My last and final blog post of the semester. It seems crazy to me that my very first blog post was 15 weeks ago. I had absolutely no idea what I was getting myself into when it came to this internship, but I must say it is one of the dearest memories I will carry […]
Lights, camera and good lighting
When light is managed carefully it can increase the depth and intensity of images and its details. Having control of light can add interest to a face just by concentrating on the lights focal point. I pay close attention to lighting in photos and when editing because it contributes to the perception of the images […]
Sound Basics: It's better to practice listening
At RedEye, one of the most important production skills we pride ourselves in is crisp sound/audio. As the intern for the summer, I have had multiple opportunities to edit voiceovers (VO) for multiple projects. I have realized that many video projects focus on visual aspects, but it is a combination of video and audio that […]
Getting the Shot….
I have been one of these people…just not going to say who. Happy hump day! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1lwQ6XU5yw&list=PLBQgA3Kndk7e5vJ4WEkX_nrspfyLQwh6v

You may be thinking: What is a podcast and why do I care about them? Well, a podcast is an audio or video file downloadable to a mobile device (originally, the iPod, from which it gets its name) to be listened to or watched at a later time. In iTunes, you can set them up to […]
"What, its my third day and you need me to…"
On my third day at work with RedEye, Laura says we are going to shoot interviews which will be used in a special tribute for Friends of Cancer Research founder Ellen Sigal. This is a very good opportunity for me to see what is going on in the real world. In addition I have been […]

A recent query put out on the TIVA listserv got me thinking. This is a subject that has come up here on an almost daily basis for the past year, and we decided this would be a good time to poll the professional community. The School of Communication trains students in both broadcast news […]
How To Be A Successful Production Assistant
I know it sounds crazy, but sometimes being a PA gives me a real warm fuzzy at the end of the day. I love when the shoot is over, and the rest of the crew says “Thanks! Had a great time working with you, or something as equally polite. Although being a Production Assistant is, […]
