Conveying the Message: Visual Diplomacy Seminar (PY362)

Jumping ahead to September 10-14, 2012.  It was my wonderful privilege to be the course coordinator for Visual Diplomacy AND to attend the training as a participant.  Our week long project was to create a 1 minute video about our assigned topic.  I have never created anything with the use of iMovie, so like most of my colleagues I found the learning curve pretty steep.  ( I watched my daughter create a short video on my computer in August)

When they announced our time was up I reluctantly obeyed knowing my bibliography had not been added.

This coming week I will hope to add that.  for now here are the credits

The instructors: Brigitte Pressler and Georg Steinboeck are incredibly talented and skilled professionals.  I am indeed very blessed to have been taught by them.

This year we went to one.
And found some fun things to buy.
The wooden top is made from Olive wood.

The orange oil with the date sauce
