I generate data for different online retailers to sell comics digitally and I manage the master digital release slate.
On a typical day I generate metadata for online retailers such as Apple, Comixology, Google, and Barnes & Noble to allow our comics to be sold digitally. I choose which archive periodicals will be released digitally based on upcoming DC movies, films & video games coming out. I also maintain order of our master digital release slate.
Here's the first step for college students
I recommend trying to find paid or unpaid PA (Production Assistant) work and meet as many people in the industry as you can. Whether it's classmates you have now or people you will meet on set, the more contacts you make means the more possibilities that could lead you to your next production job. Be kind, genuine and work hard & people will notice who will want to keep you around. Try searching entertainmentcareers.net as a first step.
"The only discouragement I ever had was after graduating college while working as manager at a grocery store. The head store manager told me I was making a bad decision for pursuing the entertainment business because there were too many uncertainties."
I’ve always loved Batman so the thought of us being co-workers was a dream come true. Being a part of a company that tells great stories has always been a huge goal for me. I want to be proud of where I work.
I see myself staying with DC Entertainment for good. I love the company and they treat me well. I would love to eventually move more into the film/tv side of the company, but have no problem staying involved with comics.
