> Photographed by Esther McClure media intern
>> “All summer I had been trying to capture the perfect
flip picture from the pool’s diving board. I saw a
picture of one of the SMT boys doing a back flip off
of the trapeze and decided to try to recreate that
shot for the cover. I just stood in the same spot on
the dock for about 30 minutes and caught several
great shots.”
>> “Last summer during training when they
introduced the media interns I remember thinking
‘I wish I had known about that position’. At the
end of summer I started asking about being
a media intern. I applied and got the job. The
funny thing is, I didn’t realize there was an office
specifically for media until this summer.
