    My interest in the media world started back when I was in 7th grade. This spark first began in photography and has done nothing but grown since then. As I grew older this curiosity went from photography to television. The particular aspect of this field that draws my attention is the world of producing. Although I do not have any prior experience with producing, I know that an internship with WVUA 23 would be the perfect first step in one day becoming a producer. I learn very quickly and I will not stop something until it is completed in a proper manner. I am very eager to learn everything I can about producing and I know I will be able to do so through this internship. I enjoy working in a team-oriented setting where there is one common goal, as I am able to get along with all different types of people. I do not feel that any job is beneath me, and I am willing to do whatever possible in order to gain knowledge in…

    While all of the different skills that was discussed earlier would help me in my dream career, however there is a unique skill that will benefit more than the other is revision. Being a photographer the power of revision may be one of the most important skill. The photographer will need to constantly review their piece of work and try to improve on what that was wrong, if they do not revise on what was wrong then they will not understand the meaning of success. Photographer will need to know why they are doing the same mistakes over and over again so they can avoid it, especially when turning the final product. With the revision the photographer will be able to continue to learn what is needed to be done to get the best result that they want,…

    On November 20th, I attended Awesome Tapes from Africa at BAM Cafe in Brooklyn, NY. When I first arrived, the DJ, Brian Shimkovitz, hadn’t started his set yet so they were just playing regular music to pass the time. But I was shocked to see so many people had showed up just to see him. This was the first time I’ve heard of him and I was excited to see what he was going to play. As I was waiting for the show to start, I was expecting to see him walk in with guards or as soon as he walked in for everyone to ask for an autograph but I noticed that he was just walking around like he was also waiting for the show to start. He walked past me a couple times before I actually noticed and recognized him. From what I gathered from the BAM Cafe and…

    Daniel Ruyts deserves employer of the year because of how awesome he is and how he makes work. Daniel is nice, helpful, friendly, funny, great leadership, and he isn’t strict but makes sure everyone’s completing their job. Daniel has influenced me on several things. He taught me to treat others how I want to be treated. Think before I act. Make sure I finish what I started. All of those revolve around work someway somehow whether I’m dealing with customers or co-workers. Another tip he told me was, if I need to get out of work early and were slow, to make sure everything is perfect and go ask if I can leave. On the other hand Daniel has made the store much better than how it used to be!…
