Lorena is Leaving! [ NOT CLICKBAIT ]
Remember last year when I posted on my blog that I wasn’t sure if I was returning as an STA and then I crawled back onto the team that Fall? Well, this time I’m officially not returning… because I graduated! After 4 years of college I’ve claimed my Radio-Television-Film degree and Digital Arts and Media certificate from UT. I’m extraordinarily grateful to the STA program and I feel so much more prepared for whatever life will throw at me. Through my 2 1/2 years as an STA I’ve grown more adept at communication, confidence, leadership, time management, organization, and of course the many programs available from Adobe. Thank you so much to the whole current Design team, including De’sha, Leilani, Thang, Adriana, Lila, Carrie, Marissa, Diya, Raaga, Shriya, and Kyra, and also to my past STAs and managers!
Why is this post so delayed in my posting it, you ask? Well, I have some good news! As of late April 2024 I’ve been one of the Summer Film Camp Directors at Austin Film Festival. It’s been exciting so far to see things coming along, and our camps start in early June so we’re fast approaching our start date! I’ve been conducting registration audits, finding food donations/sponsors, communicating with parents, hiring instructors/interns, and everything that you can think of in between.
Now as my time as a Design STA comes to a close, I once again will share my LinkedIn page (www.linkedin.com/in/lorena-chiles) and Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/lorenachiles/) for all the Lorena fans out there. Thank you guys for following my journey, bye for now!
