A Long Way From My Back Porch
For the past month and a half I have been working as a Maker Intern at Red Tettemer O’Connell + Partners. Throughout this internship I have had the pleasure of learning the production side of agency life. One of the biggest things I have learned so far from this job has been that Photoshop can only do so much. When it comes to creating high quality work, you have got to be smart about the equipment you choose and decisions you make during the set up and shooting. Editing should be used to enhance an image rather than to create…
Creating Content for the Roots Picnic
I am currently working as a Content Creation Intern for The Mann Center of the Performing Arts. This opportunity has been amazing and has provided me with so many incredible experiences thus far. I have the responsibility of updating the social media accounts for our various concerts on platforms such as Instagram and Tiktok. Some of the events I have attended were the Roots Picnic, Noah Kahan concert, Young the Giant, and Two Friends. One thing I love about working for The Mann Center is that we host a variety of different artists and events. This keeps my job interesting…
Myth vs Reality: Agency Life
Over the past few weeks working as an account management intern at 160/90, I have constantly been in conversation with my roommates, peers, colleagues, professors, parents, you name it about what the reality of working in an agency has been like. And let me tell you it isn’t quite what the myths had made it out to be. I shared a few of these observations with a professor of mine, but I felt that they were worth sharing publicly. Maybe you’re just starting your education in advertising and communications or maybe you’re well into it, but I am certain we…
Content Creating at The Mann
This summer, I have accepted a position as a Content Creation Intern at The Mann Center for the Performing Arts. I have always enjoyed editing and creating videos for my own entertainment, so I was extremely pleased to accept this offer. The Mann Center is a non-profit open-air music center in Fairmount Park, and for majority of my internship, I would be working in the office, which is located on Broad Street in Center City. My internship began on May 23rd, and I was greeted kindly by the Marketing Department on my first day. I have learned many useful skills…
The Flavorful world of The Morris Restaurant’s Internship
Hello everyone, my name is Tiana Bunch; I recently graduated from Temple University with a B.A. in Advertising with a concentration in Copywriting. Today I am excited to share my experience as an intern at the marvelous and historic Morris Restaurant. I have the privilege of learning about the restaurant industry. Combining my passion for writing with the culinary arts taught me that the restaurant business is unpredictable, and things sometimes go differently than planned. I have gained insights into the restaurant industry during my internship at the Morris Restaurant. One of the key lessons was how meetings are conducted…
It’s Not Just An Instagram Post
Over the past month, I have been interning at Red Tettemer O’Connell + Partners, an advertising agency in Philadelphia. The reason I chose to work here is because of their Wake and Make Studio, RTOP’s in-house production studio and team who work tirelessly to create exciting, cultivating media for clients. So far, this internship has been a dream. I have been able to have hands-on experience creating Instagram posts, Reels, and even commercials. The team has been extremely welcoming and has thrown me into every project they can. I thought I knew the ins and outs of advertising agencies because…
A journey of self through professionalism
Hello Owls! As a sophomore advertising student with a concentration in media planning, I spent loads of time looking for an internship that would be meaningful for the career that I desire to pursue. I landed a summer internship at MayoSeitz Media located in Conshohocken, PA. Going into this internship, I feared that I lacked knowledge in this field as I am only a sophomore, but as time goes by I understand that this internship is one massive learning experience and lacking expertise is part of being a student. The people working at this agency are what make it so…
Elevated Blood Pressure & Elevated Work
From the moment I toured the 160/90 office back in December of 2022 I knew I wanted to work in this space one day. The open concept office, the gorgeous city views, and the lively office community entranced me from the minute I walked through the door. Little did I know, I would have the opportunity to work there sooner than I thought. When I found out that 160/90 was offering an account management position for the summer of 2023, I jumped at it immediately. The company culture I had experienced in one day was enough for me to know…
Navigating Work-Life Balance During Your Design Internship
One thing that has become apparent to me over the course of the first five weeks of my internship is how important the work-life balance is there. I’m interning at Ceisler Media & Issue Advocacy this summer as their digital & creative intern. I’m the first person to intern as a part of the digital & creative team here at Ceisler. They’ve always had more general interns that complete a variety of different types of work and tasks but never one on the digital team, so it’s very exciting for me to be the first. Going into this internship, I…

好运 Embracing the Unknown
I recently finished my internship as a marketing assistant at PPUSA. I consider myself fortunate to have had this opportunity to broaden my network, and it caps off my academic career at Temple University perfectly. I learned a lot during my internship at PPUSA. Not only did I learn about marketing strategies and tools, but I also got hands-on experience with cross-departmental collaboration, teamwork, and professional skills. Furthermore, my internship at PPUSA taught me how to work in a multicultural work environment with teams and establish effective communication and cooperation with colleagues and clients. I am grateful for the team…
