My name is Kevin Bean and I currently work in graphic design at a newspaper.
I recently hit a 2 year anniversary there and it hit me that I would be celebrating another year (6 total) that I was not doing something that makes me happy.
I graduated from college in 2010 with a degree in Visual Communications Technology (and kick my self everyday for not switching to journalism). I was apart of BG24News and BGNews the campus news outlets, worked internships at ACB13 and WBGU-PBS, and went on to hold a job at WBGU-PBS and WTOL11 before I graduated.
After graduation I tried to get into any number of stations and heard nothing back. I eventually picked up freelance video work at The Courier in Findlay. That turned into a graphics job with promise of video work on a stable pay check. The paychecks came, but not the video work.
So now here I am 6 years later at 28 and looking for photographer positions....
My end goal is to work production for Nintendo, Wizards of the Coast, SNL, or Riot/Blizzard....
This is not me asking for work, just saying who I am, where I've been, and where I hope to someday be.
