Feature Story on Brick Builders, Eugene.

This text story was written to fulfill the course Gateway to Media, an instrumental class in earning a degree from the University of Oregon’s School of Journalism and Communication (SOJC). This class challenges students to produce professional media narratives across audio, visual and textual media platforms. This assignment was created to help students in the SOJC identify an interesting subject and construct a story around a short in-person interview. In preparation for this story, I reached out to the owner of Brick Builders toy store to set up and conduct an interview at the Eugene location.

After the interview, I compiled my notes into a journalistic narrative. This text feature story demonstrates my understanding of textual flow, ability to communicate a compelling perspective and grammatical attention to detail. Most importantly, this assignment reinforced my mastery of the AP style guide and solidified my understanding of how to meaningfully supplement my writing with quotation.
