TNMH Social Reporter Media Badge – Download and Create your accreditation
Self-accreditation - Declare yourself!
We need badges
The reaction and excitement for the TNMH Social Reporter self-accredtion media badge is a bit stunning!
I’d hoped to do a few more tweaks to the copy on the back, but my perfectionist nature is delaying the release and the Olympics are here, well basically NOW.
You’ve noticed laminate badges around everyone’s neck and now you can have you own to declare yourself as a documenter and a media revolutionary.
DIY Style
So please download, print, cut, glue and lanyard-ize your own badge after reviewing the conditions of use (ownership, sharing, tagging) and stay tuned for future iterations (you have suggestions? please add a comment).
Directions
- Print the badge – cut on crop marks – choose whichever layout you prefer:
TNMH Spocial Reporter Media Badge v.2.pdf &/or
TNMH Spocial Reporter Media Badge v.3.pdf &/or
TNMH Spocial Reporter Media Badge v.4.pdf - Add a photo – you probably have one laying around, glue it (2″x2″ -ish)
- Fill in the back - add your name, handle and read the notes (sharpie works great)
- Stuff it, hang it – grab a lanyard and laminate from a previous event, stick your badge in it and hang it around your neck
- Meet friends – your TNMH badge is great for meeting-up with other social media makers
Details
