| 1 | '''Membership Meeting/People Link Discussion''' |
| 2 | |
| 3 | '''Outreach''' |
| 4 | mv: idea of creating a members email list, for us to ask members to join to create a community place to announce events, discuss topics in the community, discuss mayfirst policies |
| 5 | HG: have a large a community how do we make sure it is moderators, concern of capacity |
| 6 | mv: list about events, and about mayfirst things, but if we get to a point that to many posts are happening then I think that is a good thing as it is a sign of member engaging |
| 7 | A: Can it connect with JG idea of identifying sectors and areas of interest, to bring kind of issue to the discussion |
| 8 | HG: JG idea was to segment the membership, to target the interaction. Idea of part of the outreach, to ID specific targeted outreach. A contact list, to have a discussion, each LC member would need to have a work sheet for those discussions, so we can enter this stuff into the DB. We could target the outreach. Outreach and data collection at the same. |
| 9 | mv: likes the idea but concerned with it just being a drive the membership meeting |
| 10 | HG: since we are already going to be doing outreach and good to get some data, but discussion and getting to know is the priority, now that we have a database to update. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | '''Web Redesign |
| 13 | ''' |
| 14 | HG: List of things we should have on the webpage |
| 15 | keep a list of ideas |
| 16 | HG: will send a list to the membership team for the ticket that discusses this |
| 17 | |
| 18 | '''People Links Podcast |
| 19 | ''' |
| 20 | |
| 21 | mv: started with explaining some of the experience of producing the cyberunions podcast, specifically about the structure. He suggests a flexible structure with some consistency of 2 segments, 1 on mayfirst include resources, or something that might be impacting and the 2nd segment to focus on a member and their movement work. The membermovement section would be an interview, which could take place before the actual podcast is recorded. |
| 22 | HG/A: How long should it be? |
| 23 | mv: mentioned the process that cyberunions went through in first focusing on short 15-20 minute piece but realized that shows can get rich in content and on average the show is about 45 minutes. He suggested to keep in flexible but 30-60 minutes is a good frame for one guest interview and maybe a 60-90 minutes for 2 guests, but depends on the content |
| 24 | A: suggest a 30 minute show, but good to be flexible |
| 25 | HG: 30 minute ideal, suggests resources and issues, tech development in the field or focusing on new tools. Invite folks to a training. |
| 26 | A: Answering many questions, common issues people are having. |
| 27 | HG: Take people through the process of things like reseting a password or things with service |
| 28 | HG: thematic discussions as an idea on future shows. |
| 29 | mv: who would be the hosts, would it be the same hosts or rotation, he never had experience with rotation of hosts but likes the idea. |
| 30 | HG: committee of hosts, rotate, a group and hosts and segments. |
| 31 | A: people who volunteer do not have to commit, easer to rotate less pressure and gives a different set of voices for the show |
| 32 | mv: suggest single language podcast one for english and one for spanish |
| 33 | HG: transcript in bilingual, but likes the single language podcast |
| 34 | HG: should we have a script or some sort to bring it back to floss |
| 35 | mv: to maybe introduce resources to the member movement section i.e. mailchimp many people use it, could discuss mailman or civicrm |
| 36 | HG: what do we need to make this happen? |
| 37 | |
| 38 | Technology: need a mixer on the call for recording all voices |
| 39 | Hardware: Mixer & Decent mic |
| 40 | Software: Audacity |
| 41 | |
| 42 | Music Needs: |
| 43 | Creative Commons |
| 44 | Need Intro Song |
| 45 | 2 Segues |
| 46 | Ending music |
| 47 | Hosts: Need to decide to host |
| 48 | |
| 49 | HG: Good to shift the order around might lead with member movement or swap with mayfirst section |
| 50 | First show Grainne & Abi to be part of both segments. |
| 51 | Good to get a list of like 10 groups that we could talk to about a specific topic. |
| 52 | |
| 53 | For the next week to decide on Music elements, then we can work toward practicing the show and getting comfortable to have fun with the show. |
