Blog Pitch #1— underground/local art scene coverage
The basic idea for this blog is to document and report on local and underground art events throughout various venues in New York City. These events generally tend to encompass art, music, and apparel. Each event is essentially its own brand. I plan to interview certain friends and individuals who are responsible for developing these events, curating the art, securing the venues, and handling the social media. I also plan to interview the artists, in the hopes of conveying their messages, as well as the opinions of the crowd. This blog would also contain multimedia content.
Blog Pitch #2— Mental health in Baruch
This blog would focus on mental health awareness and the psychological problems that are prevalent among college students, in particular, Baruch students. Some concerning issues I would like to cover include the abuse of prescription pills such as adderall, anxiety and stress problems and how to alleviate them, and social smoking. I would interview students, as well as the psychology department for professional opinions.
