As promised way back on February 1st's entry, an update to the elusive job search for that TV job I know I should be at.
Positions I had bookmarked at Monster.com were already filled, so I turned to current listings. They have one for a news station in Cedar Rapids, IA, that doesn't even require previous experience. Just think what my experience could generate for me from an initial low position; previous experience could prove invaluable! (There's also a job that I saved doing set-up and production in Valley Forge, PA.)
I am also trying to network with others like me through MySpace. I added one of the Fox Sports Net producers as a friend, and finally found long-time associate Alan on MySpace. He's about my best bet right now in trying to master the digital technology that has changed the field since I was last active. I would only hope he'd know that I'm serious on this one.
You can't beat a group of like-minded individuals who want to help the others succeed. That's just part of what my many jobs in the field were like, and one of the main reasons it was so enjoyable to do.
Without being an actual resume:
Accepting one of my four local TV production awards in 1996. Experiences total over 13 years and 3000 hours... waiting to do more!
The Director:
- Kevin Harrison
- Lincoln Park, Michigan, United States
- I have lived in the Downriver (Michigan) area for 33 of my 41 years and have always been a fan of its history: from a blue-collar area to its varied offerings of today. It is my hope that I can help recapture its past and preserve it, in written and visual form, for today and the future.
