The project includes an elementary- and middle school-level activity worksheet, designed by Ivy Tech Northeast visual communications student, Stephanie Petras. The coloring worksheet provides students with the opportunity to imagine and create their future Fort Wayne.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I continue to be encouraged by the excitement and momentum we&#8217;re experiencing as we come together to make riverfront development a top priority,&#8221; says Fort Wayne Mayor Tom Henry. &#8220;It&#8217;s great to see Leadership Fort Wayne take a proactive role in our collective efforts to invest in the future and position our City as a destination place and quality of life leader in the region and country.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Operation: Riverfront connected with companies and organizations across northeast Indiana to complete the project, and funds and in-kind donations were valued at more than $15,000. Last fall, the team put out a request for proposals for video production services to various companies in northeast Indiana. After carefully consideration of the proposals, Lynchpin Creative was selected as its creative consultant.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our hope is this project will help build even more awareness and education in northeast Indiana with our general public and our city&#8217;s future generation currently in our school systems,&#8221; says Andrew Welch, executive director of Marketing and Communications at Ivy Tech Northeast, and LFW 2015 graduate. &#8220;The video is also ideal for utilization through social media and other more formal digital channels.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Operation: Riverfront is made up of emerging Fort Wayne leaders:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alec Johnson, Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation<\/li>\n<li>Lynell Sparks, Ivy Tech Community College Northeast<\/li>\n<li>Andrew Welch, Ivy Tech Community College Northeast<\/li>\n<li>Nicholas Elkins, AEP Indiana Michigan Power<\/li>\n<li>Adrian Guenther, Lincoln Financial Group<\/li>\n<li>Mike Wallace, Star Financial Bank<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Supporters of the project include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Greater Fort Wayne Inc.<\/li>\n<li>Indiana Michigan Power<\/li>\n<li>City of Fort Wayne<\/li>\n<li>Ivy Tech Community College Northeast<\/li>\n<li>21Alive<\/li>\n<li>NBC33<\/li>\n<li>Lynchpin Creative<\/li>\n<li>Fort Wayne TinCaps<\/li>\n<li>Cinema Center<\/li>\n<li>American Honors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The video and classroom activity can be found online at <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"https:\/\/www.riverfrontfw.org\/get-thevisuals\/videos-presentations\"><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PROJECT DETAILS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The 5-minute video features<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Interviews with Riverfront Development players and other residents of northeast Indiana<\/li>\n<li>Past, present and future of the three rivers<\/li>\n<li>Footage of activities representative of uses and activities proposed as part of the plan<\/li>\n<li>Motion graphics and video composites that depict a before and after animation Classroom component:<\/li>\n<li>The video helps students see and understand what&#8217;s on the horizon and planned for downtown Fort Wayne, specifically the Riverfront project.<\/li>\n<li>Following the video viewing, teachers distribute a classroom activity worksheet that provide students with an opportunity to imagine and create their future Fort Wayne.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Digital displays<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Over the next several months a special 42&#8243; digital display screen and kiosk will travel to key locations throughout the city.<\/li>\n<li>The video will be distributed to partners and other interested organizations to display on their own internal networks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Other distribution channels<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>As part of its commitment to serving the community, WPTA\/WISE will run public service spots throughout its broadcast.
