This week at my internship, I actually had an agenda and a list of work that needed to be done, which was helpful for me since I usually am goal-oriented. I met my other supervisor, Victoria, and instead of feeling anxious walking into the building like last week, I actually felt comfortable and ready to tackle on whatever was needed of me this particular day.

Instead of color changing jackets, I ended up color correcting/editing swimwear bottoms on Photoshop for just about the entire day. I have surprisingly gotten really skillful at color correcting even though I only just learned it a week ago and Photoshop is not the program I typically use. I also did a little bit more ‘weaving’ and overall, it was another generally relaxed and calm day.

Something I noticed though was the amount of collaboration that circulated throughout the entire company. Everyone within the creative team was constantly asking each other for opinions and communication was a great deal amongst them. Not only that but even though they produce the creative side of things, they also work equally with the other parts of the company as well. Group projects are emphasized to a certain point at Stetson but I was really able to see more of this while at Rox Volleyball this week. Collaboration is more than just working on a project together; it can be anything from getting others opinions, to clarifying on what is needed/wanted, to even just asking how someone does a particular thing. Their collaboration is what makes their entire team so successful and it helped me realize that group projects/collaborating is not as dreadful as it has always seemed.
