Today was my first day working at the easter show. It was AFL day, and it was a big success. Today I was supporting the new AFL team Greater Western Sydney Giants. Today involved handing out information sheets on the Giants such as who they were, where they were from, when they were going to begin to start playing etc. We also handed out things such as autograph cards, and freebies such as little tattoos, little footballs, and waterbottles.
No equipment from the entertainment industry was used today, it was pretty much pen and paper and handing out freebies. My main role in the day was to sign people up the support the Giants, and inform people that Israel Fulale would be arriving in the afternoon, so they should come over and grab an autograph etc. Today I really got a feel for enterntainment in sports and leisure. It was a great opportunity for me to work on my communciational skills, talking to people, and convincing them to sign up etc. Because i already have a high standard of comunicational skills, this helped me during the day, and consequently i got lots of people to sign up, it was a bonus! On top of all this the people that I was working for were great, they were really nice and friendly, as well as the people I was working with. I meet some great people and made new friends, it was a great experience!
