BYU Internship

This summer I had the opportunity to do an internship at BYU in the Independent Study Department. I was able to work the camera a couple of times, I learned how to set up the equipment we used for shoots, I also learned some techinical terms for the equipment, and I also got to do a fun commercial shoot and some lecture shoots. I also was able to be in a BYU commercial. In the commercial we are sponsoring the tutoring program and so I was tutored in math, which was fun because I actually learned some math that day that I had forgotten. :)
While I was at BYU, I also edited some lectures using Final Cut Pro. I think that I now like Final Cut Pro better than Adobe Premiere. I worked with smart and fun guys. We had a lot of fun. It was easy to talk to them and when I had a question or needed some help they were there for me. I learned a lot from them and how to edit and use parts of Final Cut that I couldn't figure it out on my own. One thing I learned that was funny from the guys is that I should never use the new software of Final Cut Pro called Final Cut Pro X. They were always talking about how bad it was compared to Final Cut Pro and would make jokes of it. It was great! I loved learning from them and listening to their conversations and of course I added my own opinions. Sometimes we would get talking and get on a very random subject and it would be pretty funny. There's a lot of inside jokes. 
I'm glad that I was able to have the great experience of going to Provo and that I was able to get a free education and learn a lot. I also enjoyed meeting great people and making new friends. I loved my boss and co-workers they made it great! I couldn't ask for better ones.

Spirit Week Video



(Click on the picture to watch on YouTube)
In 10th grade, I produced this spirit video. We had a classroom competition for the best spirit video, and I tied for first place with another student. His and my video were both shown on our Pack TV announcements, where the whole school could see it!
