Monday, as usual, was a half day at Authentic and I had the task of logging hundreds of still photos from previously shot episodes of My First Home (MFH). As the first few episodes of the 5th season were recently shot, I have been going through each photograph to write captions and fill out the episode log summarizing all of the photos.
The next few days were Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, so I did not go into the office Tuesday or Wednesday.
Thursday at Conan there was no show taping (because it was previously shot). Because of the no-show day, there were fewer interns and lots of the staff left early; the usual intern tasks commenced: answering phones, covering assistants' desks, going through mail, etc.
Yesterday (Friday) at Authentic, I continued logging numerous episodes' still photography. I also helped the post-prod staff with straightening out some legal paperwork for the edits.

(Short) Week 5: Dressing Room, Fender, and more!
So today is Wednesday: the first day of my work week (because of Rosh Hashanah, I was not working at my internship).
On Wednesday at Conan, I actually did some cool stuff -- I brought some of Conan's clothes from his dressing room (which is just wow!) to his office, I also went on a run for the band: picking up a new amp (from the Fender showroom, which was mad cool) and a vintage guitar, last thing of the day was get one of the executive producers' car a car wash!!
I have a feeling that there will be many more things to talk about later this week... and I was wrong -- everything was fun for Thursday and Friday, but nothing crazy happened!
Thursday at Conan started an hour early, as part of morning rotations for our interns. We made the first round of coffee, turned on the TVs/computers, and made sure everything was properly stocked before the staff arrived. Besides waking up and arrive to work an hour early, Ricky Gervais was on the show and was pretty hilarious... otherwise, it was a normal day!
For Authentic today, I have been preparing episode binders for the upcoming season of TLC's My First Home.
Now... IT'S THE WEEKEND!!!!!!

End of the Week 4
After the big hoopla for being on-air for one of the segments on Conan (at 9:14) of last week, Thursday and Friday went on as usual.
Conan on Thursday went by quick; it was a short morning and in the afternoon, I was green room / guest-entrance security. For this position, which rotates each day, the responsibilities include checking in guests of the on-air talent or show staff and making sure the talent interns know when the guests arrive and such.
For Authentic, I began taking the next step for casting by calling those interested realtors that were contacted via email. The first few phone calls were awkward and choppy and I didn't really know what I was doing, after the next few calls -- I settled in and found the right groove. I initially thought that calling prospective cast members would not be fun or interesting, but it turns out realtors are very friendly and engaging individuals to work it (might be why they are realtors).
As the weekend concludes, Rosh Hashanah begins and I will not be working on Monday or Tuesday... so check back later this week for class/internship updates
