- Entered the office and began working on Hungry Nation promos. It wasn't long until the Fast Lane Daily team called for my assistance in the studio. I slated for yet another one of their daily episodes. A higher level of comfort in me must be noted.
- Got back to working on those wonderful promos. Finished one on Alyson after massive tweaks on the previous two.
- At 1:30 PM, Grace, Spencer and myself headed down to the studio to shoot part of a new episode for Grace's show Beyond The Trailer. Every Monday I'm basically the director for these in-house mini-shoots, which, though they simply require me to turn on the lights, monitor the sound, and hit Record, is kind of a small honor so early in the going at Next New. Shooting for that went very well. Grace usually says all her lines in one shot, but this was more broken up so takes were shorter and easier to capture. What's the episode about? Zombies! Pretty cool. I definitely learned something about Hollywood's history with the Undead.
- After BTT, it was back to those damn promos! At the end of the day I had six...I think. Justin seemed happy with them, save the fact they all went over time so I had to flex my editing muscles and whittle footage down as much as possible. In the back of my mind I have this immense fear that I'm doing something wrong and failing Justin and this new network but I have to keep an even keel. How am I to impress people if I don't just do it to the best of my abilities? I will admit though, with the added color correction, the titles at the beginning and the end (in the proper font, mind you), and the main Hungry Nation graphic at the tail, they look pretty legit. Which means they will need another two hours at least of fine-tuning.
I believe that wraps it up for Day Three of my internship. More or less to come.
Oh! And here are links to the last episodes of Beyond The Trailer that I am credited as "DP/ Director" on. Awesome stuff!
