Topic Proposals

Art Blog

On this blog I would post stories about local artists in NYC. Reoccurring features would be a major part of my posts. Many of them would include interviews and profiles about up and coming artists. I could possibly do an artist of the week segment in which I would post a different artist every week and feature artists that have very different techniques or do different styles of art. There are a lot of up and coming or amateur artists in the city so I would have a lot of potential subjects. I could also include multimedia posts featuring photos of different art pieces or videos of how they were done.

Canarsie News Blog

I would focus this blog on news in Canarsie, a large residential neighborhood in Brooklyn. This would be different than other news blogs in NYC because it is focused on a specific neighborhood and covers local news. This blog would feature reported news stories about events that have occurred in the neighborhood. I could also include a news feature about the history of the neighborhood or places to go there.
