The New Media Team!

Hello guys,

As you've probably noticed, the Media Team was actively looking for new members to join the ESOC Team. Once again, we're proud to welcome @deleted_user4 @chrisie and @JakeyBoyTH. What you probably don't know is the reason behind it. What you don't yet know is the roles everyone is going to have. For the sake of transparency, we will inform you about this in this post.

Currently, every schedule and every stream is being coordinated by Bram and I. This task basically exists out of four things: helping people to schedule during the week, creating a streaming schedule, arranging casters, and managing/coordinating the stream. Especially the last thing requires a lot of time and effort. When there are 4 streams a week during the early stages of the tournament (Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday), one of us has to be here to coordinate well between casters and players. This primarily means telling the streamers and players what to and when. When either Bram or I are not here due to personal reasons or vacation, there's only one person left who has to do the full process of scheduling games, arranging casters and coordinating the stream. After being there helping to arrange 3/5 big tournaments (Winter 2015, Autumn 2016 and Spring 2017) and several smaller events, Bram and I feel like we're done with it and want to focus on other things within ESOC.
You guessed right: We were lacking manpower! Luckily we now have enough people to continue doing our job, but the new additions will result in different responsibilities from now on. These are listed below:

:food: Mr_Bramboy: Media Team Leader. Closely monitors media team members and makes sure the team works together efficiently.
:wood: MCJim: Social Media Manager (YouTube (ESOCTV), Twitch, Facebook, Twitter). Also involved in organizing events.
:export: Chrisie10101: Twitch stream manager, helping the players to schedule and helping to organize new events.
:coin: JakeyBoyTH: Twitch stream manager, helping the players to schedule and helping to organize new events.
:pop: SirCallen: News Post Writer. Writes about events, the ESOC team, and the ESOC Patch.

As you can see, Bram and I are not primarily responsible for the streams anymore. This does not mean that the quality of the streams will deteriorate, as we will still be involved behind the scenes to make sure everything is done correctly. Chrisie and Jakey will take over these tasks from now on. They have already proven themselves in the past weeks and we are very enthusiastic about their future work!

It always feels a bit sad to quit one of the most important jobs. To share my knowledge with the other Media Team members and with you, I'm proud to release the Step-by-step guide to a successful stream management. It's written by me and translated by Mr_Bramboy. The goal internally is to guide new media team members. The goal for the public is to increase our transparency and to allow the public to see how we work. The guide can be found down below. Take a look if you are interested, of course it's not obligated. The guide can be viewed in Dutch and English.

We hope to have informed you sufficiently. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to ask them down below! :biggrin:

Very neat, complete and professional stuff.
For what purpose is the Dutch one written, a presentation?

I wrote the guide in Dutch, because that's easier for me and it goes faster. So, the Dutch version is the original one and then Bram translated it into English. Perfect teamwork I'd say!

Thank you for all that you guys do for this community and this game. Without the commitment and expertise of the Media Team, people who give up their own time to create great content for the rest of us, ESOC would not exist. No other person or group in AoE has done so much work out of love for the game and its players. There is no way that I as a player of this amazing game can ever thank you enough.

He left once, mainly because he wasn't working on writing and instead was being bugged by other, less exciting things, such as diarouga and his army of smurfs/trolls. He's back now and he'll be working solely on writing, his specialty.
