Team TC/TK Social Media Internship

Videography

Created an idea from a trend on Instagram Reels that the mascots could take part in for Live Purple Give Gold day. Filmed, edited, and posted this video to Instagram Reels and additionally collaborated with @northerniowa Instagram.

Graphic Design

Communicated with past alum of Team TC/TK to get 2 of their favorite photos, if past mascot, then one of them in suit and one of them out for the graphic. Then, created graphic on Canva for past graduates from the program. Posted a new graphic every Thursday for a "Throwback Thursday" to X and Facebook. Once all were revealed on X and Facebook, a carousel post was made on Instagram with all of them.

Holiday Graphic

Last minute holiday graphic for Easter 2025. Edited a photo from UNI Day at the Capitol and turned it into an Easter graphic in Canva.

Viral Posts

Got content from Mascot Madness Race Challenge from the Drake Relays 2025 with TC, Herky, Cy, and Spike (all of Iowa's 4 major colleges). The mascots posed as a viral Spiderman meme. Posted to Instagram, X, and Facebook and became one of the hottest posts on the mascot's accounts.

My overall goal for this internship was to help start-up and create a following for Team TC/TK's Instagram page which had just been created in the beginning of March. The account has reached many people's screens through algorithm, shares, likes, and comments.

Additional responsibilities included running the Team TC/TK Facebook page, TC Panther X Account, and TK Panther X Account.
