I signed on to co-produce a series of comedic shorts being produced by Darko Entertainment (Donnie Darko, Southland Tales) and distributed on the web via 60 Frames (60frames.com). Next thing you know we got the go-ahead from the powers that be to shoot the weekend of Dec. 7-9. Two weeks away, I know, but it is a passion project and we are stoked to even have the miniscule budget we do.

The shorts are low budget and we are seeking one or two interns to assist as PAs (very low pay, meals & transport) on our shoots. The shoots are going to be in Orange County, NY (about an hour north of Manhattan)

If you are aware of anyone who may be interested in filling any of these positions, would you please forward them my email address? The total production should take about 40-60 hours.

Thank you so much for your help,

We are located in Buckhannon, W.Va., 2 1/2 hours from JMU. We are not far from great ski resorts and hiking if you love the outdoors. Although Buckhannon is a small town, we are close to bigger cities.

Hello everyone!

I have an absolutely amazing opportunity for current SMAD majors or alum who are hanging out in the DC area for the summer to make some great money and add to their portfolio.

The company which I do marketing for is a high-end catering company and event space in downtown Washington, DC. We have just decided (meaning today) to revamp our website which was designed over six years ago. And I thought, who would be better to do this job than a SMAD student/alum?

I am looking for someone who is proficient with all the technical aspects of Flash who could work with me to make our website a little edgy, innovative and all-around phenomenal.

This is great for someone who has the summer off in between classes, is taking a break after graduation while job hunting, or even already has a job but would like to earn some cash on the side. Most of the work for the website can be done from home.

Also, compensation is negotiable and very competitive.
If interested, please call or forward a copy of you resume and links to any previous work to the address below.

From SMAD Alumnus Kevin Barnhill

Hey SMADIes, I have a job lead here at NGC and wanted to pass it along to you folks. The position is an entry level engineering job. It's basically helping to set up networks, installing VTR machines, working on our encoding equipment and helping to install a tapeless library. It's all very technical and not creative in the least. However, I will say that a lot of the editors and staff members we have here started out in similar positions. I started out as a Network Operations assistant and worked my way in to editing. They are looking for someone who wants to get their feet wet in the business and can groom to be in our Post Production environment. The job is not glamorous and will not have any benefits. I expect the salary to be in line with most entry level positions though and NGC does pay well. Please get in touch ASAP via my NGC email at kevin.barnhill@natgeochannel.com. Also give me a shout if you live in the DC/NOVA area and want to get a beer or go to a game sometime. Good luck all, I hope everyone is doing well!

If you know a fair amount of Flash, don’t have a summer job yet, and like to work independently from home, this project is for you.

OnCall Learning Systems creates interactive computer-based training used in the clinical setting. In other words, we teach doctors, nurses and ancillary hospital staff how to enter orders and document patient care online. The development platform we have used for the past ten years is being discontinued and we are migrating to Flash. We need a Flash programmer to create new buttons and templates that mirror our training style and then teach us how to use them.

We are not looking for complicated Flash animations, but rather for interactivity. We plan to use the Slide Presentation feature of Flash 8 for the new tutorials. For examples of tutorials created in our current platform, visit www.oncalllearning.com.

This is a contractor position, paid by the hour when you are onsite at our Charlottesville facility and paid by the object or project when you work from home. The successful applicant may continue with project work during the school year if desired.

From SMAD Alumna Shelby Giles

I just thought I'd send a little update for the new year. I relocated to Alexandria, VA from Richmond about seven months ago. The area has been great to me thus far. I've been working on music and modeling while working in D.C. as a Graphic Design Specialist for the Corporate Executive Board (CEB). We are actually looking for a few good designers, both web print, to join our team. If you would like information about these positions, please e-mail me at shelbygiles@gmail.com. I would be happy to refer you and tell you more about the company. Happy 2007!
