lI'm trying to keep up to date with these posts, and interesting enough to pass as journal entries for my class. And since I have some free time now, I thought I'd do a real update.
Management styles.
So, the role of the intern is to fill in when boring tasks are too tedious for the busy assisstants. I.e. unstapling things, filing, being put on hold with Hotel concierges (I'm not a paying guest, so why should they take my call?) But this allows me to keep my ears open and watch how things are played out. I'm starting to understand the power structure better and understand how things are getting done...I'm not as lost as before, but I'm definitely more bored. Now that I know that the bald man is in charge of the dark haired, pretty girl...it isn't as appealing to watch them talk. No more torrid love affairs to think of, just work. Now, this doesn't have anything to do with management styles. More of a note that the lack of structure in my job means it's taken more time for me to find structure within the company.
I can't actively discuss the projects' problems and the exact mechanics involved in creating the features currently in production, but I can tell you how much everyone is getting, who has been on set what days, and if the project is over/under budget. But the more I work with production, the more I'm aware of the fact I like production. I like organizing how things are going to get done and managing them, the best part is that producers get to travel to the sets. So yes, this internship has been fruitful because it's showed me various job positions I'd like to have. Perhaps being a line producer? Supervising producer? Not executive. I can't schmooze that good, that constantly.
Alright, back to work. And what the hell is this brown envelope with the scribbling for?
