About Picture This Post and WHAT YOU WILL DO

Picture This Post magazine, www.picturethispost.com, alerts time-strapped readers to cultural offerings that are the best match for their interests in art, books, dance, film, museums, music, theater, as well as travel with a focus on culture. We not only cover culture creators and venues with high name recognition, but also delight in helping to showcase bold, creative strokes by fledgling artists in all genres.

Before applying, please study articles in every section of the magazine. (Click a Picture to READ a story.). And, please study Picture This Post social media pages in Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Instagram.

As SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER, you will --

-use Picture This Post’s social media automation to create posts about every new review, interview, photojournalist reports and select previews and/or picture previews or roundups of such

-use Messenger and similar to share posts with cast/creative teams and other notables showcased in coverage. (Note: the lion’s share of your time will be devoted to this responsibility.)

-ensure Picture This Post “likes”, “follows” and in other ways promotes the organizations that the magazine covers

-identify appropriate social media groups to engage with and how—prioritizing networking to identify writers with expertise in Picture This Post content areas (e.g. composers, musicians, actors, directors, etc.)

More Details on Your Internship:

Amy Munice, Editor in Chief, will be the primary supervisor of your internship. She is the co-publisher of the magazine, a 30+ year PR professional and freelance journalist, and cultural reporter who has penned many hundreds of articles. She will be the author of your future reference for job hunting purposes.

You will be responsible for submitting a weekly report to the editor-in-chief on your hours/tasks done and work in progress, as well as keep a cumulative report on your published articles, and other accomplishments such as layout for others’ articles. 

Training sessions are held by zoom—usually in small groups—throughout the week and weekend. Initially you will need to adapt your schedule in order to attend training sessions to learn layout, confer on rewrites/instruction, and more. Once you have the prerequisite skills, you determine your schedule each week in order to meet your school’s hour requirements for your internship.

ALL UNPAID– ALL REMOTE WORKERS:

Picture This Post is an entirely volunteer organization, from top to bottom. We are a not-for-profit (as opposed to a 501c3 non-profit) – too small to hire accountants etc. needed for non-profit status. Students are like all volunteers EXCEPT that much time/energy goes into training students and helping you develop a portfolio for future job hunting.  

This position is an excellent opportunity for anyone interested in learning how to conduct a social marketing campaign and to also gain insight on how an online magazine works.
