Week of 3/30-4/3
This week was more of a week to work on our personal projects. We didn’t have any shoots the whole week, so Mike basically gave us the whole week to work on our own projects. Most days the other two interns and I edited another one of the short comedy sketches we were working on. Throughout this week I noticed that I became a lot more comfortable using Adobe premiere to edit video as well as add all different kinds of effects. Because Mike wanted to see each of our takes on the video he told Aidan and I to both edit our own versions of the video. This was the first time I really had the chance to edit video all by myself and it allowed me to learn many new things. I learned how to transitions between shots, add titles, do color corrections, etc. Having the chance to edit my own version of the video really opened me up to all the possibilities Adobe Premiere gives you. Since this was a fairly quiet and slow week Mike also asked Aidan and I one day to go do some more soliciting for the Perks Program.
The whole week basically consisted of video editing in premiere. At the beginning of the week however the other two interns and I met with the band Four Noble Truths to talk about the music video we are going to create for them and about all the ideas we had for the video itself. In the end we decided to make a video where two degenerates get into a fight with two nerds and during this fight drumsticks or some hard rock CD falls out of one of the nerds back packs and the degenerates and nerds end up bonding together through music and creating a band. Overall this was a fairly laid back and relaxing week dedicated to allowing the other two interns and I to work on our own personal projects.
