SMPA Summer Spotlight 🌟 Journalism and Mass Communication student Danny Monk has been spending his summer as a Studio Production intern at a local TV station in Westchester County, New York, called LMC Media. Hear from Danny as he shares some key takeaways from his internship so far ⤵️
“Because of the solid foundation that SMPA gave me during my freshman and sophomore years, I was able to secure a studio production internship at LMC Media, which is located in Westchester County, New York (a suburb that is 20 miles outside of New York City). LMC is a non profit corporation, who prides themselves in showcasing events that support community building through the use of digital media. At LMC, I have the freedom to produce, direct and edit my own video projects, interview potential local community organizers (both in person and on Zoom) and meet regularly with executive members of the LMC Media team. Through them, I have been given invaluable advice and tips about what it takes to be a successful broadcaster/videographer. My summer internship is helping me grow and gives me the opportunity to experience real world situations first hand, outside of the classroom. It’s preparing me for a successful career in media and I am ready for all of it!”
