Meeting with Rick & First shooting of the concussion video



For today, I had a meeting with Rick, who is charge of Access and Delivery Services in the evening. He's been working at the Yale Library for about 20 years, and for the most part he enjoys it. He is also does customer service. Also, he mentioned the team atmosphere here; everyone is always supporting and interacting with each other. Then, I got to meet some of the staff at the circulation desk. I even got to be a shadow for the people in charge of finding articles and delivering them to library library users or external customers. It was pretty informative and neat because Velma showed me how they deliver these articles using different software programs. After that, I got to work with Jeffrey again on the concussion video. The place where we decided to shoot at was at the Harvey Cushing Center where the brain tumors are displayed. I managed to get through the whole process of rehearsing. The video idea became movie making, because you have do many takes and memorize your script in order to perfect the video. In addition, Charlie showed me a cool website called: http://burn-studios.audiotool.com/. This website allows to make your own electronic sounds or music files. It gave me idea to maybe use that in the concussion video. In concluding, this day was fun becauseI again got to try something new.
