First Press Screening

I am interning at National Geographic, in the Kids Entertainment Division. Currently I am working with the VP of Production on finding new animators for various shows that are ready to be picked up by networks.

Today I went to a press screening of Sea Monsters, the new NG IMAX flick. I was completely amazed and utterly immersed in the experience. Once I got over the initial feelings of awkwardness when your eyes are adjusting to 3D, my complete attention was diverted to the show. No email checking, no text messaging, no chatting, just me, my 3D glasses, the screen and of course all of the creatures that appeared so close that I could high-5 them!

So was this Dust or Magic, absolutely MAGIC! It was so magical that I found myself wishing that I had gone to school to study archaeology. My only comment on the film, is that children that are too young may find it scary.
