Interning in Montreal

From January to April 2018 of my second semester of my junior year I studied abroad in Montreal and interned at EyeSteelFilm. Working at a documentary production company made me appreciate that style of film more, and have a better understanding. I got to work with many unique people in the film industry there. I even got to pitch my own idea of a film I would like Eyesteel to produce for me. I learned how to transcribe audio, make subtitles for English, French and Hungarian. And I also learned how to use different softwares such as DVD Studio Pro and Neofinder. Towards the end I didn't have the best time because they were running out of things for me to do, and my mentor was very busy. Looking back, I really enjoyed the experience overall; it was good to see what it's like working in the film industry. This experience helped me to realize for my future job I don't want to sit in front a computer all day, but I do want to be creative and be involved. I also developed a close friendship with one of my co-workers by pushing myself to talk to people within the first few weeks. And having already left Montreal I still keep in contact with him.
