Meet Kari!
Everyone give a warm welcome to our new Video Content Writer, Kari!
As part of the film team, she will be running interviews, creating storylines, and producing plenty of writing (including this Plog, hello everyone!)
On Tuesday, the team had their first Team Lunch with Kari, along with several meetings throughout the week. Overall, a great first week in our books!
Behind The Scenes: Bryce Wuori
An impactful story needs an impactful setup.
We welcomed Bryce Wuori, CEO of Pavewise, into our studio to talk about mental health in the construction industry. During his time in our studio, Bryce shed light on the stigmas surrounding mental health and emotions within the industry, shared his personal journey through the highs and lows he has experienced, and offered solutions for others who might find themselves in a similar situation. We look forward to sharing his story with the community soon.
Behind The Scenes: YWCA Women of the Year
The film team stayed local this week, filming for the YWCA Women of the Year event! We are highlighting the life and work of YWCA 2024 Board President Rayonna Hystead. As someone who was served by The YWCA as a child, Rayonna gave a deeper look into the impact this program can have within the community. She expressed the fulfillment she gets from being able to give back to the community that once helped her. Telling stories of people who contribute to the Fargo community is always fun and fulfilling for the team!
More Pride Story Podcasts to come!
This week, Max and the Tellwell team filmed and recorded more episodes of our podcast, Pride Stories. We started Pride Stories three years ago and have loved empowering folks to share their stories. As members and allies of the LGBTQ+ community ourselves, we know how impactful and important it is to highlight Queer voices. Keep an eye out for episodes to come!
That wraps up this week! Keep an eye out for our next plog, coming March 29th!
