Hello my children, it has been too longo since I wrote a post, so here comes a good one!
I am doing an internship in a small production company in Madrid called Patito Feo, which does publicity and some content for TV. They are great and are treating me very very well. So well in fact, that they took me to Barcelona for a couple of days to help in the filming of one of 5 programs about the San Miguel Primavera Sound Festival that they were producing.
I went on the 29th of may, to Sala Apolo, a very well known music hall in Barcelona. There I listened to great concerts by bands I had never ever heard of. There were two showcases of two different record companies: Memphis Industries and Famèlic.
There were really good bands like the Spanish Mates Mates or Ohios, but there were two that I thought were awesome: Elephant and Hooray for Earth!
I will talk more about these two amazing bands in my next posts, but let me keep talking about my part in the filming:
I had a great time actually. I was in charge of the "foto fija" the still photo. This was usually used in cinema for advertising purpoes, given that the still photo would imitate the actual shots and people got an idea of what the movie looked like. Nowadays it is not used that much due to digital cameras. In my case it was called foto fija but my job was basically to have images for a sort of "making of". I actually appear in the credits! (My first TV credits yay!)
It was really exciting to watch the crew working and checking on the fliming plan (which I had helped pput together :D). They all treated me very well too, so it was very nice to be around them.
In my next posts I will be talking about Elephant and Hooray for Earth in more detail!
Here's a presentation video of the San Miguel Primavera Sound

The Primavera Sound Festival is a really big festival of pop, indie, alternative music in Barcelona. It actually includes an incredible variety of musical styles, come to think of it. Well, the thing is that the main festival was this last weekend, in the Forum in Barcelona, with bands like Franz Ferdinand, Wilco, Death Cab for Cutie and many more. But the organization of the festival had been organizing free concerts in bars and concert halls from a month back, and it was a great oportunity for music lovers and small bands trying to get into the musical scene.
