week 3,my first day.

Friday 15th August.
My first day at Open Channel.

Victoria Harbour
Shed 4, North Wharf Rd Docklands
Vic 3008.

Today i worked 9:30 - 4:30, it was easy enough to find as i have worked in the sheds there once before setting up stages for an event, i have also attended events there.
My first day consisted of a lot of little jobs as they were understaffed for the day, this didn't bother me as it is a good way to get to know the place and the people. First i got a tour of the place by Daniel. He showed me around the place and told me what happens where, and introduced me to the other people working there.
Most of the day i did a lot of photocopying for a little book i was going to make for a short course they have there called 'Concept to Script'. I photocopied all the pages which needed to be back to back then put them all in order, hole punched them and binded them. It was pretty boring, but after that i understand how much work goes into making those little books, and i will appreciate them more in the future. I did a bit of cleaning up as there was a a course there that night, things like a bit of sweeping and moving things around to make room. I also sat at reception for a little bit at the end of the day but didnt get any calls or people coming in so that was rather easy. I didn't really have any problems on my first day it was very cruisy, which helped me get used to the place.



My fist day was a good relaxed day to help me get to know the place and im looking forword to learning some other duties they have there especially having a go at some filming.

Open Channel sounds like it would be a very interesting place to work, lots of different people and things going on. Great blog, great photos.
