Week 4

It was really busy last two week, not only for the gallery but also the draft of research paper submitted last Friday. For the fourth week, is a little bit tough in terms of its hard-find information. As a member in the gallery, I was asked to do another important research about the Media. It was a crucial link between the gallery and the market. Therefore, a series of information has to be collected, such as different types of media, media content, contact, advertisements, rate, discount. I did it very carefully, as I was told the gallery has to make a budget right according to my research. To be honest, it was a tough task that some media information like advertisement rate and discount did not reveal in the Internet unless people intend to advertise. And some of websites need to register to be its member, filling out a sheet of personal information, and then they will send you emails about the advertisement thing. This also increases my difficulty. But I was eased when my leader told me it was alright missing some messages. I totally immersed myself on this research. Though finally, I did lose some information of the media advertising, I gained a sense of success. I realized that it was uneasy to advertise, different sizes have different rates, and different covers have different effect. It seems that every element could make a difference. Through this work, not only have I known various kinds of media types, but also realize how the exhibitions are hold in the gallery. I am glad that I used to be a member in this gallery group, I know the power of collaboration as well as the pleasure of work and I know how to deal with the emergency.
