Interviews

The Plight of the Unpaid Photo Intern (Continues).

| More

Who here was ever an unpaid intern for a photographer? OH, all of us?! Well, then we know it can be pretty awful (unless you’re working for Andy French).

A buddy of mine, Sophia, just finished her first, fabulous unpaid gig for a undeserving individual. She did not enjoy the job.

Let’s help Sophia get at least something out of this; watch her video and vote for her so she can win $500 to Macy’s for telling her worst work/intern experience.

Oh, and feel free to tell us here about YOUR worst experience. I bet there are some doozies.

PS THIS WAS NOT ANNIE LEIBOVITZ.

  3. “A’s” behavior shows that the world of internships is populated with exploiters. One should have to demonstrate certain standards before being able to use unpaid interns.

  6. Tickling someones feet is hardly something to be bitter about. If you feel you are worth more/above such abuse and menial work then go out and make something of yourself. If the employer is that terrible, leave, it’s not as though you will be without a paycheck next week.

    The unpaid internship shouldn’t exist, but it does because individuals like “alex” are willing to partake.
