assist</title></head><body>
<div>The News Office is looking for a temporary production/editorial
assistant for the fall (one to four months) to start immediately. We
need someone skilled and fast in page-layout (InDesign or Quark) and
Photoshop to assist with the production of Tech Talk, an 8-page weekly
newspaper. Graphic design experience is not necessary, but a creative
eye is helpful. (By fast, we mean able to layout four or more tabloid
pages in a day.)</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>We use Apple computers and do the newspaper layout in InDesign,
but good experience with Quark would translate. Photoshop exp. with
B&W and color essential. Must be amenable to supervision by the
editor, who has final say on the layout, and work with good humor in a
deadline situation. Proofreading skills are helpful.</div>
<div><font face="Lucida Grande" color="#000000"><br></font></div>
<div><font face="Lucida Grande" color="#000000">Production begins on
Fridays, is busy on Mondays and most intense on Tuesdays when the
paper is completed and sent to the the printer around 6 or 7 pm and
occasionally later. Staying to the end would be required on Tuesday
evenings to deal with any issues from the printer. We would need the
person to work Fridays, Mondays and Tuesdays most weeks (see
production schedule
http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/techtalk-info.html</font>) and possibly
Wednesdays and Thursday initially for training.</div>
