If you Play It By Ear, you don’t plan ahead but you do whatever seems best at the time depending on the situation.
Work Activities:
Finally, this was the last week of internship. This week we had any kind of work beside the same artists featuring. I’ll share some highlights from the past. From the beginning, I started to work on social media strategies and handling of the magazine. After that I was assigned to create new ideas for the magazine and I was also asked for the research of the content and the articles. Moreover, I was given to sort out the data and create credit stories for the magazine along with the stockists to search fot best galleries and agencies who represent photographers. Not to forget artist featuring was the most difficult and interesting task for the magazine. After the launch we were asked to do work for PR, marketing and promotions of the last edition and now we started from the scratch again for the new edition and we are here now. It all went good. Overall, it was a great learning experience so far.
Reflection:
Internship is finished and all went pretty good with many learning aspects. When I started it was difficult to understand the circle in which the PIBE magazine works and operate. After guidance and and training I was on the lane and my mentor was pretty much happy with me. Many tasks were new because I haven’t work for the magazine before while many tasks were easy for me because I am from the Fashion& Textile Designing background I was familiar with many things which helped me a lot. I received positive and over-whelming feedback and discussed about the future objectives with my mentor.
