#2 |
Longer
term work/study type internship: |
| Description |
An opportunity to assist with and learn all aspects
of running a free-lance photography business. Internships
last at least 2-3 months and will be approximately 2-3
days a week and include shoot assistance, marketing
and promotions, shoot planning, stock photography file
management, image cleaning and manipulation with Photoshop,
general office work and more. Currently, there's an
emphasis on environmental portraiture (see maziarzpeople.com
) and local travel photography (see parkcitystock.com
) along with some individual sports photography (see
sportsstockphotography.com ) |
| Requirements |
1.
Personal, academic and/or work references.
2.
Advanced Photoshop skills. Additional skills such
as html & Flash would be appreciated.
3.
A love of photography. |
What
You Get |
1.
Learn how to run a successful photography business.
2. Help with self-assignments.
3. Consultation on starting your own web-based stock
photography business.
4.
College credit is possible (this depends on your school's
requirements.)
In
my experience, even though these benefits have been
offered in the past, they require a self-motivated
individual to take advantage of them. Are you self-motivated?
|
| Pay |
Stipend TBD.
|
| Timeframe |
Flexible, but heaviest shooting times are summer and
winter rather than spring and fall. Ideally, we should
try to plan a week-long try-out period to make sure
we work together well before we both commit to the internship.
