WHAT: A press conference to announce the Junior Axiom initiative.
WHERE: Camulus Press Room
WHEN: 11 February, 2037
STATUS: IC/OOC Log

The press room was jam-packed with press, Camulus staff and those students who decided to attend when the Executive Student Council and the Axiom Representative walked on-stage to make what the networks were hoping to be the most exciting news of the year.

They weren't disappointed, though the excitement held was both positive and negative. Many of the Executive Student Council spoke, as did the Axiom Representative, explaining the initiative and expressing their feelings on it. Nevertheless, the reviews were mixed. One journalist, a critic popular for being outspoken, was incredibly harsh, suggesting that this is simply a ploy for more media attention and not safe for either civilians or training Camulus students, a point at which Yuki suggested that the media let the students students themselves tell the media what they think instead of the media assuming.

Discussions continued for a while, but by the end of the conference, it was clear that in spite of some heated detractors, the media seemed fairly taken with the program.

Please comment if your character was there, if they said anything, etc.

SUBJECT: filming and camulus tv

Dear all,

There is an inescapable truth about Camulus. Wait. Two. The first is, of course, your mentors will torture you. The second being you will be filmed. I understand, as do the tournament organisers, that not everyone likes this. It is, however, part of being here. It's a wonderful way in which to represent your country and to also involve the general public. I, myself, am a fan of the television show and I find it interesting how dynamics develop. It's a useful tool for self-reflection, as well.

Nonetheless, I do realise for some people being filmed can be difficult. You have no control over the editing process and things you've said, or done, can be portrayed in a way you may not be comfortable with. Please keep in mind: they cannot edit something you have not done or said. If you wish to not be portrayed in a way less than savoury, do not give them fodder. Be careful of what you say. Think before you speak, or do. I have found the cameras have made me more cautious in my behaviour.

Over the top behaviour will not be rewarded, either. Outlandish behaviour can and may see you issued warnings from the mentors. Receive enough and you will be asked, politely, to leave the academy. This can be issued after watching your behaviour on television: so think.

With this all said: if you are having trouble with your media representation or feel it is unfair, please speak to me. As your VP External I handle our relationship with the media and I will speak to them on your behalf. Camulus should be a positive experience. While I cannot fix situations you have got yourself into, if editing is genuinely making you a villain, I can ask them to stop or lay-off. For those of you who do not want to be on film, I suggest you find the cameras and avoid them. Iskowitch has done an excellent job of this.

As a footnote, there is exciting news coming soon. Mark your datebooks for 2nd February.

Thank you.

Warmest Wishes,
Felix Meyrick
