An Amazing Experience Awaits The Chosen Few...

ANN again finds itself in the surprising and exciting position of partnering with the Sun 'n Fun Aerospace Expo in presenting Real-Time Daily news coverage of the first major aviation event in the better part of a year. Yeah... 'exciting' barely describes what we're feeling... along with an intense workload that just won't quit. As a matter of fact, we're conducting THE most extensive news program ever assembled for such an important event -- including the monstrous SnF Innovation Preview. 

And... that's why we're writing this...  

This year’s event is set to be the first major aviation gathering of the year. ANN and SnF's new Digital Daily will be taking on the speedy and mobile capabilities of the best in online media to offer exciting daily news programming via a number of rich media assets, in Real-Time, throughout each day of the long-awaited event. Designed to be the most accessible aviation news event program extant, the Sun ‘n Fun Digital Daily will be easily accessed by cellphone, tablet, or any other connected device.

AND... we will be experimenting with, and introducing, new MOBILE LIVE WEBCASTING capabilities this year, to boot -- THE most aggressive update to any aviation news programming extant. 

One of the more unique and enjoyable aspects of our Special Event coverage is that we've been smart enough to do away with the usual institutional arrogance we see at so many publications... where the Editors think that only they know what you want... whether they really do or not (or worse cover what THEY like... regardless of YOUR interests). We instituted the Aero-Stringer program nearly 3 decades ago to allow promising volunteer writers and photographers, with a true passion for aviation, to come aboard and help us cover the aviation experience through THEIR EYES and keep us in touch with the true rank and file of the aviation world...

We can't think of a more important time to reach out to you all than right now as we try to put aviation back on a firm course toward recovery and progress with the folks from SnF.

So... in addition to bringing some of our best writers, photographers, and videographers; we want to open our ranks to a few select stringers to make sure that we do this right and represent ALL of you to the best of our collective abilities. 

We are inviting one or two talented aviation enthusiast/writers/reporters to join us, as well as one of or two equally talented videographers, to cover the week that we hope will bring the aviation world back to life.

If interested, reach out NOW...

Get your data in NOW if you want to be considered for what promises to be one of our most intriguing and UNIQUE aero-adventures yet (yup... BIG ideas in store for you all, this year). You've seen, for several years, what a great job our stringers, news-spies, and helpers have done at a number of high-profile aviation events. GREAT writers, photographers, and videographers have helped us gather information and wave the flag for us at these shows!

And if you have any previous radio or podcasting skills, all the better. Again; we're especially interested in people with experience in shooting and/or producing video and audio segments. You might be able to join ANN and get an inside view of one of the most exciting events in the aviation world.

If interested, please send samples of your stories and shots, along with a little background, and tell us what your availability will be. You'll be working with the most energetic team in aero-journalism, a group that goes where the stories are and brings 'em back for readers all over planet Earth.

If you have solid video skills, send along a resume, some clips of your work, and a list of the software and equipment that you're comfortable working with.

We work in shifts to cover the most ground, have time to write it all up and to digest the work in an efficient flow.

But... there'll be plenty of fun to go around, as we cover hundreds of vendors and thousands of aircraft, pilots, and builders. What's your specialty -- ultralights, warbirds, racers, tube and rag? Great! You don't have a specialty (just love the whole shooting match like we do, eh?)? Great!

We have plenty of needs, and there's plenty of aircraft and stories to go around. We will be examining a lot of your applications, and the process is workload-dependent, so -- sooner is better!

We are also looking for a high-energy "gopher" for the SNFDD -- someone who can be counted on to run the numerous errands, arrange some meetings, and keep us up to date on whatever we may be missing! Let us know if any of these positions interest you by sending your specs to the email link below.
