When being asked to describe personal attributes about myself, I usually just classify myself as a "free spirit", but after some self-examination, I have come to realize that I am way more complex. I am a senior Mass Media major, with a concentration in TV/film, and a minor in History. Some of the characteristics that would describe me as a person are tailblazing, tenacious, eccentric, persistant, determined, and a little domineering.
Having the opportunity to participate in the The Reid Group at Clark Atlanta University Internship Project is an excellent juncture for mass media majors to amplify their ingenuity in the art. I plan to utilize all the information and constructive criticism that I retain from the course to assist me the New York City internship and future endeavours, ultimately leading to a jump start my career. This accomplishment would bring my intricate matriculation at CAU to a gratifying closing and allow me to enhance my skills that I need to master in order to develop into that "expert" intern that "effectively assist and support media professionals in various workplaces".
As mass media major, overcoming obstacles has become second nature and finding alternative methods a standard in our department. The Internship project will allow me to consolidate all that I have obtained in my five years at Clark Atlanta and evolve into a focused, structured, intuitive media personal. I have and continue to be involved in numerous activities to help advance my production skills in radio/television/film, such as becoming student producer for CAU Newsbreak. I have realized that working menial occupations as a main occupation is becoming an everyday hindrance to my intentness. Being that I only have three credit hours to complete, this will be the first time in my college career that I will be able to focus completely on my craft that has been bestowed upon me.
Being chosen to participate in this course and later obtaining New York City internship will expose me to a more competitive market and contribute to the skills that Clark Atlanta has exposed me too. I also know that you would not have any contrition in your decision if I were to be selected. I would aspire to intake as much knowledge that will be given, as well as time and devotion to any task that is set forth. Even if I were not chosen for the internship opportunity, I would still be appreciative of completing the course because I would have expanded my knowledge and skills that would equipped me for other opportunities.
