Video Project: Reese Miller, Kat Sampson, Adam Homeyer, "Kombucha"
Kombucha has been on the market for over a decade but why is it just now gaining popularity and notoriety? Well to start off, the drink used to be considered alcoholic and was labeled as thus. Buddha’s Brew, the Austin-based kombucha company, was one of the first brewers to lower the alcoholic content to virtually zero and up the probiotic count to 19 billion. Because of these vital changes, their drinks have gained popularity and have recently expanded to local HEBs.

In this video story, J302F students Erin Altieri, Kate Beispel, and Reanna Zuniga discover what makes Cream Whiskers a place that students want to go to, whether it be the atmosphere, the food, the people, or a combination of all factors.

The 4th Annual Wagathon Walkathon
The 4th Annual Wagathon Walkathon
The 4th Annual Wagathon Walkathon was held on March 30, 2014 at the Hill Country Galleria in Austin, Texas. The walkathon was put on to support and raise awareness for Austin Pets Alive!, which is a non-profit, no kill humane society organization. As well as promoting some more specific animal shelters, like The Basset Rescue Group. The walkathon’s main supporter was Austin Subaru, Continental Auto Group, and was also sponsored by local businesses like Jamba Juice. This particular event is one of Austin Pets Alive!’s best fundraising and awareness events. Volunteers will bring some of the animal shelter dogs out, put an “adopt me!” vest on, and try to find some of their furry friends new homes.Video Project
UT's University Theatre Guild
By Tori Townsend and Alessandra Rey
UT's University Theatre Guild has become a creative outlet for students that would like to act as a hobby, not a career. This theatre organization is also completely student-run. We talked to UTG President Kyle Winkelmann and UTG member Ryan Hooker about their personal experiences within the group. Winkelmann is also directing the upcoming comedy, The Brothers Grimm Spectaculaton. In our interview, he discussed how a student-run production has positively impacted the cast.

Fundraising campaign celebrates mascots birthday
Engineering students celebrate with their Patron Saint every year for his birthday -- which falls on April Fools' Day. As a tradition of what started out as a prank and soon became a million dollar fundraising campaign, the Cockrell School of Engineering hands out free cake to all students who stop by. This year, students were given a chance to meet and speak with Alec, their saint while learning more about giving back to their school. The birthday bash was put on by the Friends of Alec a fundraising organization that focuses on raising funds for the school to continue funding engineering education.

By: Alicia Colon-Jimenez, Eva Frederick, and Jeanette Perez
Being a new student at the University of Texas at Austin can
be a scary experience. That’s why we decided to create a short, informative
video that will provide freshmen and transfer students with some helpful tips
for adjusting to this new environment. We held interviews with two students and
a student ambassador, hoping to help new students feel more at home at UT.
Zilker Woodland Faerie Trail and Garden
The video story of the Faerie Garden of Zilker Park located in Austin, TX, describes The second annual Woodland Faerie Trail, which features faerie homes and gardens created by Austin area gardeners, architects, and others. Anyone can enter a Faerie home for this annual attraction. Besides the magnificent miniature whimsical architecture, the Faerie garden includes many kid-friendly events such as scheduled tea parties and dress up days. Besides the garden's enticement to children, many adults come to view the garden as well, and take a step beck into their youth to enjoy a botanical Disneyland. Through interviews of visitors and staff, as well as the incorporation of text slides throughout the assignment, viewers' interpretation of the story's objective is enhanced.

Texas 4000: Riding for a Cause by Rebeca Baptista and Kirsten Kumar
Team: Kirsten Kumar and Rebeca Baptista
Texas 4000 is a bicycle tour that stretches from Austin,
Texas to Anchorage, Alaska over each summer. The goal of the trek is to
increase cancer awareness and raise funds for research. Each participant has a
goal of how much money to raise and must meet it by a determined deadline. The
riders train extensively to prepare their bodies and their minds for the 4,500-mile
long atlas ride. We interviewed three participants. One, Brooke Willard, rode
in the summer of 2012 and offered us an experienced perspective on the ride.
The remaining two, Abz Zeitler and Tatiana Jessen, shared a hopeful outlook on their
future journey.
