Profile Article...

I’m really looking forward to an interview I will be conducting over the weekend for my profile story. The article will feature the lead singer of a local band. Normally I would conduct interviews in person, but this time I wanted to try a different approach and talk to him over the phone. That is unless he has a performance coming up, which of course I’ll swing by to take photos. With photos I’ll have more to offer to magazines besides an article. Luckily there are plenty of magazines related to music that I can choose from.
Quite possibly, with permission, I’ll stop by his job and take photos of him there if he is not performing anytime soon.

At first it was sort of difficult to find someone to profile. I wanted to profile someone who stood out. I was able to find him through my sister who happens to work alongside him at a retail/music store.

My previous article was a lot of fun. I wrote about a sculptor who lives in Sacramento. He is very gifted and his work is outstanding. It was such an honor to do a story on him since I consider him to be a modern day Leonardo DaVinci. Unfortunately I haven’t found anyone to publish this story, but I will continue to send out query letters to other magazines besides the three we are required to do. I feel it is my priority to have this article published because he is an artist no one should overlook.

On another note, I’m looking forward to the next issue of Sac State Magazine. The editor had asked me to help her with obtaining quotes and so I did. It’s quite possible that my name will be published due to the assistance provided. It will be absolutely exciting to see my name printed in a magazine. Although it’s not a major magazine, it’s certainly a start!
