\"JasonBoston University is a great school in itself, but as a COM student the education would not be complete without the number of great internships the city of Boston has to offer. Whether you\u2019re studying to become the next Anne Curry, Lizzie Grubman, or Scorsese there is an internship in Boston that is perfect for you. For broadcast journalists we\u2019ve got Channel 5, NECN, NESN, for PR majors there\u2019s Boston Medical Center and CONE Communications, and for Film\/ TV TD Garden, and a number of production companies that are making films through out the year.<\/p>\n

Just last week, I was offered an internship position at WGBH, Boston\u2019s member station of PBS. The opportunity came up on me rather quickly after the documentary that I had been planning to make with my sociology professor was put on hold because of a funding issue. Nevertheless, I\u2019m now excited to say that I\u2019ll be working on the production of a new American Experience Documentary on JFK.<\/p>\n

My first day was Monday and I\u2019m already in awe. I have my own huge cubicle with a brand new IMac, a WGBH email address and phone number extension. The cafeteria has everything from sushi to steak and I\u2019m surrounded by Emmy\u2019s and numerous other awards that American experience has won.<\/p>\n

For the beginning, I\u2019ll be logging all of the stills and video related to JFK that WGBH already has in their database. After that\u2019s all sorted through, we\u2019ll being production and film new interviews, B-roll footage, etc. For now I work there four hours on Mondays and Wednesdays but once the summer starts and production gets into full swing I should be there five days out of. I\u2019m so pumped about this and will definitely keep you guys updated on the happenings for this project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
