Hello from sunny London (really, it is).
 
We're hiring a new web producer in the London office to help deliver our campaigns online.
 
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work for an organisation that will bail you out of jail? Want to be part of a creative and innovative team that shows up at work and attempts to scare the pants off multinational companies? Want to enjoy the beautiful English weather and all London has to offer?  :) 
 
Well, this could just be the job for you, or someone you know.
 
The position includes developing online comms and campaigning strategies for projects; content production, writing and editing; and managing our social media presence - just have a look at what happened recently with Nestle if you want a taste of what it would be like: http://www.guardian.co.uk/sustainable-business/nestle-facebook

Study after study indicates that Americans have developed all kinds of new habits when it comes to consuming the news. But one key upward trend that tends to get overlooked in the fine print of these studies is how popular content-sharing has become.

This just in from Celina Agaton of Films that Move via the Social Tech Training network:

Films That Move presents a free video workshop with TV Reporter, Kris Reyes for non-profit and social enterprise employees and volunteers.

When: Saturday, March 6, 2010 10am to Noon 

Where: University of Toronto, Room TBD

What makes for a good story? How can you use the tools of today to help you create your own media? How do we make sure human interest stories don't get lost in the mix?

In this workshop, CityTV reporter Kris Reyes will try to help you answer those questions. She will also talk about the elements of a good story, how to shoot your own interviews, and share some ideas for creating and distributing your own media.

No agenda for the morning, but looks like an interesting opportunity for organizations that have an interest in exploring video and a Saturday morning to invest. Go register, it's free!
