I'm an ETV Employee!


Can I get a round of applause anyone? I was selected as an SC ETV Intern this summer! However, I wasn’t chosen as a candidate for “Your Day” in Clemson. I was chosen for “Making it Grow!” which is based out of Sumter, South Carolina and it is conveniently only a thirty minute commute from my hometown of Camden! I found out over Spring Break that I was chosen for the position! I talked to Vic Miller, who is the manager at ETV in Sumter. He is very excited to take me on as a summer intern and I will begin work in late May! My schedule will be 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. most Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. On Tuesdays I won’t go in until 1 p.m., but I will generally work until 9 p.m. The show “Making it Grow” is taped live every Tuesday night and I will get the experience to see them film live! This is an experience that I am so very excited about and I can’t wait to share more with you once I begin! When I talked to Vic he told me that on some Wednesday’s we will be doing field work. We will drive all over South Carolina to obtain footage for upcoming shows!
He said I will get a full range of production experience including assisting in the studio and field productions to including helping with set up, note taking, etc. I am going to get the opportunity to operate cameras and even partake in the taping of live shows! He said I may also have the opportunity to spend some time in the control room operating graphics or answer the phones during live shows.
And here is good news! I am being paid for all of the fun I am going to have! I can’t wait! On another happy note! The weather is beautiful today in Clemson! Sunny and 65! Wish you were here!
