apply these things in my day-to-day work as a journalist and blogger. 

Thank you for reading!
