Day 9 at Media Development

Today was a short day here at Media Development thanks to the approaching 3 day weekend. I normally don't work Fridays but I came in today to help Frank with some stuff while he was gone shooting. Today I just cut audio all day, cutting out unusable parts and separating what is usable into categories. Today was a short 3 hour day. I also realize I haven't been posting any pictures lately, so as soon as I start getting things completed I will try and change that. Other than that, time to enjoy the weekend.

Day 8 at Media Development

Today was fairly uneventful, just working on some more logos for the new restaurant, which I won't be able to show you until after they selected one I'm sure. Other than that I worked on a brochure a lot of the day too, which is getting close to being completed. I also had a couple meetings today. One about helping to create an insert for a new product, and one about updating a brochure for a non profit organization. All in all the internship is exposing me to a lot of new elements, which is good. Another 8 hours today too.

Day 7 at Media Development

Today I was able to do something a little different than normal. Frank and Susan were gone on a shoot, so while they were gone I helped Frank out all morning and cut some audio. It was a lot of interviews so my job was to go in and just cut out the unusable parts and then sort what was usable into categories. It was something different so I enjoyed it. The other half of the day I just started to work on logo ideas for a new restaurant. I haven't gotten to do that in awhile so that made the day go by quick. Another 8 hour day.

Day 6 at Media Development

Today consisted of a little designing, but mostly consisted of meetings and learning some new things. Frank taught me today how to do some video editing so I can start helping out with that while he is gone on shoots. That was new for me and pretty interesting, something I have never done before so I am excited to give it a shot. Later we just met about up upcoming projects and where we were on things. So I may not have done much designing but I still felt like it was a productive day. Another 8 hours for me again.

Day 5 at Media Development

Today was a lot of resizing black and white ads for newspapers. So our normal Monday. The only thing color that I worked on was the brochure for the golf tournament which will be done soon and I will be able to throw up here. I also got a color ad done Thursday that I did not put up here so I will post that. It is a really simple ad for a Memorial day sale. So right now lots of little bread and butter ads. In a few days though I will get to start working on some logos though so that will be exciting. 8 hours today.

Day 4 at Media Development

Today I went to a meeting with Tim and Brandy to work with a company on a logo. They started on it before I got here so I have not got to touch it yet but I will in a few days. It was good to experience the elimination process of logos and the narrowing down of ideas. We have another round with them in a week so I will get to go to that too. When all is said and done I will post the final product here. I did some little newspaper ads today and worked on the brochure more. Nothing too crazy. Another 8 hours today too.

Day 3 at Media Development

Today was a pretty uneventful day. i just finished up changes on a few projects and resized some ones that Tim (the other designer) had already done. I started a brochure for a local Heating and Air company but it is still in the very early stages. I did do a small graduation ad for a newspaper. Also another 8 hours today.
