Collaborations

During the summer of 2019, the Center for Collaborative Media worked with the City of Fort Wayne, Riverfront Fort Wayne, and a group of students ahead of the grand opening of Promenade Park. Students learned what it takes to create marketing content for a client under the supervision of our center staff. Their work was highlighted during the grand-opening celebrations of this major Riverfront Development milestone.

Derek Devine, CEO and founder of PUNCH Films, worked with the Center for Collaborative Media in the spring of 2019. In addition to facilitating a partnership with Cinema Center, Devine worked with students on their documentary projects throughout the semester. Devine continues to be a supporter and collaborator of our center.

As a successful outlet for communication scholarship, the International Journal of Communication is an online journal funded in part by the Annenberg Foundation that focuses on written scholarship. In conjunction with the 30th anniversary of Critical Rhetoric, this issue blends the written word with audio/visual content designed for multiple platforms. It is the first of its kind for the journal and shows that both the ideas and the format of scholarship can push boundaries.
