An internship is an
assortment of opportunities from starters to dessert served hot on the plate. Being
an intern at Studio 33, I got this super cool opportunity to visit a corporate
office. The Managing Director of the company wanted to record a message for the
sales department of the company. So there we enter a crew of 6 members, through
the large gates, and past the several security checks. After getting our bags
scanned, and receiving our “visitor” Id cards, we were directed to the MD’s
office building. Up on the first floor, it took approximately an hour, for the
crew to set it up for the shoot. We had to make sure the lighting, sound, the
angle, was perfect, the frame was appealing and making sure the flowers in the
vase were fresh enough. Never knew so much of importance went into the angle in
which the speaker’s chair was positioned in. When the MD entered, the room was
prim and proper. All cameras ready, set to roll. I was asked to attach the
micro phone to her dress. There were four other people in the room plus a
security at her disposal. One of her secretaries stood there making a note of
all that she spoke in front of the camera.
After the shoot was
over, she sat down with Siddarth, talking about her ideas, her requirements
from Studio 33 and the various other videos she wanted to shoot. She was
interested in making short videos for the various departments of the company,
for this particular company, is a client who enjoys both the animation and the
live action videos from Studio 33.
Later, we had to pass
through the several gates in the large green compound to get to our exit. It
was heart-warming to see that the people in the campus were environmental
friendly. They had a lot of greenery and there were battery vehicles to move
around the campus.
I walked out of the
gate with the rest of the crew, after a happy first experience inside a
corporate office, a smile on the lip and saving the tag they gave for my bag as
a souvenir. I may not be working in one of those offices, but it sure was a
great experience to visit one. I think that is one of the advantages of being
an intern at Studio 33!
