A colleague of mine picked this image from The Mural Project as his favorite. It strikes me as slightly naughty -- in a fun way. It occurs to me that an art critic might have a more intellectual interpretation.Any art critics out there?

Interns!
I've been thinking about interns (no, not that way!) and I've come to the conclusion that the best use I have is in research. I'm thinking about a full backgrounder on Adams, Ickes, the project itself and the individual images in the current display.
So, to apply for the gig, I'll need the usual resume and transcript, plus a statement of intention -- and why working for free (or at least screen credit) on a short documentary seems like a good idea to you.

Interns?
We're shopping for interns at my day job. That's just what a filmmaker needs, isn't it? Agreed.

"Established multi-media professional seeks interns for documentary short on Ansel Adams' The Mural Project. Serious self-starters with capability for research beyond Wikipedia and into actual dead-tree texts (books, periodicals, academic journals, etc.). Unpaid (of course); but credit will be given, as appropriate, in the production's credit roll."My first gig after the military was an internship during grad school, so I have a certain sympathy for the interning life. On the other hand, I would expect a certain professionalism, as well.

Interior Video on Ansel Adams' The Mural Project
It's a late Sunday night and I've been relaxing with a Harry Potter movie. My son is finally into the book series and so I'm previewing the movies. We have a rule about not watching movies before reading the books, so I'm sure the movie is next on his list of things to do.
Anyway, I thought tonight would be as good as any night to share a YouTube video produced at Interior about The Mural Project. Happy viewing.
