Thank you for such an amazing journey during this internship. It has been so wonderful to learn about television distribution and the way in which shows are acquired by stations, how social media and SEO helps promote materials, how to use AI to make workflows quicker, and so many various terms. The skills I built over this time include furthering my capabilities with using Adobe Audition, Optimizing the organization of Google folders and Sheets, and Continuing to expand my knowledge on PRX and its various uses as an auditory platform. I can’t believe that this internship started just a few months ago, when we were relating over our broken leg/feet injuries. Thank you again.
