Troma Internship NYC 4/19-4/20/11

I spent Tuesday working on "What Waits in the Dark" in Union, New Jersey. Wednesday I came in and did some more office relaqted work. Website updates, which was mostly checking the running time of movies to make sure they were correct and I did some more artwork scanning to put up on the website. I worked with photoshop and had to resize some images and search through the Troma database for DVD box artwork. I ran some small errand also.

Troma Internship NYC 4/12-4/13/11 Bradley Creanzo

More of the basics this week with uploading dvd box art for movies on the Troma Website. Scanning and uploading is pretty much what I did for most of this week. I did some odd and ends running errands, but nothing that was any different from what I've been doing. I've spent some time also working on my Bible Belt Slasher Pt.2 script. I just filmed the doctor's office scene about a week ago and it came out pretty good. Just need to edit it together now. My friend Rich's movie begins production next week and I'll be working on that aside from my project and I also purchased more gear while at the internship in NYC(boom pole, more lights for my kit and some gels). The movie I mentioned above is "What Waits in the Dark". I'll be doing several key jobs: Actor (I'm playing the killer), Lighting, Camera/DP and assistant director.
The movie is a haunted house flick (it's not "Paranormal Activity", thank god)! More like a cross between "Halloween" (Carpenter's 1978 classic) and "Home Sweet Home" from 1980.

Spent a lot of time on line doing more website updates. This time I had to scan artwork for movie titles that did not have artwork onto the website. Some titles were, "Prime Target", "Luther the Geek", Pep Squad", etc. I did a lot of titles. This took up most of the day and the next day I continued the same for most of it along with running some typical errands: weighing boxes for shipping, packing boxes for the Tromadance film festival and other things: T-shirts, book, dvd, pins, etc. I was busy the whole day and left a bit early due to the fact that I needed to prepare to film my movie "The Bible Belt Slasher Pt. 2". Oh also, I had to go to B & H to pick up some equipment. I also bought myself a boom pole and some gels for my lights while I was there. Damn boom pole cost me $ 130! What a rip-off. A great pole, but I think I gopt raped on the price. B & H shopuld really be inspected by better business bureau because they royally rip people off it seems.
