(((Graphic Design Wizards and Wizresses)))

Posted by Scrappers on Thu, Feb 12, 2009 at 2:25 PM

The Mercury has an open stool at the foot of the production throne.
Call it an internship opportunity, a foot in the door or a cry for help.
We're just calling it a production internship.

What will you learn?
-How to magically produce a weekly newspaper.
-How to magically turn words into pictures.
-How to magically kern and flow text.
-How to magically layout pages and route them with awesome power and courage.
Other bonuses include: free coffee, a fancy computer, a desk (chair not included) and the chance to change the world (well, at least change your resume).

Enhance your graphic design powers today and tomorrow will be your today!!!

(not actually back from saccatical). Am I the only one that's noticed that the Merc seems to be moving towards a business plan that involves not paying a single member of their production crew???

A cat: You are just jealous because they eliminated the paid troll position.

Gawd it's tempting. It's the kind of thing I've always wanted to do.

Sad about the not-being-paid part tho.

I could do this job no problem. But I'd need to do it after 5pm and on the weekends.
