Officially, my 120 hours are over. Fifteen Sundays and the occasional Saturday following and learning are over, but all is not lost! Last Saturday I was able to actually freelance, although I had to look through the assignment book and find things for myself. I shot a local (read: small) […]
Category: Internship
Practicum internship at The Capital.
Life, which happens to include interning
This time of year always makes me pensive. I never look at summer and think “this is nice, but what happened last summer?” whereas winter constantly has me thinking of winters past. Cold weather reminds me of Susquehanna, and of working shows, of starting friendships with those who are no […]
Intern: Take 12
Three weeks left. Holy crap. Finally, I did a good enough job to make a slide show. The second picture made it into the paper, pretty big, too, but not in color. Anyway, if you want to see some pirates having tea and dancing, go ahead and click here. For […]
Interning, Days 10 & 11
Last week I photographed a “Halloween Happening” on the day after Halloween, so that didn’t run. I did have a bit of fun running around in the dark trying to properly focus my photos and legibly write peoples names. The haunted barn only became scary the third time I went […]
Internship: Day Nine
Please allow this image to speak as to my day as an intern at The Capital. Sundays bring the best and worst. Yes, that is a helicopter dropping packets of candy over a football field while hordes of children (and their parents) wait in anticipation. Yes, it is five days […]
CAT Career Panel
Usually I don’t go to these kinds of things, and when I do, I find the people trite or the message useless. This time, however, was completely different. So here’s a panel that 1) is relevant to my life 2) is required for class 3) I have to photograph 4) […]
Interning, Continued
This weekend happened to be one of the most amazing things ever, which is needed considering that for the rest of the week I have two projects, a test, a cold, and my period. But I didn’t say all of that out loud. Also, the gear shift on my car […]
Internship: Day Six
The paper had no assignments for us today, so Paul and I trolled Annapolis for fun things happening. Despite a BEAUTIFUL fall day, very few people were outside for us to stalk. Rather, everybody and their mother attended the US Sailboat show this weekend and thus all of America descended […]
Internship: Day Five
Obligatory blog post after interning… I think I’m getting the hang of things. Still haven’t gone out on my own yet, but that’s mainly because I haven’t had the time. Working six days a week at the castle (in the dark, with broken computers), interning Sundays, class Tuesday/Thursday, and trying […]
Day Four and More
Holy crap life moves fast. Suddenly I’m working (basically) 9-5 seven days a week. Six weeks ago I had a job that made me physically ill, a boyfriend who bothered me for reasons I couldn’t pin-point, and began thinking that I would never break into the world of journalism. Now […]
