Our Mission

The Media Portfolio is responsible for maintaining the team’s image and promoting the work we do at UTAT Space Systems. We help communicate the purpose and “big picture” of our projects to others, encapsulating what it means to redefine limits. Our main responsibilities include:

• creating promotional content for UTAT’s Instagram, LinkedIn, or TikTok accounts that adhere to UTAT’s branding scheme
• developing merch designs to represent our projects and commemorate major milestones
• maintaining the Space System’s page on UTAT’s website, ensuring that the information therein is accurate and up-to-date
• documenting Space Systems events for the purposes of record-keeping and use in future content
• managing outreach and communication to external media entities interested in promoting UTAT Space Systems

Media Request

1. If you need a social media post, poster, template, etc. made, send a message to #ss-media and tag @Riann detailing the following information:
   • Type of material (e.g. LinkedIn post, Instagram reel, event poster, certificate, etc.)
     • unless otherwise specified, Instagram posts will have square dimensions (1080 x 1080) and any printed material will be for letter sized paper
   • Content on material (e.g. event details, photos to use, links, etc.)
   • Date needed by
     • Note that we need at least 72 hours prior to the posting date for social media posts. If it is urgent, please specify it is so.
   • Other notes/details to include
2. A member of the Media Portfolio will send you the requested material for feedback
3. If you are requesting a social media post for UTAT’s social media accounts, be sure to include a caption that you want to be used. Once the post is good to go, you or Riann can send it to the #media-request channel on UTAT Media’s Discord server (linked in “Artifacts” above) and ask them to post it.
   • Note: if you already have a graphic made for any social media posts (i.e. you don’t need Media to make one for you), you can send it directly to the #media-request channel.
   • Disclaimer: if you make your own graphics for a post, the Media team can choose to remake it if it does not follow UTAT branding guidelines or the current social media theme (see UTAT Branding Guidelines).

IMPORTANT: Any request regarding social media, new merch, or website edits will undergo final review by the Director of Media.

ALSO IMPORTANT: UTAT Media plans out content for the month beforehand, so if you already know you want something posted, let Riann or the Director of Media know before the end of the preceding month so that they can input it in the Socials Plan. Refer to the **UTAT Social Media Guidelines** for more information.
