Students- Send Your Ideas & Voices for the DYBP Podcast

If you don’t already know, Jen Vellenga hosts a podcast: Ditch Your Backup Plan: Stories of rewarding careers between starving artist and celebrity.  

It has a whole new meaning now that so many artists are out of work, but the interviews continue.

The first bonus episode during the Covid-19 shutdown will be, “College Creatives: Advice for Youth.” The idea is to give creative youth- elementary through high school students – some ideas from creative college students on how they could pass the time using their imagination while they are stuck at home.

Send me your voice memos by email: vellenga@ksu.edu, 3-5 minutes total.  You can record in one take or a few clips. Please include:

  • Your name, major and year in school
  • What you are doing to stay creative
  • How you entertained yourself as a kid
  • Directions for a project (optional)

I can add text instructions in my show notes. I am also open to a student creating video instructions for the projects- real or hilarious.

Thank you! Jen Vellenga
