Third day at Complete Post

Today, i had a chat with Vincent, the telecine colour grader. He started as a cinematographer, and he learnt how to use the grading machine at CompletePost. ONe day, I would love to do something like that, I really enjoy the look of a film colour grading process, it can really change the look of a film drastically! I saw a bit of his shortfilm ...........excellent colour!!

Today, I continue digitizing all the shots in!!

at work, we have to share the DV deck with all the other editing suites, so a lot of the time, we have to stop working and let the other use the deck for a while before we could get back on digitizing. At the end of the day, we cant finish digitizing all the tapes as time has run out!

Feelings, from thursday and wednesday's climax back to normal.......as its very hard to be in a company while the others are extremely busy, and you'll feel bad when you're there, its like you're interrupting their work. So always, I am waiting, quietly, patiently.

My cough was still pretty bad, especially when it gets colder, it makes me cant ask much questions which are on my mind. But eventually, I had a chat with Chris.

He started off from doing a photography course, and then worked in two post production companies at south melbourne called " chocolate " and " creativology" before working at complete psot. He started off from getting work experience, and then after hussling Michael ( the producer ) at CP, he finally get his job as an editor. I really want to do the same thing, as this kind of ways of getting into the industry is exactly the way that i imagine... so different when I was working on "Letters To Ali".........i find that I am enjoying more now~

But I was wondering, is it better to start off from smaller companies, to build up the skills before getting a real job in a big company? I am just worried, that if i dont have much skills, big companies might not want me as full time worker there~ But frankly. i would love to work there as general assistant, even if they pay me nothing!

Happy Friday!!
