Summer Break: I'm back from nowhere

Clareesa candidly informed me today that I haven't posted in ages. Now that I've almost recovered from an intense quarter of school, I'm back!

This quarter I did an internship at Compel Media, where I did various things ranging from logging footage for television shows, fixing up Youtube videos, to cleaning up audio, rough-cutting commercials and going out on production as the B-camera.

One video I did most of the editing on is a Tractor Safety video for SAIF corporation. Not the most epic subject in the world, but I had fun with it.


Creating the Spanish version was more of a challenge, mainly because yo no hablo Espanol...


Later on in the quarter, I got to do a bunch of work on an instructional video for Marion County Public Works:


Classes were totally different this quarter, mainly in that we didn't get to do any actual video recording! All the video students were disappointed, but we learned a lot about important [and boring] paperwork necessary for great and profitable video work. We also had a painful web design class (I, and several others, knew nothing about HTML and CSS prior to class), but I'll post about that later.
