Week 2 of San Frans!

Hello~! I am back with my second post! This is my second week in San Francisco and for some reason, I felt this week pass pretty fast. Well! Maybe I am having too much fun! thats why the time passes so fast. hahaha... Anyway! I start with sharing what I have done this week follow up with the fun places I went! Basically, I continue to edit the short film for harvestfest that we shot last week, and we shot an interview with one of the cornerstone pastor to edit in with the short film. We were also taught about LIVE production and again, I got the chance to be one of the camera operator! We help to do LIVE production for their church services and it was mine first time doing it! It was really fun and I really enjoy operating the camera during the whole production. It was stress at the start because everything is LIVE and theres no CUT! or a take 2, so throughout the whole shoot, I got to be alert and attentive to what camera angle or shot the director want. But yeah..after awhile, I start to get the hang of it and I really had a great time during the whole production!


Now work aside! this week, We went to visit a few interesting places! Firstly, Harry brought us to adobe! Yes!!! Adobe!!! We went there to have a so-call editor gathering/meeting where editors from different area in san Francisco come to meet and attend talks by different professionals sharing their experience in filmaking and to introduce the latest editing software like final cut 10 and premiere pro 6. Pretty cool uh! and at the end of the meeting, there was a luck draw and ellis got a prize to attend a workshop?...hahaha.. the whole meeting was a great exposure for me and it will be cool if we had this kind of meeting in singapore!



Next up! We were brought by Harry to watch the grand national rodeo!!!! IT WAS AWESOME!!! how often do you get to see hundreds of audience dress up like cowboys, people riding and wrestling with a bull and cowboys doing stunts with horses? Ya...it was that intense...overall it was really a great experience watching the rodeo! Thanks Harry!!!



Lastly, we went to the wax museum at fisherman wharf! it was kind of a disappointment for the wax museum because I would expect to see more, and also get close up with the wax figure to take picture, but they were barricade and the whole place was quite dark, so could not really take picture with it. But still, it was a experience to visit the wax museum!

Ok! I think I have said enough for this week post! Phew! Pardon me the grammar error! Hope you guys enjoy reading!
