Gettin Paid and Underage: Intern Life



This is Kerryn White, an intern for the Matty in the Morning Show. Kerryn hopes to one day find a job in either radio or television broadcasting. She's hoping to achieve this goal as soon as possible, with the help of this internship.





This is the intern studio where podcasting, editing and sound research is performed. The interns will spend most of their time in here learning how to properly "run the board" in case they are every needed to help out with any technical aspects of the show. 



This is the entertainment news room. Here, interns can watch the news, search online and riffle through newspapers in this fast paced environment and pull out relevant stories for the broadcast. 




This is the whiteboard where all important, upcoming events are written down. Any concerts, movie openings, sports games or comedy shows must be recorded on this board so the staff is up to date with relevant topics for on-air use. The interns must be well aware of what is going on in locally in Boston as well as nationally. 





This is how the newsroom office looks typically after an entertainment or news report. There will be shuffled papers everywhere, computer screens logged on to websites and newspapers thrown about. The interns must have their game faces on when they enter the newsroom.
