She's Off!
Wendy just left for school – 1st day. Time off went fast.
Valerie came over last night & did her hair -> lightened & cut, short, all one length – v. diff. New clothes, from designer outlet malls near Palm Springs. Looks like a new person.
During the 9-month hiatus, she spent lots of time reading about the editing process (especially Walter Murch), watching films on USC's (sizable) Essential & Recommended lists, and learning ins & outs of non-linear editing (Adobe Premiere). She also got pretty handy with a professional audio editing progam called Vegas Pro - made by a company named Sonic Foundry.
Today
is Orientation, where she'll find out classes & schedule. Classes start
Monday.
Saw lotsa ear-to-ear grins this morning at brecky (early).
She’s excited about beginning graduate Film school at USC - the same school where her dad & both grandpa’s also attended. Got a family Trojan thing goin’ on.
