Sorry about the late notice but there is a meeting this Friday (tomorrow) at 11 am in LA 100. I was hoping that we could discuss the Film Festival, Photo night and internships. Again, I am sorry about the late notice but I hope that everyone can make it.

uo-asda: Flux multimedia looking for Flash work

Hi, everyone. Flux, the journalism school's annual student magazine,
is looking for some designers who are proficient with Flash to work on
several interactive media packages for the online section of this
years issue. Nothing terribly complex; just things like an
interactive photo gallery and an informational diagram. Last year's
issue can be seen here: http://flux.uoregon.edu/2007/

This year we are looking to expand the online edition with more
creative features through both video and Flash-based content. If you
want more information about this year's issue, have a look at the
media kit here: http://flux.uoregon.edu/2008/Flux%20Media%20Kit.pdf

If you're interested, let me know and I'll get you more information.

Thanks,
Simon Boas
