Greetings Fine Media Makers,


Join DC Media Makers' next meetup (at National Public Radio!)
Wed, August 26, 6:30PM-8:00PM

To RSVP:
Just sign up via this Socializr's link: www.socializr.com/event/804982469


NPR and our AUGUST meetup:
Big thanks to guru media maker at National Public Radio - Andy Carvin - for hosting us.


DC Media Makers and you:
When it comes to making media, DC Media Makers' preferred MO is "have fun, learn, create, share, repeat."

So are you passionately interested in all things digital education i.e. online video, podcasts, mobile blogging, screencasting, and more?


If so - don't walk but RUN to join in.

No matter what your level of experience with digital tech or media, there's a place for you here. Share a favorite online video clip from your personal or professional portfolio or a new editing software or other production tips or a new project idea.

Bottom line:
DC Media Makers is the 'big tent' for peer learning and promoting digital literacy in DC.

Mashup Meeting Time!


For the next DCMM meetup, it's all you, you, you. It's been a while since we just met for pure tech-out-creative-geekness. So for August, just bring you and your laptops, Flip cams, podcasting tech, and all favorite gadget gear to mash it up; expect a peer-to-peer, all out fun 'tech out' where you can work on your current digital projects along side other members. Or just observe what others are working on, enjoy, and learn. Get feedback, get in the mood for fun, and get crazy-digi-tech!


Remember, if you're interested in presenting at future meetups:

To present at DC Media Makers - (casual style, we're not anal) - please comment below or contact Jill Foster directly to share your professional or personal digital tech project (and the tools you're using too!) with the group.


Contact Jill Foster: www.twitter.com/jillfoster.


And remember our feedback community:

--Do you want feedback on any particular media project or concept on your mind? We're glad to listen and offer suggestions in that frank yet friendly way.

Will there be snacks?
...likely!
