At the Warner Brothers Records office in New York this summer, Coduto wrote press releases for the eight bands that she worked with. Her job involved getting newspapers, magazines and television stations to cover the bands and artists that she worked for when they come into town.

鈥淚 feel like I鈥檓 getting a well-rounded label experience through these opportunities,鈥 Coduto said. 鈥淚 love that I can come away from my time here and say I know more than just writing press releases. There鈥檚 a depth and a breadth to what I鈥檓 doing.鈥

Payton Wang, Coduto鈥檚 supervisor at Warner Brothers Records, said that Coduto successfully integrated into the Warner Brother鈥檚 Music Group this summer through her experience at the company.

鈥淚nterning is important because it gives students the opportunity to see an industry and occupation beyond what can be explained in a classroom,鈥 Wang said. 鈥淪ummer internships specifically give students the chance to spend concentrated time in a work environment similar to what they hope to do post graduation.鈥

experience for life

Coduto said that overall her experience has been great and incredibly positive. She also credits her success to her education at 麻豆影院 State.

鈥淢y 麻豆影院 State experience has been one of the best experiences of my life,鈥 she said. 鈥淚鈥檝e taken every advantage 麻豆影院 State has offered, and I am so glad I did. I love telling people I know in New York about my school. I almost always end up rubbing it in a little.鈥

While working at her internship, Coduto was also planning ahead for the future. She will graduate with an electronic media degree in May 2013 and will continue to work on her master鈥檚 in media management.

鈥淚 definitely enjoy publicity and public relations so I鈥檓 hoping that I can begin my background in this field and work my way up into a media management position,鈥 she said. 鈥溾淭he opportunities are just abounding at Warner Brothers, and I keep finding new ones every day.鈥

Warner Brothers Records is owned by Warner Music Group, which boasts a large collection of record labels and a broad roster of artists.
