Day 22 - Editing

Hey Everyone!

Training was pushed back to 2:00PM Tuesday.  It was nice to wake up leisurely.  We again ate in the courtyard I got some french toast - again, just a bit different.  I think the toast was deep fried and it was served sans syrup.  The new subway line 10 opened recently which takes us directly to the Olympic Green.  Line 8, which actually takes us into the Olympic Green, won't open until the 25th.  Training was normal, basically. We listened to another lecture about flash quotes and did a mock flash quote interview.  It's the stereotypical scene - a bunch of us in a big huddle shouting out questions to the incoming athlete.  The "athlete" (Sally) would play out different scenarios: an athlete that didn't talk much or an athlete who talked too fast.  We had to cope with the situation as it developed.

The evening was spent editing a promo for KOMU.  I've been working on a one-minute piece that will go on our blog - and maybe on television - as the games get closer.  I estimate it took about 30 hours from start to finish.  I'm pretty happy with the result and can't wait to show you guys soon!
