Trying to keep in touch with everything that is going on when the rest of life doesn't come to a stand still to allow it, can be difficult.
I was informed that I would receive regular emails or phone calls updating me on the planning of the Fringe Festival. It has been a while since I have had any communication with the co-ordinators B-Arts or Mark Webster regarding the next meetings or assigning me tasks to do.
Once communication is lost for more than a week, plans and ideas change. This means I have missed important developments and vital information I want to be collecting towards my research on how a event is put together successfully.
It has made me realise that depending on emails is never a good thing, and you cannot always guarantee that a reply will be received when you try and get in contact.
I have emailed again enquiring what my role is meant to be and when the next meetings are. If I haven't had a response by the weekend then I will swing by Mark Webster's office and hope that he is there to have a chat with.
After the Easter break, Mark has scheduled a tutorial with me so I can ask him questions and for him to give me some advice and update me on the Fringe Festival. I have compiled a list of questions to interrogate him with, consisting of specific Fringe information and more general events management.
In the meantime, I will continue with my research and hope that communication resumes soon so I am able to get involved and gain valuable primary research.
