1st Day @ ICS

Posted in Uncategorized on September 24, 2008 by alanq

Sept 16th was the first day of my internship with ICS Learning Group.  It was pretty cool they set me up on a computer and I proceeded to learn Final Cut Pro.  The whole thing is a new experience for me seeing how I don’t have much experience using a mac, but I’m a fast learner.  I made it about 3/4 through the tutorials before I got out of there for the evening.  Final cut seems pretty easy I can’t wait to hurry up and finish these tutorials so I can get some hands on training maybe next week.

OK so maybe I jumped the gun a little bit in my last post.  I GOT THE INTERNSHIP !!! I’ll be assisting with the video production and editing at ICS Learning Group.  I have very limited experience with editing video but I’m at the right place.  I’m a fast learner and they specialize in developing online learning videos and software. ( Fast Learner + Great Teacher = Success??? ).  I went in and met with everyone once again yesterday, they set me up on the computer and I began learning how to edit video with Final Cut Pro 4.  So the journey begins I’ll keep you posted on my progress.

Alright so I guess I put all my eggs in one basket.  I thought I was rolling I had already been in touch with this one company, sent them my resume and cover letter.  I went in for an interview and sat with the owner I met another gentlemen that was going to be my supervisor and I thought everything was going great when I left they told me they would be in touch with me.  Well it’s been about two weeks now and I think it’s safe to assume they’re not interested.  So what’s a student to do?  Back to the drawing board, now I’ve got to send out more resumes more cover letters and go on more interviews.  It took me a while to realize that I was wasting time sitting around and waiting for this internship to fall in my lap like it was owed to me.  But it’s cool now I realize I have to go out and  get it.
