Interesting Job Position

Since I don’t have a degree and just have my portfolio, I tried a find a job that did not require a degree to use for a job position that fascinates me. I have previously applied for an internship with Lucasfilm so when I saw this assignment it reminded me of when I applied. Since that was an internship and not graphic design related I used the same Disney careers listings to look for graphic design positions and found this part time one in North Carolina for an ABC weather channel. When I read the requirements it asked for experience in adobe after effects, photoshop, and illustrator, and having experience in 2 or the 3 it was really exciting, I wouldn’t consider this the most glamorous job when it comes to graphic design but the fact that it did not seem impossible to obtain was really exciting and got my attention.
Part of what drew me is the Disney-related experience this would provide. Graphic design in film was orignally what made me love the field and is where I would love to have a career, and I think what really inspired that was when I was kid and got fascinated by Star Wars. So working at LucasFilm would be kind of a dream come true, and now that Disney owns them even a smaller job like this can still go a long way when trying to get the companies attention.
