Media Requests

If you’re a journalist or a media organisation interested in writing about Is Not Magazine, we’re happy to help with interviews and requests for print resolution images, as long as you let us know in advance. The best way to make sure we receive media requests is to email us, or if you really must use the phone, call +61 3 9654 3873.

If you’re a secondary or tertiary student seeking work experience or an internship, please remember that we’re a very small organisation (five people work on Is Not around our other full-time jobs) and that the actual production of the magazine occupies a relatively small proportion of the work we do. An internship with us is a very strange and unorthodox experience indeed, and possibly not the best way to find out how the print media industry works. However, if our project particularly appeals to you, you can contact us to discuss a possible internship. We’re always happy to provide advice where we can.
