The idea of the Photoshoot was to provide the AguaClara team with professional headshots, not only for the AguaClara Wiki page, but also for personal professional use. The PR team set aside two hours (2:30 - 4:30 PM) for four days (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday) to hold a photoshoot to take professional photos of the team members. The team members were able to sign up for a certain time with the Excel spreadsheet that was sent out a week beforehand. This year, a PR member, Andrew Kang, lent out his camera for the photoshoot. If no one has a camera available, both Uris and Olin Library allow people to rent out cameras. The team members were required to wear the AguaClara polo shirts for the professional head shot, but were allowed to wear professional attire for their own personal professional use. Before taking the head shot, each team members were required to sign a release form permitting AguaClara to have use of the photos. After 4:30 PM, the photographer would put away all polo shirts and release forms back into the box, then proceed to bring it downstairs to the cabinet in the laboratory.
Project: Subteam Spotlights
Basic Details
The subteam spotlights provide a critical role in updating members of the AguaClara team and the general public about AguaClara's projects. It provides a simple and concise report of each team's project, goal, and progress. By reviewing each team and each part of the water filtration process, the subteam spotlights give people a general understanding of AguaClara and water sanitation as a whole. Essentially the weekly spotlights are a way to bridge the information gap between the general public and members of AguaClara.
