If this past week seemed busy to me, this coming week will be even more hectic. I'm going to be working more and more with Eren, as her premiere for Precious Knowledge creeps up and Discovery Channel en Espanol demands more and more footage for a film, and finishing up editing videos of yesterday's (Friday's) wedding with Jacob and filming another wedding on the 26th.
However, I have had some recent accomplishments. Last monday, Jacob's daughter Piper was baking some hamantaschen and he decided to film the whole baking process. Being the type of person he is, he gave me the job of editing the footage and sat back to watch me work. I did and I was amazed that it took me only about two days the really finish editing the video, which could mean two things: the video is crap or I did a pretty good job and am just getting more familiar with editing software. I'll let the readers make their own conclusion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2lCu8Da2gOU
My next accomplishments were helping Eren and Ari out with things they didn't have time to complete. I finished scanning releases for them, bombarding people with 'Precious Knowledge' postcards, and helping out on some film shoots. Ari even let me film a bit and do audio recording (which isn't really a daunting task) for their documentary for Discovery Channel en Espanol. (Oh, and I made a previous mistake in one of my blogs. The documentary for Discovery isn't focusing on one family being affected by SB1070, it deals with multiple families).
This week is going to be better than last, despite my hectic schedule. On Tuesday, I'm going with Eren and Ari to Phoenix to interview the infamous Sheriff Joe for the Discovery documentary. Then on wednesday and Thursday I'm just going to be helping them out with preparations of the premiere. Hopefully everything with go smoothy, since they premiered in San Diego on the 18th and said everything was great there. With Jacob, I'm just going to be doing some of the same old, same old, which is editing and organizing. This week I want (and need) to really get started on my final product, which always gets pushed aside by something else, and I want to practice more with a steadicam that Jacob recently acquired.
Hope everyone else is having a great time with their internships!

What is a Senior Research Project?
At BASIS Tucson, seniors have the chance to propose an independent research project that takes place off campus during the last trimester of the year. The seniors whose proposals are accepted write their own syllabi and then head off into the world, to a site where they conduct their research while interning with a professional in the field. Those of us stuck on campus follow their adventures on this blog. Now that the projects are over, we are all excited to attend their presentations. The schedule is as follows:
Wednesday, May 11, 6-8 PM
at the U of A Poetry Center (environmentalism projects)

Saturday, May 14, 10-12 AM

The video had some personal and detailed shots so it was pretty charming. I didn't know what hamentashen was, but that makes me want some.
