Today Cox Media had another training. This time it was about Time Management. We discovered our priorities and what had to change to be successful. We were given a list of things that can help us with our time management at work and in life.

Today I was given a bunch of Infiniti car footage to digitize for a spot. It was a bunch of raw footage that I had to cut up into small shots. After lunch, Matt showed me some funny spots that he did for place called Gamers Zone. I helped him come up with another idea for another spot in the future.

Week Eleven
March 20, 2007 -
Today I went with Matt and David to Utterback Middle School to help them film a commercial. It is a magnet school that concentrates on the arts. We got to film music, drama, and dance.

Ray referred to today as a "catch up day." Access Tucson and Discover Tucson spots, which are always done on Fridays, had to be finished as well as the rest of the spots for the rest of the week. David let me do most of the editing on a DV8 spot which turned out awesome!

Week Nine!
March 6, 2007 -
Today was a standard editing day. I worked on an old 30-second spot just to practice more on Avid.
March 9, 2007 -
Today I attended a training with the Cox Media staff about Self Awareness. In this training we all learned about different personality types and which personality type was our own. We learned how to use that knowledge to our advantage when communicating with customers. We learned how each personality type likes to be dealt with.

Today everyone was out of the office so it will be made up another day.

Today I got to help edit a complicated Discover Tucson spot with Matt. After, I did a ten second recording for a Cox Media spot. It was very exciting to know that my voice would be on a commercial. After lunch I went with Matt and David to Ace Hardware to reshoot a couple shots because of a new rewards card. I help set up the lights and camera and held the boom mic.

Week Seven!

Today Matt and I met with a client at Cabinets Plus. They just opened their store and want to get their name out to the public. The client gave us information about her store, her budget, and what she wanted. She wanted to keep the first commercial simple with still photos and a low budget.

Today Ray gave me the task of writing the script for Cabinets Plus. I had to go through pamphlets that the client had given us and make a safe and informational script, like the client wanted. I also got to come up with some more creative scripts to pitch to the client for more options or maybe even future commercials. It was difficult but I would love to see one of my scripts and definitely see one of my creative scripts be used in a commercial.

Week Six!
February 13 -
Today I had a talk with Staci. Although I had learned a lot about the marketing at Cox Media, I felt that my time in marketing was not being used very well. Staci and I decided that it would be best if I spent my time on Tuesdays in production.
The guys were at a shoot at the Auto Mall so I went over there to help out. This shoot was a little different than usual because we were working with another advertising company. They did the creative thinking and writing for the ad and we did the filming. Many of the same shots were taken over and over again until the directors felt that the actor, light, and sound was perfect. It was very windy and I had to hold down the sunblocker so it didn't blow over into the very expensive cars. :-)

Remember that sushi commercial that the guys did? Today we did the editing for it. I batch captured all of the shots into Avid and made a rough cut. David came in and help me make the final cut of the commercial. It looked really nice. I can't wait to see it on TV!
Later I went with Kevin from marketing to meet with an old client of his. We went to the client's gym where he talked about his business, his lectures, and his new book about healthy weight-loss and life-styles. The client asked me to come up with some ideas for a potential commercial and asked Kevin to come up with a package of potential air times.
