Students visit studios, attend live and sitcom TV productions, meet with alumni, and get a sense of what LA has to offer. This is the 2014 group that I was a part of. A great way to close out my senior year of college. *Production note*-Filmed using a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera with a rented Panasonic 14mm pancake lens (which had dust in the elements that I did not notice until I reviewed the footage). -This is definitely the last time I would take the pocket camera anywhere without some type of stabilization rig. -I also missed having the quality of the Sigma 18-35 lens, but decided it was too big to carry around everywhere.
