I know this was a few days ago, but I thought I should post about the ESPN panel on friday afternoon. If you are interested in working in sports video, you should have gone. It was a great experience. A dozen alums were there including Karl Ravech who for all you baseball fans is kind of the man. There were producers and the guy who makes the awesome graphics for sportscenter. They talked about transitioning to 3D and trying to stay on top of the business. It was really cool. Also, Park Aud was completely packed. Standing room only. Crazy.
I am glad you mentioned it. This and many other events, speakers and activities at IC and Cornell won't be available to you later on when you graduate, so please take advantage of them.
ReplyDeleteNot only do they further your education, are fun and informative, but they extend your professional network.
And not only attend, participate, ask interesting questions, approach the speakers or panelists afterwards, ask them about possible internships (stroke their egos!:-) get their business cards! and if you are in their town pay them a visit, after all they visited your home, IC.
