My entire day was spent staring into the computer screen, following the familiar process of right click save, double-click downloaded video, watch, send to Trash or move to Mogulween Contest folder. Rinse, repeat times 100, easily. Some videos were really good, showcasing some skill among the pool. Some were very forgettable and cliche. Not much else to say regarding this since it's something I've been talking about for a couple weeks now. Grace was sick today so the break in the monotony that is shooting Beyond The Trailer didn't even happen. Once the contest is over, my work may branch off to other things but for now...
Worth noting, I'm NOT complaining. If this is my job, then I will do it to the best of my abilities.
The largest breach from the usual submission watching and YouTube account managing was when I was trying out the new tricks in Final Cut I learned from Erik on Friday. Motion blurs, image screens, fun key framing. For a first time, it my dummy titles didn't come out so bad, but the effects weren't rocket science either. Definitely good tricks to know and I'm glad I had a chance to test them out. My title graphics shall never be the same...

Statement of Mission
What makes communicating over the Internet different than through Television? Film? Radio? What makes it unique? Whatever it is, clearly it's working! Next New Networks is thriving off of the medium of five minutes or less Internet videos and I've been taken along for the ride. With the label of Production Intern, I plan on learning these things, in addition to learning about myself. How can I communicate better? What can this heavy exposure to the industry do for my final year of education at Hofstra U? Will I thrive or fail miserably in gaining a top-notch level of confidence and experience that will catapult me to the top of the my game the second I wrap my tired fingers around my diploma? Only time will tell...
