First Day

My first day of work. A thin woman named Gabrielle took my hand as she introduced herself. She then listened intently as I told her my name. She smiled. Most of the women at this office are stunningly attractive. Many, I hear, are touchy-feely. Even better, the majority of those types are also single. Gabrielle's one of those girls who has a warm and friendly face. I'll probably enjoy working here.

I had to shoot three radio personalities on camera. Master Control wasn't monitoring the audio levels so it wound up being distorted. I wanted to reshoot today but the studio was being refitted for the newscast later that evening. I used the footage I had and completed the spot, regardless. Everyone agrees the footage sucks, but the post I applied to the spot really stands out. I'll have to reshoot tomorrow. This spot is for Larry, though, and he'll come looking for it soon. I won't back down. I will tell him what happened and show him what I had done, explaining that the new footage will simply be placed over the old footage and voila! Finished commercial.

I worked so hard on the spot that I didn't take my lunch break. It didn't really matter -- I wasn't hungry, anyway.

In the afternoon I created a commercial for a home healthcare business. It had to be done by 4:30 and I managed to do so. Cesar later admitted that he knew he was starting me off kind of hard. I told him I didn't mind -- I love a challenge.

It's bedtime now and I look forward to my second day of work tomorrow.
