I spent four weeks interning for City of Eugene's Library, Rec & Cultural Services Marketing department. I experienced writing in a journalist style, producing social media content, creating graphics & capturing pictures/videos with professional-grade cameras.
Through this internship, I learned many skills, but I am most thankful for how well i was able to get to know the city. With the hustle of being a college student + student-athlete my exploring free time is limited, but i can now confidently say that I know eugene like the back of my hand & i thankful for it!
Graphic Design
I was able to further enhance my graphic design skills during this internship. I communicated what visual needs needed to be met with clients from the Library and Cultural Service branches. Getting a "behind the scenes" look at the necessary communication skills a Graphic Designer needs to be equipped with was insightful.
I designed multiple stickers for the library! My goal was to capture the essence of Eugene in a way that would appeal to both adults and kids. I was also tasked with translating the text and reformatting the design for the Spanish-speaking community here in Eugene.
Photography
One of my favorite takeaways from my internship experience was learning how to operate high-quality camera equipment. Definitely not as easy as it looks, but I am glad I was able to learn
