Makayla Hogenson recently completed an internship with the River Stories Media Festival. As this event was the first of what the organizers hope becomes an annual event, Makayla was tasked in creating branding and promotional materials for the festival, which was held at Kearney’s World Theatre on March 29, 2018. Makayla designed a logo for the festival, created and distributed posters, made an opening animation for the festival, and acted as emcee for the event.
