Freedom Duties

As a Media Relations Intern with the Florence Freedom Professional Baseball Team in Florence, Kentucky, I help with website updates, writing press releases, and updating active rosters. I am also doing some video editing work highlighting the group areas, specialty areas and on-field specialty items.

Days 1 & ...

I began doing work for the Florence Freedom Professional Baseball Team on November 3, 2009. My first task was to edit down videos taken from the 2009 season and make short videos (30-60 seconds) to be used on the Florence Freedom website and possibly, other websites i.e. Youtube. Working 2 days a week for a few hours made this task take a little over a month to complete. Around Christmas, the office took a two week break which allowed me time to finish the videos when I came back in after the new year. The front office staff said it's nice to get that vacation time around Christmas (which they are afforded because of their 90+ hr work weeks during the summer baseball season).
When I returned to the office in 2010, I showed my supervisor Josh the videos and as the broadcaster, he was going to voice over the scripts that I wrote for the videos. Around this time, I began to receive some new assignments which have made things a little more fun to be trying out new things. I started to now feel like a part of the front office and that I had a more major stake in the media relations.
