Writer in a Mediaperson's shoes.



Oh, I still blog?

Not really.
I have taken on this mysteriously new non-writing adventure called Media. With this mysteriously new take on advertising.
I don’t know where my education has brought me to at this point. I feel like we didn’t get much of it on the different positions there are in advertising. But here I am.

I started at Mediacom on June 7, 2010. Totally unclear of what to expect, I dove right into the world of digital media planning and buying. My account is Volkswagen, which is cool. I never really worked on any car brands before so I figured this would be freshly packed.
With my years of experience with the Adobe suite, I kind of had no idea that in my life I would have to put SO much emphasis on the simple and underappreciated Office 2007. If I don’t walk away with anything on this internship, I will walk away with the skills of excel, yay.

I suppose I should start to write more about my experiences and life. I’m learning a lot about advertising, and the way it works, and about office environments. I think that it will all be interesting subjects for the summer of 2010.

Stay tuned.
