Day 9

Today was somewhat compact in terms of being at the right place at the right time. We didn't have to be at Illuminarts Studio until 10:30 so we spent about an hour or so working on editing the beginning of the LINK film. The footage has mostly been cataloged so all that needs to happen now is decide which clips are the best to use and input them on the timeline in Final Cut Pro. We left AHS early seeing as how things could easily change at a photography studio so we arrived at downtown at 10:00. This gave Zach, Tony and I and opportunity to buy a cup of coffee and take a pre-shooting meditative walk. However, as soon as the clock struck 10:30, it was back to business as usual and we set up our equipment while Jerrica was shooting a photo session at the same time. Unlike our other internship shoots, we started this location by collecting B Role first and then conducting the interview. The most challenging part about this location was dealing with the inconvenience of having studio lighting with an open window on one of the walls. This didn't affect the photo shoot in the slightest but our camera was picking up an awful blue color when pointed away from the subject. It was very challenging to point the camera in the right direction to where this wouldn't be a problem.  The interviews went very smoothly despite Jerrica's nervous and shy behavior.

Our plan for the rest of the day was somewhat terminated though when we contacted Sara Martin, who was interning at the athletic department at Fort Lewis College, and were told that she wasn't going to be doing anything until 1:30. This did not match up with Tony's time frame because he had to teach SIG at AHS this afternoon so we had to abort shoot entirely. To my dismay, the information that Sara gave up was later proved to be incorrect which greatly disappointed me. I would have really liked to have shot one more location before the editing process started but I suppose that can be taken as another lesson. Expect to have things go in ways they were unintended to.
