During my final term in college, I acquired an internship position at Chene Park Ampitheater in Downtown Detroit with the Right Productions as their Content Management Intern.
Chene Park is one of the crown jewels of Metro Detroit and facilitates weekly events throughout the summer featuring local as well as national recording artists from several different genres of music.
During that time I got my very first experience working with Content Management Systems (WordPress to be exact).
It was my responsibility to update the home page with the coming events as well as the event schedule if and when things changed. I also had the privilage of designing some invites and concession menus.
The main perk was all the wonderful artist that I had the opportunity to take pictures of:
I also had the privilage of working with one of the very best promotion/production staffs in the nation which included Mrs. Shahida Mausi, Nannette Wheatley, Sulaiman Mausi, Nina Payne, Rashid Mausi, Piper Carter (who is also a professional photographer), Malik Mausi, Dana Cleveland, Sundiata "OM" Mausi, Ken "Blanks" Harrell as well as so many others that contribute so much to the daily opperations of Chene Park. It was truly a wonderful experience that I will cherish and hold dear for years to come.
Special thanks goes out to Paula Anderanin, who was instrumental in my being there. Your contribution to my success at Chene Park was not in vain; as well as Monica Morgan who I always love to watch in her element. You inspire me to be a better photographer.
I also did some work on The Right Productions website which will be accessible shortly. I will definitely be giving a "heads- up" as to when it is available to view online.
