Remote Photo Editor
Software: Adobe PhotoShop, Adobe Illustrator, Excel
Description: (One-year Contract via Aquent.com.) A friend from when I worked at Microsoft previously reached out to me for a position as a remote editor for the Microsoft Trends Shift. The job is one of the photo editors who selects the images that run across the bottom of the home page for Bing.com. I worked regular shifts which included logging in remotely to the Microsoft network and I would get photo requests from the Trends Editor through email or Instant Message. I would go through our resources to find photos that fulfilled the requests, occasionally having to get creative. I would work with the editor to get the right look and feel for the images, generate the captions and headlines and credits. Also, making sure the images blended well together and contrasted with the background image and also had a good mix, both visually and diversity-wise. The traffic for Bing.com was usually more than 200 million views.
