Final Cut: Dr. Lua\u2019s Episode<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The big milestone was finishing Lua\u2019s interview. Syncing the external mic track to the camera feed became a frame-by-frame process because of multiple cuts that were made in the video. Every time the sound felt subtly off, but once we aligned it, the whole piece tightened up. We have done the color correction, cut some of it, added the intro with outro, exported it, and called it done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Interfaith Recording<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Friday\u2019s shoot was our smoothest yet. Dr. Lua hosted a conversation with Imam Rasheed, Rabbi Kay, and Dr. Hunter about faith, identity, and common ground. We double-checked mic levels, but one microphone turned off halfway through; we paused, re-asked the lost questions, and will put them accurately into the edit. Unfortunate, but fixable – and proof that we\u2019re finally calm when the equipment misbehaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n Release Forms<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Before we finish the internship, we need signed waivers from every student guest. I put the release text into a Google Doc, filled it with names, and the speaker\u2019s emails. Lua is handling the big names (Daryl, Jeff, Marc, Alan), while I\u2019m tracking down everyone else. A little admin work now prevents legal issues later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Uploading material<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n On Friday, I spent time uploading rendered podcasts, interviews, and project files into a neat folder structure for the fall interns. I believe it is a good practice to leave a tidy workplace behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Magazine<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Next week we\u2019ll hold the kickoff meeting for the January 2026 Phoenix Generation magazine and annual report – a project Mr. Marc has commissioned. Leveraging my layout and design experience, I\u2019ll join the team. Together, we\u2019ll brainstorm initial content and define everyone\u2019s project roles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reflection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I really value the hands-on experience and growth this internship offered, from fixing audio and video problems to writing the scripts and taking photos. I’m also happy that I will keep working with Dr. Lua on future projects, building on what we have achieved so far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This week, my main goal was to tie up loose ends while still starting new tasks. We finished another episode and locked another edit. The video release agreement form was on our radars, as well as a 3D print of a phoenix and the upcoming magazine project.
