My Imagination Internship
6 Jan 2010
by admin
As an editorial intern at Imagination, my skills are put to the test each and every day with a wide variety of writing assignments. Whether it’s writing stories for nationally published material for some of our clients or simple blog posts or tweets, each time I walk through the doors of this place, there’s something new and different on my plate.
My Internship Experience
You all know the theory that interns at some companies don’t truly get a ‘hands-on’ or a resume building experience, right? That couldn’t be farther from the truth at Imagination. My experiences have already led me to include Imagination on my resume as well as have the ability to show future employers the work I was doing here through my clips.
I have a friend who interned over the summer for a newspaper publication. He had one piece of work to show for it at the end of the program. I had one piece of work to show within the first two weeks of my internship at Imagination. Although I’m a journalism person at heart, my writing here has not only helped Imagination, but it furthered the knowledge I need to succeed in any writing industry.
The Imagination Difference
It truly is a great place to work and if you are even remotely thinking of entering in the field of custom media publishing, give Imagination a chance. I’m extremely thankful for the experience I’ve gotten here thus far and only look forward to the new projects that are in store for me.
To get a better idea of how the internship is from someone besides me, watch our video on the program. We, as interns, put it together to give all those interested a better idea of what work we actually do here and what kind of place Imagination is. After watching, feel free to apply, you may find it as rewarding as I did…

Need practical advice about running a small business? “Business Insight Series” is an extensive video library Imagination created for Wells Fargo Small Business. It’s yet another example of a financial services company using custom media to reach its target audience.
The Business Insight Series contains more than 60 videos providing advice and expertise to Wells Fargo small business customers. Some of the videos are one-on-one episodes with an interviewer and a small business expert; others are case studies/profiles of Wells Fargo customers who share their success stories. The library also includes short clips from the longer 40-minute webcasts Imagination produces for Wells Fargo.
The “Business Insight Series” video library is a unique offering Wells Fargo provides to customers — a valuable resource for small business owners.
Obama To Use YouTube
14 Nov 2008

Following up on my post from yesterday about Obama and web video, the Associated Press is reporting that Obama will release on YouTube a video of his weekly radio address.
The HDYC? blog has powers we didn’t know it had, clearly.
Web Video At The Top
13 Nov 2008
by Joel Witmer
A thoughtful post on how President-elect Barack Obama should use web video and multimedia while in office. Some of the ideas are rather obvious — instead of a weekly radio address record the thing and release a video (or do both!) — but a few of the ideas have some real meat to them, like making the national budget a multimedia document available to all:
The president’s budget should become a multimedia document that makes the numbers – and the policy questions – accessible to the average citizen. The budget should be released online – not just as a pdf, as it is now, but as a multimedia, dynamic document with web apps, widgets, and appendices applying Quicken-style functionalities, dynamic charts, etc. That way Americans can visualize and understand where their $3 trillion in tax dollars (minus the $1 trillion deficit) goes to…
The American people have been bystanders to the annual budget debates because the federal budget is so inaccessible. Digitize the budget and you democratize it, get the public involved – and get better policy results.
A lot of the ideas in the post are portable to any organization or company interested in engaging its customers by taking advantage of 21st century technology.

Flip Killer?
22 Oct 2008
by Michelle O'Hagan
After reading Joel’s earlier post about the lack of a battery meter on Flip video cameras, I came across this information about the new KODAK Zi6 Pocket Video Camera.
Records in HD. Expandable memory. Rechargable batteries and charger included. And a battery meter.
All for the low, low price of $180.
