Lilly Thigpen's CP Personal Presentation Planning
Plan your projects and define important tasks and actions
1. Audience- Fullscreen Media
1.1. Business Executives
1.1.1. Also possibly the owner/CEO of a company under Full Screen that I may be directly applying to.
1.2. Promote's the creator's wellbeing
1.2.1. good benefits
1.2.2. casual work environments
1.2.3. Mission statement: FULLSCREEN IS A MEDIA COMPANY BUILT WITH THE CREATOR AT THE CORE.
1.3. They manage a lot of creators (70,000+), in other words originality is key
1.3.1. Looking for "true disruptors" and "big fish"
1.4. My skills, problem solving and originality (personality) is important to them.
1.5. I want to leave them thinking about my passion and unwillingness to surrender.
2. True Message
2.1. Basic scale: I am doing this presentation to get the job.
2.2. Bigger scale: I am doing this presentation to showcase that I am an empowered woman on a path to inspire others and change the media business for the better.
2.2.1. I am showing that women have what it takes to be great modern creators and content producers.
2.2.2. I am doing this to prove that I am extremely passionate about helping to create new-age media and create trends.
2.3. I hope the audience walks away thinking about the importance of women in the industry and what we are capable of when given the chance.
3. Tools
3.1. Tools needed: Macbook, Powerpoint, Slideshow clicker (if done live), Camera and video editing software (if not done live), Slide:ology textbook, Photo albums, Microsoft paint, Mindmeister.com
3.1.1. I will also be using Microsoft Paint to draw visual elements to further my story and points.
3.1.2. I will use the slide:ology textbook to help me create better slides that are visually appealing and not crammed with information. I also plan to use a panorama presentation layout.
3.1.3. For this presentation, I am opting to try and use actual photos of myself versus clip art and other visuals.
3.1.4. Using mindmeister.com during this brainstorming, layout process is extremely helpful. I chose this site over others due to the ability to easily color code things.
4. Obstacles
4.1. I hope there aren't any hurdles in from my audience but I am aware that there could be.
4.1.1. I have to keep in mind that I will be talking to men about inspiring women in the industry.
4.1.1.1. Fullscreen Media does, however, strongly believe in women creators, however I still need to make sure that I am not being "too pushy" on the subject by effectively communicating that it is something that I directly feel a calling to do.
4.1.1.2. I also need to not come off as degrading or aggressive towards men in the industry. (Avoid the "it's all your fault" feeling)
4.1.2. My age and lack of job experience may also create some difficulty.
4.1.2.1. I will focus on showcasing what I have done that was exceptional, like side projects and community involvement
4.1.3. There may also be some presentation difficulties.
4.1.3.1. I am not the best public speaker. However, I do believe that if I rehearse this properly everything should go okay.
4.1.3.2. I must also be prepared to still give a presentation even if technology fails me. Therefore, memorization or even note cards with bare slide titles are huge in ensuring success, no matter what.
