Been working this short doc for about 4 or 5 months now and looking at the footage I have and the questions I asked in interviews. The content feels very shallow or non-existent. I followed the thesis i came up for it and its just panned out pretty aimless. I dont know how to get this project back on track outside of just restarting with a new thesis that maybe could drive it a bit better than my current one. Any suggestions?

Literally standing outside the wildlife hospital and they arnt picking up. I was told to drop off these baby pigeons I found while cleaning at my work place. Does anyone somehow have the numbers of someone who works here??? Ive been waiting outside for an hour and have to bum a phone charger off of a neighbor.

I (m25) moved to austin back in February and have been finding it hard to make new social connections. But these last two weeks I flew home to visit my parents and do some freelancing work and I found all of my dnd 5e, star wars, fallout, and iron kingdoms books.

I havent played a ttrpg in a while. But, I remember some of my fondest moments of high school where staying up late on a friday night after school and playing dnd. So I was wondering if anyone here knows if there are any games starting up or a free spot having recently opened.

This is my first time posting here because I finally figured out all of the film and event work I have been doing is basically PR. For a little background, I (M24) grew up with a mother who did PR extensively. She worked with subway, Chilly's, Krispy Kreme, and was the first PR director of Noodles&Co. I recently graduated college with a degree in Film and Television and found myself focusing and really enjoying the publicity and creative outreach campaigns I would be apart of for some of my classmates films.

During the summers between semesters I grew more into my media liason role for my hometown rodeo. It originally blossomed out of being a fixer and assistant for incoming filmmakers and media people coming to cover the rodeo. This was also a bit of a mother-son operation as well as my mom is the head of media relations and PR for the rodeo as well. It is also this year that my mom has begun to give me the reigns a bit more on managing the media surrounding the rodeo and helping to moderate coverage.

To accompany this, I tried my hand at trying to garner interest from outlets and organizations that we have never had at the rodeo before. I can confidently say I was able to work a deal to have the creative arm of Wikipedia (wikiportriats) to come and cover the entire run of the rodeo this year! But now im struggling to figure out a way of garnering another publications to come. Ive been trying to brain storm a way of getting Cowboys&Indians Magazine to come and cover a story surrounding the rodeos name change; one that surrounds them embracing being the Indian relay races championship in the US. There is a freelancer that comes to our rodeo every year that has photographed all of the tribes and nations that have come and participated, he has developed this very close relationship to them and I think I would be able to tie them into this via seeing if they would be interested in doing the photographer for the hypothetical story I would pitch the magazine.

Now for the question:

How would you go about respecting this freelancers art and connections to these tribes while getting them on board to sweaten he deal to attract this publication?

Also sorry for the rant I just feel really amped up from having the wikipedia deal get locked in and I just really want to get this next publication win so I can present this to possible agencies I would want to work for as successes.
