In August 2024, I started my third year of training as a mediamatician at msd. I completed my first two years of training at Bict AG*1. I am now in my fourth year of training and have gained a lot of valuable experience and worked on exciting projects over the past year.
My daily tasks include preparing blog posts for Godloves.me and msd-online.ch, keeping the websites up to date, and implementing new content or features. There are always larger projects or something outside of the normal daily routine, which are very exciting. Like the plentiful.garden website, which I implemented from scratch based on a design, which was a great experience because I was able to implement and create an entire website on my own. Or the new Change-camps.ch website, which I was able to implement. Above all, I was able to implement many complex animations. I learned a lot from this site and I am very happy with the end result.
Other projects included editing a promotional video for the Beach Volleyball Change Camp, which we then published online. I also created an animated video for the Change Camps snack campaign. What I always enjoy is taking photos at events or camps, such as during KILA or Youth Camp. Tasks like these add variety to my daily routine.
I really enjoy doing technical things, such as building a website or finding a solution to a problem, but I also really enjoy creating videos or taking photos. I would like to improve my creative skills, but through my work I am able to do so little by little.
Besides the work, I appreciate the community and sharing of faith at msd. Every morning, we take time to pray together, thank God for what he does, and bring our concerns before him. I also particularly enjoy the opportunity to participate in the camps. I have been helping out at Kila for four years now, which I always enjoy.
During my last year at msd, I was able to improve my skills as a mediamatician and also grow in my faith. These experiences make my apprenticeship varied, educational, and personally enriching.
