Portfolio 3 for EL200
While the sunshine is turning stronger and the temperature is becoming higher, summer is arriving to Seton Hill University (SHU). Issue 10 was published during April, and Aero Windwalker did his contribution in this issue.
Windwalker has been busy to help Jeremy Barrick, the Editor of Setonian Online to publish photos as well as retouch style sheet for the Setonian Online Edition. He photo edited the following article for Setonian Online:
Men's tennis swings back into action
Men's lacrosse competes and strives for the best
Slumdog deserves both millions and awards
First student accepted into LECOM looks forward to liberal arts core
The jobs Windwalker has done were highly recommended by Barrick, "Aero has learned, through numerous emails, to upload color pictures to the Setonian Online. I think that Aero is a really good photographer, and he should be able to stay with this position throughout the next few years."
In this semester's Setonian, Dennis Jerz, the Advisor of Setonian and EL200, has introduced a new concept about Journalism today. Many journalistic businesses have confronted the economic crisis. Because many companies are firing people, new journalism graduate students have to compete with who are holding a PhD or Master degree or who have 10 years journalistic experience. Even the beginning jobs are getting harder to find every day. Ross Liemer, previous Chief Editor of The Daily Princetonian, comments, "Many of my friends could not find a job even if they have a BA degree from school like Columbia. One of my friends, for example, graduated from Columbia. Now she works for The New York Times. She has been there for three months, but the only thing she did is to review the online article - make sure they look OK on different screen. I have been looking for a job for a while too, but it seems that the only option I have is to go to China and work in Beijing."
Since the Internet News websites "attacked" traditional media, many newspapers or magazines lost their income from advertising used cars or housing information. When people get news or post commercial on Internet by a much lower price, the traditional media is losing their priority in people's life. Dr. Jerz tore out a copy of Setionian print in the Media Lab (EL200) class, and help many wise members in the class started focusing on the digital print out more than ever before. Windwalker states, "Jeremy, Aja and the two Jessis in EL200 are those people who have good anticipations to our Setonian Online. They actually spent time on gathering idea and making affords to make a change. It's definitely going to have magnificent achievements when they walking out SHU in the future."
Windwalker also have great enthusiasm towards Setonian Online. Aja Hannah, a freshman in EL200, comments," Aero seems very interested in the online work. He has made a lot of subtle improvements to the Setonian Online and he has a very keen eye for photography." On the other hand, Chelsea Oliver, the copy editor of Setonian, judges, "Personally, I do not know who has done what with the Online Setonian but overall I think that the addition of color and more pictures has been an improvement. But just as a side-note, the pictures are too large and take away from the actual stories without telling a story by themselves." Besides online photo editing, Windwalker also dedicates in print out photo editing. He spent hours to select and resize photos and put them into the lay-out on March 31 for the last issue. When speak up to the contribution to the traditional print out of Setonian, Oliver says, "Aero was able to come to the office a lot more this semester than last which was nice; however, his time could have been better put to use if he was able to be down there while someone was able to be with him to train him on Quark and Gimp properly."
