Want to Work in the Skateboarding Industry?

Samantha Chami, has been making skateboard documentaries and creating animation and motion graphics for the past few years for Transworld Skateboarding. She came up with the "Work in Skateboarding" idea and put it up on IndieGoGo.com to raise money for the project. Check it out.


"Work in skateboarding is an educational video website that shows the diversity of jobs in skateboarding, their accessibility and how similar roles can apply to other sport industries.
It’s going to be a resource for kids who are beginning to plan their career paths and are unaware of all the different job options within skateboarding.
The main goal of the website is to invest in the next generation of skateboarding, nurturing their growth and creativity and supplying them with information they can use to become a part of the industry."
