Hello everyone, my name is Connor Zilisch. I am a senior this year, and I am interning at Buffalo Toronto Public Media as a Digital Video Producer. My responsibilities include planning, creating, capturing, and editing digital video content. I am responsible for using video in a story telling manner for a broad audience to understand. I have spent the past week working on short YouTube and Radio advertising spots for upcoming series. Prior to starting the internship, I anticipated more in the the area of filming and recording content. While I have been able to do some of that, the majority of producing is editing and making sure the story is appealing to the audience. I have been settling in really well. I get along really well with my boss. She is very interested in ensuring that I understand every aspect of my role and what comes with it. I’m very excited to see what this internship brings.

It does sound as though you are settling in nicely. What an excellent opportunity to learn more about digital video production!
