My second week\u00a0turned\u00a0out to be great. First, I established the days and times when I will come in, it\u00a0will be Monday\/Thursday from 12 to 6 pm. On Monday, I finally met Post Producer – Dave, the person I\u00a0am going to\u00a0work closely with during my entire internship.\u00a0He gave me a task to edit a short one-minute teaser for Velocicoaster, the new ride in Universal Studios, and\u00a0then upload it on their\u00a0platform,\u00a0to\u00a0just\u00a0see\u00a0how familiar I am with Premiere Pro and how the process of working with clients goes.\u00a0Dave\u00a0said,\u00a0that\u00a0there is no deadline but it would be great if I finish it by next week.\u00a0I finished the teaser in 3.5 hours and showed it to him, he\u00a0was impressed.\u00a0I finished it\u00a0so\u00a0quickly because I immediately got into the workflow\u00a0and\u00a0the footage was\u00a0so\u00a0easy to work with.\u00a0After that, I uploaded it on their platform, the one that both clients and editors can access, that\u00a0way\u00a0clients can leave comments on the projects, with the timecode and what\u00a0would they\u00a0like to change. I uploaded it so Dave can leave some comments on my video\u00a0and\u00a0I can modify it and make the second version better.\u00a0On\u00a0the same day, Joann – Production\u00a0Coordiantor\u00a0came up to\u00a0me and asked me about my knowledge of the Ukrainian language since some of the editors were working on a documentary about Ukrainian ballet and\u00a0they\u00a0needed help with subtitles.\u00a0I agreed\u00a0to help and\u00a0Joann said\u00a0that she\u00a0would introduce me to the editors on Thursday. That was my Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Thursday, Dennis- Director of Operations introduced me to the two editors who are working on the documentary, Michael and Michelle, who are both senior editors. They needed my help with subtitles. The whole goal was to cut one long subtitle from one shot to different shots but that way that it matches what people are saying in the video. They said that they tried to work with Google Translate but sometimes it would be difficult. My level of Ukranian language is pretty basic, in that way that I would understand it but don’t have enough vocabulary to speak. However, my understanding of it was very helpful. We successfully spent two and a half hours working on subtitles and I would help them with cutting them and sometimes just modifying them, so they would sound better and would make sense. We finished the first part of the documentary and Michael and Michelle said that I was a great help and they will definitely ask for my help for the rest of the part of the documentary. I felt really good after knowing that I was able to help others with my skills and knowledge. It was also very helpful seeing senior editors working on a big project like that, the ways that they work and maybe implement that in my workflow. After that, I met with Dave to see if we could go over his comment on my video and work on it more. However, the computer that they have for me to work on, was taken by IT and Dave said that it would take a while, so I could just go home and be done with my day. Thursday was pretty short but very insightful and exciting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
