First Day - Philippa Price

For our work experience we are working at the Picture House, Cambridge. This work experience happens to be doing the Film Festival, so we are helping out with a lot of the jobs which need doing around the place.
Today, on our first day, we were all over the place and everyone was being assigned different jobs. My first job of the day was to help some of others pack various items into 'goody' bags, which will be for the VIP's and a few others to have once they arrive. This task turned out to be a lot of fun, as we made our own assemble line and this helped us to get the job done a lot faster and correctly.

My second and final task of the day was to go around the Picture House with a digital camera and record various places within the building. Our video turned out showing all the preparations for the film festival and everyone getting ready. Once we had gathered all the footage we could, we then had to get back to editing room to edit the footage, put over a sound track and upload to the Cambridge Film Festival website.
I worked on this piece with Natalie and we found it all quite simple until we had to put the music on. The website in which we used to get the music for the video, was quite complicated and we didn't download it properly and this took a lot of our time to make sure that the right format was downloaded and it was definitely an MP3 so it would work with the video.
We finally managed to get it all to work and uploaded it all fine. Once it was uploaded we posted a little something about it underneath and it was complete. Here is the web address to the page on the website which our video is posted.
