QuarkNet Video News Project by Hilary Blanchard
Without the need for first-time introductions and tours this week, our group of six gets right down to the QuarkNet video project. We make arrangements for interviewing physicists, and separate into three sub-groups.
With most of us attending different schools in different areas, we were concerned about organizing and planning, and about getting along. But we enjoy each other's company. Our group seems to be getting tighter, a good sign that our work will also be compatible. And our work is intensifying, despite our occasional breaks for socializing, or perhaps because of them. On a smaller scale, we're learning how large physics collaborations, from many institutions and countries, work together to build a team.
After our social breaks, we always turn our attention back to particles, scripts and visuals. Things begin to fall into place, and our final product becomes clearer by the minute.
Although today is only our second session, it also marks the halfway point of our project. I begin to feel a bit of a time crunch, realizing how much we still have to accomplish. We press on, and support each other in our work. It's comforting to know that all of our Fermilab contacts are ready and waiting to help us, and we continue to plan and organize.
Back at home, we stay in communication, and each day we continue working toward our goals. Our web-cast is taking form. Our group is working closely and effectively, and all of our contacts are helpful. I'm eager to see the final product.
