On day two Mel and I took photos of all the people involved in the camp, so that we can punch out the backgrounds and chuck their photos into the credit roll which will be on the DVD. We also took photos of people for their blogs in front of a scenic area to show of the beauty of Mackay, in our school.

The others set up the lighting kit and made sure it was ready to interview people on Wednesday and Thursday.

Anna Hopper also came down and checked that we all know how to use the blog too!

Monday the 22nd of July consisted of us laying down the foundations of this Multimedia world we love. But before we got into details and aspect ratios, Ms. McQuaker kindly brought some food from Alcorn’s bakery for us to eat! And must I say, it was quite delicious. Mmm, Sausage rolls, Lamingtons, it makes me hungry thinking about it just now! While we ate, we all got to know each other, if we didn’t already. Some people that I had already taken the camp with in other years, and it was good to see them return. After the hang out session, we headed inside and Brad discussed the difference between NTSC (American) and PAL (Australian) video formats, and other things too, while Dylan filmed some footage for the first Podcast. We were all given folders and sheets to know the behavioural standards and dress code for when school goes out. We had to sign a form saying that we accepted all of the rules.
All in All, it was a good introductory day.

My name is Jess Pearson and I am in grade 11 and attend schooling at Mackay Christian College, located in Queensland, Australia. This is my third year participating in the Multimedia camp with Brad Huddleston. I enjoy using the computer especially programs such as Photoshop, etc. The Multimedia Camp is a great opportunity to widen your expectations and allow you experience the real world Multimedia environment. I know this year will be great!
