It sounds ironic to take a creative break from creative work, but it is not an uncommon occurrence at Crossmedia in Philadelphia. One day this semester, I was asked by the team at Crossmedia if I wanted to watch Law and Order with them. I thought it was some sort…

  When I was first hired at Lunchbox Communications I expected to perform the typical duties of a copywriter/social media intern. However, I knew that because it’s such a small team, I’d probably have to perform other tasks as well. What I didn’t know was that I would end up…

My internship this semester was overall a huge learning experience. Not only did I learn about the work I was doing and the industry I was working in, but I was learning how to be a fully functioning, working adult. That was probably the hardest lesson for me. I’m not…

Hello there! My name is Set and I am currently interning at the Office of the City Representative (OCR). Sounds kind of unfamiliar in the advertising realm, doesn’t it? And yes, I am not working for an advertising agency but a government-based office. It may seem unrelated to my major…

It was a cold and windy day to start off the Philadelphia Marathon 2015. I remember that day clearly as I was basically frozen from walking around on-site to help out with media tasks. Arriving as early at 5 am to help the team to prep, I felt a ‘burdened’…

So what do I mean by the greatest experience? Remember the days when your mom, dad, teachers and friends are always telling you to stop procrastinating and plan ahead of time? Well, here’s the thing. No matter how much, how long, or how well you plan things, it’s always going…

While working within the marketing department of Fox 29 I was fortunate enough to work with them on a campaign pitch with bike rental company INDEGO. During this time I was asked to film short vignettes interviewing Indego users asking where they were “Indiegoing”, a term the team at fox…
