What have I been up to lately?
Posted by erin at November 10, 2003 11:14 AMOn Friday I had a fake interview for a fake job at Cartoon Pizza. This is thanks to a one MP, who, gave me the internship on KND. C.P. may have some freelance work for me to do on a children’s book they are working on, as well as a show based on the books that they are pitching to Noggin.
However, there may be no job, or work there at all, so I am not getting my hopes up.
That said, the C.P. offices are located within the Seaseme Workshop headquarters, so the offices themselves were really neat. The lobby had a life-sized Oscar the Grouch in it, and some other muppets, and pictures of muppets, and big, colorful furniture and a ridiculous carpet. Back among the cubicles things were a little more normal, but the color scheme was still great, as the wallpaper had giant stripes which I cannot do justice to here. There was a little sign outside one office door labeling it “Global Thingy Headquarters” (it really said “thingy!”).
The conference room we sat in for the interview had butcher-paper that could be rolled out over the table for brainstorming sessions, and each chair had a little idea-lightbulb drawn on the back.
Oh, how I’d love to work there!
ISO was a big data corporation, so everything about it was boring and sterile. The C.P. offices were the exact opposite, as the whole place screamed something about creativity and fun.
It was super-nice of MP to recommend me, and I hope that someday I can work there. They have my resume and reel, anyway.

if you worked at the Sesame Workshop, you could steal all those Muppets that N. needs for his Reservoir Muppets movie! and then he could make it and it would be awesome!
