My work placement companies!

My Work placement companies

Cork Opera house
I chose this company because I have an interest in all stages of film production. Cork Opera house is a theatre where many plays are performed. I have an interest in film and animation. Plays and movies are very similar. You have to think of the actors position and the audience. I could help with backstage tasks. Furthermore as a multimedia student I have more to offer. For their website I can create a video giving the public a tour and tell history of the Opera house. Furthermore one idea to help boost ticket sales and social media views would be to create weekly videos that show clips of what was on during the week. In the videos I can show the backstage and leading up to the performance and also interviews with the performancers. The videos then be uploaded onto their website or onto their youtube channel.
Everyman
I chose this company because a theatre production is similar to a film production. The Everyman is a theatre in Cork city where actors and musicians perform. On their website they have a lot of events coming up but the only reason I know this is because I went onto their website. I haven’t seen an advert on the television or on social media. What I would offer them are my multimedia skills. The product would be a video advertising what’s on in the Everyman. On their website they have a 360* camera that allows you to look around the stalls and onstage. What if you used the 360* camera to create a video that gives you a tour of the actors/musicians journey from backstage to onstage? Furthermore one idea to help boost ticket sales and social media views would be to create weekly videos that show clips of what was on during the week. In the videos I can show the backstage and leading up to the performance and also interviews with the performancers. I can upload the videos then onto their youtube channel or the website.
Evening Echo
The Evening echo is an Irish newspaper that reports local events in Cork. It has a website, Facebook page with over 70k likes and a twitter account with over 43k followers. What I could do for this company is create weekly videos of what happened in the newspaper during the week. Most young people nowadays look at social media for their news. This will capture younger generations attention and it will increase the views on the Evening Echos social media pages. Furthermore I can help them with their social media pages.

Irish Tatler
Irish Tatler is an Irish magazine that focuses on fashion, work, beauty, lifestyle, events and more. It has a facebook page with over 20k likes, an active Twitter acount with over 30k followers and a website. The way people look at media is constantly changing. Long ago it was just magazines and newspapers. Now you have multiple social media platforms. As a result magazine companies need to adapt to the constant change. Most people are on the go when they are on social media and reading about current events and celebrity news. They don’t have time to read long paragraghs. What I can offer this company is my multimedia skills. I want to create weekly videos that show what the magazine did during the week. For example if there was a fashion show on and the magazine wrote about it/photographed it, I could take the content from the magazine and use it in the video.
Stellar
Stellar is an Irish magazine that focuses on fashion, beauty, celebrities, career, fitness and more. It has a facebook page with over 40k likes, a twitter account with over 26k followers and a website. What I can offer this company is my multimedia skills. I want to create weekly videos that show what the magazine did during the week. For example if there was a fashion show, interview with a celebrity or event, I could take the content from the magazine and use it in the video. Then I would upload the video onto their social media pages and website. I can also assist them with their social media pages and help boost followers.
