Media 101 - tips and tricks
Abstract Overview
Join media advisors Patrick Daley (RDAA), Ineke Kuiper (RDAA) and Petrina Smith (ACRRM) for a compelling workshop about how the media works, how to prepare for a media interview (including on Zoom), and tips and tricks for undertaking an interview effectively! An initial overview will be followed by breakout sessions where you can try your hand at a mock interview in a supportive environment…or simply watch and learn.
Biography
Patrick is RDAA's longest serving team member, and has a busy role including media liaison, member communications, government engagement, and sponsor liaison. Outside the office, he runs after his two basketball-playing teenage sons (both of whom are now taller than him, making him feel very old) and coaches teams in the Canberra basketball competition. Patrick grew up in the NSW alpine town of Berridale and has been a keen skier for more than 40 years. He also loves playing guitar, fiddle and a few other instruments (including banjo - though this needs practice!) Patrick's mum does great work for RDAA sending us paper clippings when we get an article in the local Snowy Mountains newspaper, The Monaro Post.
