Its September 8 my first day to intern for City Tech’s Office of Visual Communications. I would have to say I was nervous and anxious. I kept wondering what Mr. Vargas would have me doing on my first day. Hopefully, I didn’t forget how to use some of the programs of the Adobe Creative suite. I got there at 10 am I told Norma (the lady that works there) that I m here to intern. Mr. Vargas walked me over to my desk and I got to say my desk is quite roomy. He placed my school bag on the table I took out my macbook pro. Mr. Vargas gave me about 6 pictures of students working in the construction management/civil engineering field. The images had marker marks on the places I needed to mask out in the photography. Throughout the day I worked on those images. Around 1:00 PM Mr. Vargas came over and told me I can go out to lunch at either 1 or 1: 30 PM. I decided to get more work done so I stuck around till 1: 30 PM. By, 1: 30 I was starving I left for lunch for an hour. I went to the deli on Jay and Tillary Street and I got myself a Turkey on a roll and a bottled water to stay hydrated. As soon as I was done eating I went back to the office of visual communications. From 2: 30 till 3: 30 all of the photos had been masked and Mr. Vargas took a look. The only thing I needed to do was clone out the sky reflection on solar panel the student in the picture was holding. Since my time was nearly over Mr. Vargas told me to work on it tomorrow. At the end of the day I felt like I accomplished something. I was satisfied with the masking work I had done and I learned that it’s quicker to use the selection tool, eraser and the refine mask to mask images.
Dear Huseyin,
In future posts, tell us more about yourself and your career goals. You should also describe what the Office of Visual Communication does in greater detail. Again, try writing shorter sentences and pay attention to punctuation. You wrote “Its,” but it should be “It’s” for It is. My advice: get a copy of Rules of Thumb and refer to it often.
Sincerely,
Professor Mason
