The Gwinnett Braves, the Triple-A affiliate of the Atlanta Braves, is seeking an intern interested in a career in photojournalism.
The intern will be responsible for photographing game action, on-field entertainment acts, fan & mascot interaction, assorted events held at the ballpark and other activities on or outside of game days as assigned by the team's sponsor services, ticketing and media relations departments. The intern may also be asked to work off a nightly shot list in order to obtain photographs of specific areas of the ballpark, signage or sponsor promotions.
A functional knowledge of baseball is required of all candidates interested in the position. The intern must also provide his or her own photography equipment capable of securing high-resolution images.
The photography internship may be taken for course credit depending on the parameters set forth by the respective student's college or university.
Specific starting, finishing and in-season dates can be negotiated between the team and the candidate, though the bulk of the internship is structured around the International League season, which runs from the second week of April through mid-September.
During the season, hours will vary from week to week in accordance with the team's home schedule and can be flexible to work around the candidate's schedule and availability. Qualified candidates should expect to work an average of 10-20 hours each week in-season.
Interested candidates should contact Nick Margiasso at [email protected]. Applicants should be prepared to present a portfolio and/or samples of their previous work and their college or university's internship parameters and qualifications.
