Lady Gaga In Australia

I've been getting some work experience at the Fairfax Digital Office in Pyrmont (in Sydney).

Yesterday I was hanging around the video guys who film and edit videos for online. Near the end of the day one of the guys was given a Lady Gaga interview to shorten for online.

I sat and watched as he edited it and even gave some of my input :D It was originally a 10 minute interview and had to be cut down to this 2min 30sec clip! (Watch below)

Also the guy that was editing this video had a picture on his phone of Lady Gaga coming out of her hotel! It was a really clear photo of her on his iPhone. He just happened to be walking by, not knowing what the crowed was for.

My goal for the year, learn Final Cut Pro X... so much cooler than iMovie!

Few Up-Dates

It's been a busy two weeks. I have a few more posts coming up but until then here's a short overview of my last two weeks. =)

Last week of June
- I did a lot of sub-editing which I am enjoying very much
-I went up to Darwin to welcome Terry home from Afghanistan (for those that don't know Terry is my wonderful boyfriend)

Last week
-Same old same old, wrote some stories for online (I will post them up later)
-Helped sub edit some videos
-Moved my stuff down to Picton to stay there

This week
-I'm working at the Fairfax Digital Office this week in Pyrmont! It's been great!
-Monday my head exploded learning about all the different areas of Fairfax digital and trying to grasp my head around how big the company is.
-Today I got to see what the video production people do, I saw two shows filmed and watch (and helped a little) a guy edit a interview to go online of Lady Gaga who is currently in Australia!


I've always been a little worried that I have so many interests and keep trying to figure out what I like or want to do the most. This week I've learned it's better to know and be able to do a lot because you'll end up doing a few jobs in one (which makes it hard for people to break down their job when I ask them 'so what is it that you do exactly').

I'll try to post some picture soon!

More posts to come! =)
