Just saw an announcement for the 013 Portfolio review.

If you are about to graduate from college, or from a masters program in lighting, and you think you want to be a professional lighting designer, you should apply for this.

Best case - you get a paid internship in NYC working with various real world lighting designers.

Second base case - you meet a real world lighting designer that is looking for an assistant.

Worst case - you get to network with a large number of real world designers, and you get to meet other graduating designers.

I just received an email about this today and figure that this should be good as a last minute reminder for any who were planning on it.
