My Favorite Piece of Technology

Since I was a little girl I always feel a connection with the computer. I see to computer like a colleague that it supports in the bad times and good times, although I know that the  technological device fail.

I had three different computers, because these are old or this burn its hard disk drive. Now I have a notebook ASUS that my father gives for my 24th  birthday.  My notebook has a lot good characteristic, for example, Core i7, RAM of 12 GB, Hard Disk Drive of 1 TB, etc. The notebook I am using to play indie games, browse in the internet, do works, listen music, read manga, watch movies, series and anime.

The life without my notebook would be monotonous.  Really very boring, but I would have that to search another colleague.   

Why did you choose your career?

When i was a girl, i had a dream, but it never hapened. I wanted to study engineering in the Federico Santa María Thecnical University in Valparaiso, because my father studied to become an engineer at this beatiful campus. However, in my fifteens I realized that a lacked the mathematic and science skills or knowledge to apply. Due to a school proyect, I had to make a video about the moon. Because of this, my faher showed me Sony Vegas, an edition software. This is how I edited my first video, with images and a background voice about the moo travels. I had very much fun with it and I cotinued to edit school works, as videoclips. As a result of this, I begun to search information of where I could learn edition in a professional career, when I found that "Cine y Tv" in the University of Chile was the one that met my needs, I applied.

Throughout this five years I’ve been in the university, I’ve learnt a lot of things, but I also realized that I don’t like fiction to much, although, I love documentaries. In the future, I would like to work editing documentaries, because is magical in comparison to fiction

My autobiography

Hello!. My name is Bárbara Olmedo. I am 24 years old. I was born in 1992.  I am studying cinema and tv in the university of the Chile.  My mother is  Argentinean and my father is Chilean. They are divorced. My sister travels for all Latin America, because she loves to meet different places and persons. I have two cats black fat very annoying, but I love. The name of cats is Heaven and Venus. They are 13 years old.
I love anime since I was 8 years old, cause that the anime  Evangelion (1995) surprised a lot  for its story convoluted and its main character unstable. Also I used to watch this anime with my father  every  Sunday in the night. Now we watch Battlestar Galactica.
My family encorage my love to movies because every time  we go to the cinema on weekend. Nevertheless now it is difficult to watch movies, the reason is the university ruins my view about the cinema. Now I see the movies in a very technical way.
