Today I am announcing that a restructure and reevaluation of the Culture executive staff has recently completed. As a result, I have dismissed 19 members of staff and assigned existing staff into new categories.
These changes outlined below will also be reflected in the Executive Staff application thread very soon.
1. Event Management - led by Deputy Minister SillyString.
Event management is a huge part of what the Ministry of Culture has been known for since 2012. Events require careful planning and implementation, and require significant time and staffing resources. Staff involved in this area will have the opportunity to support the work of myself and SillyString on the following projects in the coming term:
- TNP Public Holidays
- TNP NS World Fair booth/hosting application
- Christmas/New Year Event planning
2. Games and Entertainment - led by Deputy Minister Yukkira.
Another very important area to the Culture Ministry, this is also to serve as the preliminary announcement that Yukkira will be joining as a Deputy Minister responsible for this area of work. For the Friendship Fair, Yukkira has already hosted a number of activities including movie watching, card games, among others. For the remaining part of the term, we will be hosting the 2017 Lennart Awards, organising regular games and entertainment on discord, community VC sessions, and carrying out the flagged review/additions to other key areas of the forum. Staff involved in this area will have the opportunity to support the work of myself and Yukkira on the following projects in the coming term:
- Discord games/entertainment: movie watching, cards against humanity hosting, other activities.
- QandA Seminars and VC sessions
- 2017 Lennarts implementation
- Review and additions to games and arts activities.
- Review and additions to university discussions
3. Roleplay Events and Promotion - led by Deputy Minister Goyannes
The Ministry will continue to work with St George and other RP moderators in promoting all that our regional roleplay community has to offer. In addition, the Ministry will conduct a recruitment effort of leading RPers to bring them into the Culture Staff to assist in implementing this promotional agenda. We will revise guides currently in place, with a particular focus on the national information subforum in order to encourage it's greater use. Aside from continuing the operation of the Stories of the North Pacific award program, we will also be exploring a flagship region wide roleplay event, to allow RPers to participate as characters from nations, instead of as nations exclusively. Staff involved in this area will have the opportunity to support the work of myself and Goyannes on the following projects in the coming term:
- Promotion of the RP community in-game
- Recruitment of RPers to Executive Staff for Culture
- Development of guides for factbooks (easy conversion for on-site content to forum side content).
- Hosting of region wide RP event
- Launch of Eras Magazine
- Continued operation of Stories of the North Pacific
4) Graphic Design - led by Deputy Minister Artemis.
An important supporting role across all areas of the Ministry - Graphic Design! Artemis has been doing a fantastic job but also has a busy schedule, and would love some helpers. Staff involved in this area will have the opportunity to support the work of myself and Artemis on the following projects in the coming term:
- Design of badges and graphics for the World Fair
- Design of Lennarts Awards
- Supporting role to other Ministry items
- Assisting with Eras Magazine Template
With thanks,
