Exposure provides a forum for student groups and area non-profits at Michigan State University and the Greater Lansing area. On the show, you'll hear discussions about the groups themselves as well as the relevant issues of today.
From WBDM East Lansing, this is Exposure, a biweekly news feature show that lets you know everything happening at MSU that you otherwise might not know about. I'm your host, Amelia Duffield, and welcome to Exposure. Welcome
Speaker 2:to Exposure. I'm Amelia Duffield. Today, I have the amazing pleasure of flashing the camera on the Shutter Squad, a video, film, photography club focused on casual creative collaboration. I'm joined in the studio by Michael, Brianna, and Alexis. Thank you guys so much for joining us today.
Speaker 3:For sure.
Speaker 2:Cool. If you guys wouldn't mind introducing yourselves, if you wanna talk about your major, your year at Michigan State, and how you got involved in the Shutter Squad.
Speaker 3:Yeah. I can start. My name is Michael Roggenbaum. I'm a senior. I study advertising management and I am the president of Shutter Squad.
Speaker 3:Shutter Squad started I think like two years ago but it wasn't like as official as like a club or anything, just it was kind of this idea. And I guess the notion was like we've seen, I guess with the uptick of social media, we've seen like this ability for creative people to kind of like share what they're doing and like broadcast that more. And those types of people needed like some type of environment to kind of like come together and I don't know I guess we all agree that it's important for creative people to have creative friends and that's that's kind of what our goal was to make and our good friend Jonah Brown it was his idea initially and he started it and then we turned it into a club and now I think we have upwards of like 150 members. And it's all mostly camera people, videographers, photographers, people that just do film, but then we even have people in the club that are like creative writers and stuff like that and the majors are anywhere from engineers to creative majors. So it's super cool to see, like, that group of people come together.
Speaker 4:Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. I'm Brianna Schmidt. I'm a junior journalism major here at MSU, and I'm the vice president of Shutter Squad.
Speaker 4:I joined spring semester of freshman year because I worked with Jonah who created the club at the state news. And so I saw, like, all the cool stuff and the cool people that were a part of it, and it just looked, like, perfect. And, yeah, since I joined, like, Shutter Squad, everyone was immediately, like, so welcoming. And, like, I just, like, hit it off with everyone, and, like, we're all, like, best friends immediately. And they're, like, the people I hang out with all the time.
Speaker 4:Yeah. I'm Alexis Schmidt. I'm also a junior journalism major, and I'm the social media person for Shutter Squad. And, yeah, I joined the same time as Brianna, like, two years ago, spring semester. We knew a couple of people in the club.
Speaker 4:And then from there, I would say, like, yeah, what Brianna said, like, most of my best friends now that I hang out with all the time are from Shutter Squad, and it's just nice to have, like, that network because I feel like I wanna be where I am now, like, with all the stuff I'm doing, like, photo video wise. I wouldn't, like, have as much knowledge if I didn't meet these people or, like, it it's kind of a great way to get opportunities, like, through your friends and, like, through other people in the club.
Speaker 2:Yeah. I mean, you guys mentioned it's Shutter Squad's a pretty, like, relatively younger organization. There haven't been any challenges with that as it sort of hit the ground running?
Speaker 3:Yes. Definitely. Especially, like, as the club has grown every year. And I think a lot a lot of, like, the growing has been because of there's so many creative people sharing, like, their own stuff, but, like, since they're all in this club, like we're able to share that as a club. And I just think like that naturally draws attention and like incoming kids have seen that now and like we've had people now that don't even go to school here yet or kids from other schools like trying to start their own Shutter Squad which But has been yeah just like I guess like the basic things like learning how to book rooms like stuff like that has been we just had to figure it out on our own which is cool and it's like it's been a cool learning experience.
Speaker 3:Like we don't really know I guess how to run a club properly. But we figured that out and we've just kind of done things our own way and I feel like we're in a pretty good spot right now where people like to go to meetings and things like that.
Speaker 2:Cool. Yeah.
Speaker 4:Yeah. I feel like originally, like, joining, like, the first year, it kind of feels like it was more of like, oh, like, these are just my friends and we're doing, like, projects together. So once, like, the club grew more, like, last year and this year with, like, people that didn't know who we were or, like, didn't know what we do, like, just it was, like, kind of, like, a challenge to, like, really make it clear, like, what we're doing as a club and not just as, like, friends and stuff. And so we I feel like this year, we've had a pretty good structure going to how we have meetings and guest speakers and everything, and I think it's going really well now. Yeah.
Speaker 4:I would say, like, a big thing about Shutter Squad is it's, like, we're all involved in, like, so many other, like, media things on campus. It's kind of like a place where, like, everyone from all of those organizations comes together. So, like, going off of that with, like, challenges, I would say it's just, yeah, trying to define, like, what we do as a club. Like, if if we're showcasing our work or if we're, like, doing projects, like, that are, like, Shutter Squad projects. So yeah.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean so you guys are all on executive board. What does that kind of look like? What are your different positions entail?
Speaker 3:Yeah. So I think what's naturally happened has I guess the the people that were most active I think naturally took that role on maybe like two years ago. And then you know we had to since like we're in RSO we had to do like elections and things like that and I guess we just kind of communicated like beforehand anybody that was the most active, like they were gonna be the ones that were applying for these different positions. I transferred here as a sophomore. So I didn't really have any friends.
Speaker 3:So this was just like the first group that I like came in contact with, like just trying to find other creatives. And then since then like I've always gone to meetings and stuff. So I think I spent enough time where like we just kind of assumed, you know, like I might be stepping into this role as president and like I'm passionate about this because half of my friends are from Shutter Squad and then just everyone else on the e board we had to hold an election and I think Breen Alexis, I worked with them for like a year now so they kind of stepped into that position and yeah I guess it worked out pretty well. There weren't really any conflicts with that that was the one of the easier things to do, but I'd say like figuring out how to run meetings and like make the club more engaging has been tough. Like Alexis just said, it's been hard to like define exactly what it is.
Speaker 3:I mean you can like go to the Instagram and see cool stuff but like that doesn't doesn't help anybody out when they're thinking if they should join or not. And I guess like what we've kind of landed on this year is like it's primarily a creative club and like all these it's been a way for all these different kids that are in all these different media outlets, whether it be broadcast, creative, or just interested generally to kinda meet these other minds that are interested in similar areas.
Speaker 4:Yeah. And as far as as, like, our positions go, like, obviously, like, Alexis does social media. So, like, she posts on social media and, like, the treasurer, like, handles the money and stuff. But, like, I feel like we do have our set roles, but we mainly, like, work together as, like, a group about, like, everything. Like, there's some things that are hard to, like, just delegate to one person.
Speaker 4:So it's usually just, like, whoever can do this, like, you're gonna do that. And, like, we all just are always there for each other. And so that's really helpful. And then, again, with, like, the just, like, defining what Shutter Squad is as a club, I think we just notice what people are confused about, like new people that haven't came before, and we, like, try and correct that. Or, like, we notice what works and what hasn't worked at, like, last year's meetings that we're, like, making a new structure for this year and stuff like that.
Speaker 4:So yeah. And I would just say in terms of, like, eboard, we're just trying to, like, continue with, like, the club's intended vision, I guess. Because I would say, like, joining the club freshman year, and I, like, obviously didn't have as much experience as I did now. And, like, seeing all the people in the eboard roles, I was like, wow. Like, I'll never be as good as them.
Speaker 4:Like, they're so talented and all this stuff. But I feel like through being in the club and, like, through, like, meeting those people is how, like, got to where I am now and, like, got into this position to be able to, like, feel confident in, like, moving the club forward.
Speaker 2:Yeah. I love that. Well, I really admire, like, the community cultivated by the Shutter Squad, especially, like, by creatives for other creatives. So I wanted to ask, what are you guys personally most passionate about creating? Like, what kind of arts do you like to create and how has the Shudder Squad served as a outlet for that, I guess?
Speaker 3:Yeah. That's a good question. Thank you. I think think us three, like if we were to define ourselves and like what we do, feel like we're primarily photographers. I feel like we could safely say that, which is not the same for most people in the club.
Speaker 3:A lot of people are like super interested in video or broadcast or other things in terms of mixed media, but I feel like, yeah, we're maybe first photographers. That was kind of like the thing that I fell in love with.
Speaker 2:Gotcha.
Speaker 3:I went to Central Michigan freshman year and I honestly like had a Canon Rebel just like this cheap camera, and I started messing around and working with like the sports there. And it just kind of snowballed into me getting these opportunities like upgrading equipment and meeting I've always been a social person so just like meeting other creatives and
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:I don't know. I didn't have this gift when I was in high school so I don't think it's fair to say that I there weren't people like this then but like just dropping into a bigger environment like Michigan State and like there's so many people that have similar interests and I just like I'm I'm a pretty competitive person so like I was always comparing myself to others and just like meeting all these other people and like being able to call them your friend is, like, way more important than, like, improving your work based on opportunities. So
Speaker 4:Yeah. I would also say, like, us three, like, we all worked together at the State News, like, the like, last year. And, like, that's really where at least me and Alexis, like, started doing, like, more, like, sports photography and stuff like that. And so that's kind of what we've been focused on since then, and, like, that's what Michael does a lot of too. But the cool thing about Shutter Squad is, like, we have people who do, like, obviously, all kinds of things.
Speaker 4:But, like, something that, like, I'm really interested for bro. Something that I'm really interested in, for example, is more like like fiber arts, like, more like stuff like that that's not necessarily, like, photography or, like, using a camera, but it's still, like, creative. And, like, we still incorporate those things into Shutter Squad. Like, one of our eboard members, Dakota, like, always does a slide about, like, a cool, like, art thing to do. And she does a lot of, like, cyanotyping, which is, like it's still, like, kinda like photography, but it's more of, like, an artistic approach.
Speaker 4:So, like, we really have, like, a very diverse group with a lot of, like, interest and stuff. So, like, it's it's cool to see what everyone else is most interested in and, like, getting inspiration from that. Yeah. And kind of like what Michael was saying, like, it's cool to have this, like, network of all these people that are doing, like, all these different things. And I feel like a lot of the times we can get overwhelmed thinking about, like, oh, like, I'm a photographer, but, like, there's so many other, like, great photographers.
Speaker 4:But then once, like, we're all, like, together and, like, you know these people, it's, like, it's not like it's a competition. It's, like, we can all succeed, and we're all, like, helping each other succeed. So
Speaker 3:And I think, like, one other thing was we did participation this year. Yeah. And it's always really fun just like see people kind of show up and like, you know, there were people that would like show up and they would like look at her work and they'd be like, oh my goodness, like this is so cool. Like, I wanna be able to do this. And, like, ultimately, we were, like, first of all, like, you're way ahead of us because you've been doing this, like, before when I started, like, I I wasn't doing this in high school.
Speaker 3:But then they would be like the question that we got all the time was like what can Shutter Squad do for me? And our thing was like well, you know, like if if you're looking for opportunities like somebody in this club is in a spot that you're gonna want to be in whether it be a few months or a few years. So these are the people that you want to hang out with. Obviously they're awesome people but they're in a spot that it's gonna like give you an opportunity to succeed.
Speaker 2:Well going off of opportunities and networking are there some projects Shutter Squad's done that you've been a part of that you're particularly proud of or something you're looking forward to doing with Shutter Squad in the future?
Speaker 3:I think honestly the biggest I don't know if I'd call it like a project but just like the events we do as a club are just like they they just make me feel so good because it takes I mean it takes a lot to like put a whole event together and like get all these people together and then we're sitting there like oh maybe nobody's gonna show up to the meetings but just like it's really rewarding to do that and our meetings like the way we go about them is each member of the e board stands up there and we kind of give like our different we all have different slides that we present and like each member has a different slide that they do for that week. So like for instance my slide I'll like highlight a member of the week and we just try and make it as interactive as possible and I think last year we really wanted to do like some type of film festival or something where we could do like a big show at the end of the year and present everyone's work And I think that is a great idea, but I think the one thing with Shutter Squad is that everyone is so busy.
Speaker 3:Whether it be in school or with other projects, and I feel like sometimes it's not fair to ask people to sign up for something ahead of time. So I guess, like, our biggest thing is, like, we're we're gonna put people in a position to meet others that, like, wanna see them succeed and have similarities. Yeah.
Speaker 4:Yeah. Kinda related to that, I think one of our biggest roles being on e board and stuff is, like, being like, connecting our members with opportunities, but also, like, just being, like, a familiar face and being, like, talkative and making people feel comfortable because the galleries and stuff we do are really cool. But, like, nobody's gonna do them if they just are like, oh, like, why am I here? Like, none of these people are my friends or whatever. And, like, we I think, like, a big thing with, like, photographers and stuff is, like, people are, like, if you're good at what you do, then they're, like, intimidated by you.
Speaker 4:Right. And they they kind of talked about that earlier. But, like, that's that's kind of like what Shutter Squad does is, like, if we're, like, there and, like, talking to these people and then approaching them first and stuff, they're gonna feel a lot more comfortable and, like, get more connected and, like, do better for themselves. So that's something that, like, we we all try to do is, like, talk to different people at every meeting and stuff like that and just make sure everyone feels included. Yeah.
Speaker 4:Definitely. Yeah. Kinda just going off what you guys were saying, like, it's just cool to, like, see people show up to things and, like, the amount of people that show up to things because, like, it's not like we, like, take attendance. Like, you don't have to be there, but, like, we're all just, like like Brianna said, like, we try to make it, like, a comfortable space for everyone. So they'll keep showing up to things and, like, keep wanting to show up to things.
Speaker 4:And then that ultimately makes them feel more comfortable about, like, the work they're doing and, like, showing it off. So, like, we just recently had our gallery up at Hooked, the coffee shop. Yeah. We, like we started that last year, and we just did that on Sunday. Like, any member could just bring in a frame with a photo or, like, anything they've taken, and we hung them up.
Speaker 4:And it'll be unhooked for, like, the whole month. So, like, people coming in can, like, see our work. And, like, we all have our, like, Instagram under, like, the photo they took. So it's a good way for, like, it's a good way for like anyone to get their work seen, but like especially for those like newer members that like are trying to
Speaker 3:Totally. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2:I actually saw the gallery opening at Hooked and I wanted to ask you about it. So I'm glad you brought it up. What kind of went into planning that? How did it go? Yeah.
Speaker 2:Sorry.
Speaker 3:There you go. Well, I used to live, like, in that building Mhmm. Yeah. After I transferred. So I used to spend a lot of time in Hooked, it's just cool.
Speaker 3:It's a I mean, it's perfect for someone like us.
Speaker 2:Mhmm.
Speaker 3:You just sit there and get our work done. It's a cool environment. But I think I I was in there one day and I saw my friend's photo on the wall. Our friend Saul, who he just does film photography and he's like incredible. And we we saw I saw this photo on the wall and then I texted him.
Speaker 3:I was like, hey, like what's this about? Like instantly, was like, Shutter Squad could easily do this. Like we have so many people that can put some cool stuff up here. And he was like, yeah, I just like he was, I guess he participated in some community darkroom event. Oh, cool.
Speaker 3:Yeah. They did like something there. So I was like, oh, well, that tells me like they'd be easy to collaborate with. Like, they're trying to help out college kids. And if you've ever been in Hooked, like the owner Matt is super cool.
Speaker 3:Mhmm. He's always walking around. So I recognized him and then I just asked him, was like, hey, like I'm part of this club, like we have so many talented people, like we'd love to get a gallery up here. And he was basically just like, yeah, like email me, we'll get this figured out. And last year like the month that we did it, it was super cool but it was like a mess.
Speaker 3:Like we just randomly were like okay this is the day we're gonna do it. And then all these like people are sitting there like with their headphones on and we're like banging nails into the wall like dust is falling on their computer. I'm like standing on the like the bar countertop area like it was crazy. But yeah we we got that done, it looked really cool, it's obviously sweet to see your work like up in person. And then the month that we did that was over winter break, so it was cool but it was like kind of we were most people are leaving after and then by the time we came back they were like ready to get taken down.
Speaker 3:So then I think we knew that we'd be able to do it again. So we just had one of the members of our e board like communicate with them and we just made it like a little bit more official and it was super cool. They brought out like wine and like Oh cool.
Speaker 4:Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Another thing I was gonna say is I also think, like, doing something like that, like, every year is really cool because I would say, like, last year, like, looking back at, like, the picture I put up and stuff, I'm, like, I was like, oh, like, this isn't that good, like, all this stuff. And, like, now I feel like I've grown so much in, a year and, like, I'm actually proud of, like, the stuff I put on the wall.
Speaker 4:So it's cool to see, like, that progression.
Speaker 2:Yeah. Absolutely. Well, I you know, as someone who considers themselves creative, I feel like it's really, really valuable to, like, set up not only opportunities, but, like, that social networking of other creative people. Because, like, getting other people's feedback and even just friendship, I just feel like that's so crucial, especially in, like, a really big campus setting like Michigan State. So what kind of person do you think makes a good fit for Shutter Squad?
Speaker 2:What kind of Michigan State student are you looking for?
Speaker 3:Yeah. I think the beauty of Shutter Squad is that my best friends I wouldn't consider creative. I know like everyone's creative in their own way but they just don't really like understand that like what I do and I think that's the same case for a lot of people whether they're involved with like camera camera stuff or not but I think just like having that like having that network of people that are coming from like it's it's such a cool like environment where people are coming from all over and like don't know. If it wasn't for Shutter Squad, like, wouldn't have met one of my best friends that's an international student and just things like that. I just think the the art of creativity in general just brings, like, so many different types of people together.
Speaker 3:So that's just rewarding in and of itself.
Speaker 4:We don't all have, like, the same end goal, but we all have, like, a similar, like, passion and, like, train of thought. And so I think, like, that's what makes it so easy for us to connect with each other in the first place and continue to grow with people who are similar. Because a lot of our new members might not know anyone, but also a lot of people that come back bring their friends, and then they'll bring their friends and stuff. So it's like we just have a good community of people who, like, think the same.
Speaker 3:Yeah. I think short answer, camera people. Like, the one thing that separates Shutter Squad from, like, other clubs is, like as participation people see Shutter Squad and like instantly if they have any sort of like camera or any interest in that like they're just so interested to figure out what it is. Mhmm. Because I guess that's like a question all the time.
Speaker 3:People are like, we don't really understand what this club is, and we don't necessarily always have like the most direct answer, but we can just tell them, you know, like what the club means to us. So, yeah. Short answer, photographer. Long answer, awesome people.
Speaker 4:Right.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 4:And I also think, like, this this might sound stupid, but it's just, like, people who want to be, like, good at what they do. Because when they see, like, our stuff and they're, like, oh, that's cool. Like Yeah. I wanna be a part of that. Like, that's why they would join.
Speaker 4:And that's what separates us from other clubs. Because, like, if somebody's just doing, like, a random photography job here as, like, a hobby or something, it's like they might not have the same, like, passion or interest as someone who would be in Shutter Squad. It's like we just I don't know. It's just kind of like the energy that we have, I
Speaker 2:guess. Yeah. Well, how do you guys because I know we've talked about wanting to, like, improve personal skills and encourage growth within Shutter Squad while balancing, you know, maintaining social relationships. How do you think Shutter Squad helps prepare members for their artistic future?
Speaker 3:I think it shows people what their desired role looks like. I mean it feels weird because I feel like I have no clue what I'm doing when I have a camera in my hand. But now that there's like younger members and freshmen and sophomore and if they need advice it's really cool to be able to answer their questions. Hey like how have you gotten this specific job or like just in general if they have any questions about their camera like it's probably something that I've done at this point just being here for three years and like working at the state news and I guess always having my camera in my hand and I've been able to like I think a lot of us we are so busy doing our own thing with our cameras that we're able to like take some of these other people along or we're collaborating with other people in Shutter Squad. And that's been really cool for me just like bringing people on set if I'm shooting like a campaign or something like that and kind of showing them like hey this is how this is how things work, like this is the right way to do things.
Speaker 3:And I know like when I was a sophomore Jonah did that a lot with me and I was able to see kind of like how to work like I was definitely afraid of like talking to like if I were to do like headshots or anything working with somebody just like grad photos I was like scared to like talk to people.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:It was super awkward and like seeing him do that kind of gave me the confidence to be like oh okay like it's not that hard like people are cool. And then I guess on top of that like how to network and increase your opportunities and stay hungry because there's a lot of people that do what we do now and Michigan State has a ton of opportunities but I guess a lot of people are learning how to like increase those opportunities among themselves.
Speaker 4:Yeah. I think it can be like really overwhelming at first. Like when you first come here there's a lot of different like routes you could take, a lot of different opportunities you could get involved in. And I think like I mean, like, I definitely didn't know the answers to, like, anything. And kind of just going, like, through the people I met my freshman year, like, like, there's just so many things that are so, like, niche or, like, things that you wouldn't even think to, like, look up, I feel like.
Speaker 4:But, like, those people, like, the seniors or, like, juniors, like, my freshman year, like, they have they had that stuff figured out. And then, like, just like what Michael said, like, I don't think we have all the answers now, but, like, we definitely, like, can answer, like, a lot of the questions that, like, the younger members have. And I think that's really nice to be able to guide them in that
Speaker 3:know someone.
Speaker 4:Yeah. Or we, like, know like, we just, like are, like, connected to more creatives. Like, not even that just go here, like, just in general. Like, we and then when we bring in, like, the guest speakers too, it's like yeah. And I think that now since we're all we're, like, juniors and seniors, like, we we figure out what works and what doesn't work, and we're able to, like, prevent other people from make like, doing stuff that's, like, not worth their time and stuff.
Speaker 4:And so I think just that and us being, like, in in leadership positions, like, kind of, like, forces us to grow and, like, be able to, like, teach people things and, like, inform people. Because, like like Michael said or Alexis, like, even if we don't know the answer, we know someone who does. And I think another thing that really, like, has elevated our, like, reach is, like, the guest speakers we've been able to have because they're all, like, super cool, super professional people. But, like, they're and they're not, like they're all super interesting and, like, are able to teach us things that we didn't know that they were going to. Yeah.
Speaker 4:And also, I would say, like, just the way we run the club, like how we were talking about earlier, how we just try and make, like, everyone comfortable and everyone, like like, I would say, like, anytime I have, like, a question about something that maybe I would be, like, embarrassed to ask or, like, something that, like, I have, like, no idea about, I know there's someone that I met through Shutter Squad that I would ask that question to. Yeah. And that would, like, actually help me and, like, be so willing to help and give me a good answer and, like, help me progress through that. So I would say that's a big thing also.
Speaker 3:Yeah. And I feel like if if, like having the guest we this year we've done a really good job with guest speakers. We've had what? Two? Three?
Speaker 3:Two. Two. We've had two guest speakers but they're like they're awesome. One of them is our friend. He's the staff photographer at Notre Dame University and the other one Matt Mitchell.
Speaker 3:He's like the sports photographer here and he's been doing it for like like thirty years. Hopefully I'm not I'm not off there.
Speaker 4:Twenty years?
Speaker 3:Yeah. Twenty years.
Speaker 2:Somewhere in there.
Speaker 3:Yeah. Somewhere. Yeah. But yeah, like just like these people are so cool and like they've been good to us as we've grown familiar with them just like shooting sports and stuff like that but like I think younger members seeing people like that come in and not be like up on a podium just like they're cool like they're chatting they can recognize that they're friends with us like it totally makes things whatever they're desiring for their career it's like makes it look like it's not out of reach.
Speaker 2:Absolutely.
Speaker 3:Sometimes like on Instagram it's a little like daunting and overwhelming when you're seeing all these pictures you're like oh my goodness how could I do that but then you see somebody come and talk to you and they're just a cool person.
Speaker 2:Yeah. Well, one last question for you. For any prospective new members of Shutter Squad, anyone looking to get in touch, how do you recommend they reach out to you? And do you have any advice?
Speaker 4:I would say anyone looking to join can definitely we have our group me link on our Instagram story highlights. And then you could obviously just always DM the account. Like, try to be super responsive and look through the requests and everything. But, yeah, that's a good way. Like, talk to anyone you know that's involved in it.
