Blog #3 - Lots of New Projects!

2/2/2017

After the relaxing, as well as exhausting, scanning project, there were a lot of new projects that came in this week, from movies, to live orchestras, to shows at the Hollywood Bowl. It was a long end of the week, but was exciting to work on some big projects nonetheless. And that means the weekend of volunteering, petting cats, and sleeping would feel even better. I wake up so much earlier than my roommates and definitely feel it (four cats are also a force that keeps you awake a lot as well...especially when they meow at your door). LA is quite the late starting city, but that means that we have to start even earlier to make sure everything is prepared for those late morning recording sessions!
    There were two live projects this week to work that were a little different process than normal. It fell mainly on the backroom to get the scores for E.T. Live all ready to go and copied for shipment. Then we got to work a bunch on the Dreamworks show, which was a very interesting process! There were a lot of scores that had to come up from the library that were looked at and made into such an amazing live show. Then I learned how to format the scores we were given to make them easy for the performers to play, like page turns--those were super essential. I really wanted to see the Dreamworks concert live! But, it was being played across the country, so maybe it will make it’s way to me soon.
    Another thing I learned was how to check in cues when the composer (or whoever they come from) sends them in. It’s a good process to make sure we have all the cues we need to get them prepped for the session as well as to alert the office that those are available to be worked on now! ​​
