~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Breanna Smith~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hear the sounds of people working at computers and the frustrated sighs that go along with them. This is the inside of the Tiger Beat magazine building and where it all happens. I am the head designer here at Tiger Beat and am here first as always. Everyone else seems so incompetent these days to even show up on time. My name is Breanna, but most call me Bre.
Today I get the amazing opportunity of doing a photo shoot for Connect Three. Oh joy. *Note the sarcasm.* It's not that I don't like them because I do, I really do. It's just I don't know how I am going to be able to keep myself from screaming when they come in. You see I don't just like them, I love them I am a huge fan. One like you wouldn't be able to believe.
If that's not bad enough I am the designer, not that that's bad it's just I don't do photos. The last time I actually took pictures and I mean real ones, not like the ones you take of your friends when your hanging out for fun but real ones, was my senior year in college and that was two years ago. My capabilities as a photographer now pretty much suck.
I do the occasional writing because I can do that, but pictures not so much. Which is why I am even more worried about this and nervous as all get out. First off to start the day I need to get some spreads designed since the Jo Bros don't come in until 1:00 pm. So I have some time to kill before they get here. My boss is the one who stuck me with this job anyway of doing the photo shoot. Her name is Emily and I love her to death because we've been best friends even before she became my boss, but sometimes she thinks I can do anything and honestly she's living in a fantasy world if she thinks that is the case because honestly I can hardly do anything at all. I really wonder sometimes if it was the fact that I was that capable in my job to get the job as head designer or if it's just because Em and I are best friends.
"Bre! I need some help over here, nothing's working! I hate this it's so frustrating!" Ok I may have lied a little there are some people here, but not many. Anyway Sarah's calling me I better get over there she sounds like she really needs some help right now and as the dutiful friend I'm going to go over there and see what I can do.
"What seems to be the problem over here?" Man, she looks awful it looks like she's been here all night trying to figure this out. No wonder she sounded so desperate when she called me over here.
"I'm trying to place the background on the spread and the pictures in the photo boxes on the spread, but it's not working and I can't figure out why." She sure sounds frustrated.
"Let's see here. Oh I know just change the resolution on the pictures and the background to 300 and you'll be good to go." So I can do some things and solve some problems, but not many.
"Thanks a ton. I have been working on this all morning and I just couldn't get it to work. I sure owe you one, you saved my life." "It was no problem and it really wasn't that big of a deal, it's easy if you know what you're doing." I smile at her I sure hope she doesn't take that the wrong way.
"That's why I'm the newbie and you are the head designer, I don't understand any of this crap. I don't get why Emily just won't make me a writer, I'm really great with that and would be much more efficient with that then designing. You maybe good with this stuff, but honestly I suck. I just don't get this stuff."
"Well you know Emily she has her reasons for everything. Maybe she just wants you to prove yourself before she lets you do what she knows you're capable of doing. I mean she's making me do a photo shoot today. I know me pictures. That sure doesn't make for a very good combination."
"Are you kidding me you are amazing with a camera. I saw you in college you take awesome pictures." Why does everyone seem to think that but me? Maybe I am too critical of myself. But I can't worry about that now I have to go prepare for that photo shoot, I mean in starts in…*looks at watch* Oh crap in fifteen minutes that doesn't give me a lot of time to get everything set up oh crap, oh crap, oh crap.
(10 minutes later) *Connect Three walk in asking for a Breanna Smith. The receptionist tells them to hold on. *She pages Breanna and tells her who is at the front desk.*
"Connect Three are here for their photo shoot Bre."
"Alright I'll be right up there." It's a good thing it didn't take me long to get set up because they are fifteen minutes early!
"She'll be up here soon." "Thanks!" Shane says with a big goofy grin on his face.
