About this event
The Action Team Media Crew is a volunteer multi-media capture cohort that works collaboratively with the Digital Communications Manager and Content Strategist to document and amplify the work of the ACLU of Massachusetts out in the field.
Using a versatile, compact, mobile media toolkit, volunteer media crew members will have a chance to help shape digital narratives that drive forward the mission and work of the ACLU of Massachusetts.
Acting as on-the-ground reporters, narrators and visual storytellers, these volunteers will support the advocacy team’s efforts to reach as many people as possible, with multimedia learning experiences that engage, inspire and educate audiences online and off.
Workshops are designed to include both first-time attendees and those who have attended previous workshops. Those who have attended previous workshops will have an opportunity to deepen their skills. Throughout the year, we will call on the Media Crew to join us at events in-the-field.
Workshops will take place on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at the ACLU office in Boston. Below are the upcoming workshops:
Wednesday, March 12 | Wednesday, April 9 | Wednesday, May 14
