HAd the interview all went well..They want me to start on Thursday at one! I explained to them that I had allot to learn but have the eye ... he said i could eith go stringer or Intern/ stringer.. he said that if i was serious about going into it intern would be the best option .. wouldn't get paid much it would be more like college but could learn the ins and outs of the paper and photo journalism and do stringer work from time to time. I told him that it wasnt money as much as the oppertunity to learn ... so he said like three days a week like 1-6ish .. i would have to learn a MAC Which i know nothing about and the way the paper does things .. and helping with deadlines and organising photos and looking up stuff then going out in the field with the photgraphers and watching then eventually shooting!! Hey its a start even if i dont get payed much .i would learn allot and that is very exciting to me. they are getting new canons and i could use thier cams if i go out on a shoot!... yippeee..!! the words "SO can you come in on Thursday of this week"?? were VERY good words in my mind.,. yeah its a start!! HE said it was almost impossible to get into it anyother way and he liked the fact that i am a few steps ahead of the other interns that i understand composition and how to go out and shoot.. !! thanks for all your support on here..!! lol most of the other interns are like college age so i would be the old lady...( gets out the cane!! HAHA ) Still have to talk to Mike about it he might not like the fact that its not a money thing for now...and that dinner might not be ready for him 3 days a week ( the next hurdle lol) kimmers! :O)
