I arrived at 9 a.m. and set up lights and recording equipment. All the interns, including me, are entering into a full production week starting today. I acted as the photographer for our first few interviews with leaders of UT’s Men Basketball Team, Austin Stone, and other communities in touch with UT. Jeremy Story, the founder of Campus Renewal Ministries, flew in from NY for the week to give the interviews. We got to know each other better and his heart for the campus as he led the interviews with respective people. I asked each interviewee to sign CRM’s media release form prior to filming. 4 people were interviewed today back to back, with each precisely an hour long.
At 5pm, I took footage of Fusion Group for half an hour as groups of people came together to pray and worship. Today consisted a lot of hands-on work and partnering with one another cohesively. Booms, cameras, lighting equipments, and interview sets were all utilized today. I had a good amount of first hand usage for the first time on all those equipments. Lots of ongoing shirt designs and footages were also rendered and transferred to Rez Week planning team today.
In between the interviews, I started another design on shirts as well and worked on that for a few hours. I ended up with two ongoing designs on Monday, gaining a lot of first time knowledge about Illustrator and Photoshop. There were no consensus on a shirt design yet and we were watchful of how the way we choose a design would created a rift between the RezWeek2012 planning team. Justin Christopher, CRM’s Director, quickly reminded us that our relationships are the most important thing through it all. This internship’s environment has been such a blessing and challenge to my faith and practical skills.
On Wednesday, two of us interns set up throughout the next two days of interviews. I learned to utilize the ceiling as a reflector for lights when we interviews Chi Alpha’s ministry leader because the set space was comparatively tight. We prayed before we begin the interview. I sat behind the camera for 3 of them during Tuesday and Wednesday capturing wide, middle, and close-up shots every other question. Jeremy, Kimberly, Isaac (intern), and I drove to the BSM building, Longhorn Center for Christ, and back to the CHOP for our multiple interviews. All our interviews were really successful and prompt.
On Thursday, I set up all the interview equipment again for Kimberly to interview Jeremy and Justin, the founders of CRM. We wrapped up our interview portion of our feature length documentary successfully and Jeremy flew back to NY the next evening. We are now on the verge of making the promotional video for Rez Week 2012.
