Endersession Day #7: May 29, 2011 Rey Roody

4. How has or do you see your internship changing the way you consider that paths your future will take?

- It hasn’t necessarily changed my path of what I want to major in and pursue a career in or get a degree. My path toward the future is to get a degree in computer science—fixing computers, programming them, etc.—but my internship has encouraged and influenced me to have a focus on the graphics and specials effect and possibly editing field under computer science. I feel like this internship is still helping find out what I want to do after college. Also, this internship has helped me see through the outer layer, what’s being seen from the outside. I never would have guess that even before developing the visual part of a movie or film, it would be so hard to come up with a certain movie genre that would good enough to produce. It isn’t as easy as these famous actors and well-known directors make it seem. For the hard part isn’t coming up with an idea for a short film, movie, or music video; the difficult part is when you try to have some twist happen or having it shot from different perspectives of people in the movie. For example, when you have a movie with a twist, it has to make sense. At my internship it’s shown me that if you have a film or video with a crazy intense twist, it has to be able to connect with other things that happen or happened throughout the film. Foreshadowing is a huge thing to do in a film now. My mentor does things that foreshadow what he’s going to day a few days from now. He’s helped me realize that there’s something that hints at the twist, causing the audience to have an epiphany suddenly realizing what’s about to happen. And that’s when your twist comes in and what they thought doesn’t happen. The more I work at my internship, the more into it I get.
