Good Week

Alright, before I really get cracking on my paper (planning to finish it tonight so I don't have to worry about it anymore) I wanted to update... It's been a really good week at work and I wanted to share it!

On Tuesday, I was doing some basic editing on Photoshop. Cleaning up the images, doing a little levels/brightness/contrast whatnot when one of my bosses remembered that we really needed to get to work on a couple images. This wasn't any basic editing though, it was something a little more complicated only one of the guys really knew how to do. He had written directions and showed a couple people, but the paper was lost, and no one really remembered how to do it. They asked me if I somehow knew how to do it... I told them I sort of watched James do it once while he was talking to me... I asked for 10 minutes and a computer to try to figure it out on. Somehow, I found a way to make it work (wasn't EXACTLY) the way he did it... but it worked! It was very exciting to be able to really contribute to the production in that way. Sure, I've taken a couple pictures before, done basic editing, but for me to be able to teach them and help them out felt great :)

On Wednesday, I got to develop my roll of film I shot with their camera. It felt good to be working with film again since it's been a couple months since the last time I was able to.
After that, I got to help Antony shoot the Primer League trophy! Compare this to the Super Bowl Trophy then multiply the love America has for that by like three million and that kind of starts putting this trophy into perspective :) Hahaha... It was super big, and pretty... and shiny. Which means reflective... Which means SO much fun to photograph.. haha. We ended up building a huge cylinder out of white paper to wrap it in, and cutting a hole in part of it to stick the camera through. It was quite a process, but it turned out really nice. Here's a picture for you: TROPHY - Pretty sweet, right? One of my British friends (who is a big football fan) couldn't believe I got to touch it! (even though it was only with gloves on) haha...

Today: Was a fantastic day. I got to work in the dark room alllllllllllllllllll dayyyyyyyy. Made a lot of prints of my pictures that I'm excited to show off when I get home :)

Alright, well, I think that's enough procrastination for now. I really better get to work on this paper...
