I HAD A 6-MONTHS INTERNSHIP AT...
BTS EDITOR
As a behind-the-scenes editor, I have to arrange how I want my photographer to shoot behind-the-scenes.
I would refer to various behind-the-scenes highlights, and then choose the most suitable one as my main reference. Then, arrange how to shoot behind-the-scenes highlights according to the reference.
I also have to know what my photographer took. In this way, when I am editing, I can quickly find the video I want, and it is also more conducive to me to choose the clips, and choose the funniest and most valuable clips.
VIDEOGRAPHER
2nd shooter/creative cam
As an assistant videographer, I also need to know our script and storyboard very well, and also know clearly what the director of photography has in mind.
I need to have a good understanding of the equipment I use so that I will not waste time during shoot. I can also quickly change the camera lens, use the right equipment to help with the shoot, so that the everything can proceed more smoothly.
Before shooting, I would always go for location recce to find the best angle. In this way, I would not waste time on the day of shoot, and I can also get the best angle quick.
Videos taken are:
PRODUCTION
MANAGER
In the company, my main job is a producer. As a producer, I must prepare for the shoot before we start production. Such as props, costumes, contacting actors and preparing the callsheet.
We need to make sure that everything is complete so that the shoot will not be delayed, there will be no problems, and it can proceed smoothly.
Videos taken are:
LOGISTICS/MAKE-UP
In the drama, Algorithm, I had to take up multiples roles such as make-up artist, logistics and production assistant.
Logistics was one of the toughest as we had to do a lot of budgeting and set-designing. Preparing all the props and taking care of them is also not easy as there are many days of shoot where we keep moving things up and down the van, in and out of the location.
Make up can get very stressful at times were there were a lot of casts waiting for 1 make-up artist and when they are rushing to start the scene. But I still managed to did it anyways by arranging the make-up properly to optimise workflow.
