I have exactly 18 hours, WOOHOOO

Week of 10/15

Helped Austen write some stories for the News Show on Sunday Night (2 hours)

News Show- 10:40 on 10/15 was probably the best one yet! It's starting to look really polished with the help of Dr. Allen.

Total=3 hours

10/1 Hours

Monday- News Show went great.. Helped Austen write a majority of the script so he told me to give myself an hour. I'm learning more and more about production every week of the News Show.. things I wish I learned last year. Slowly but surely, every week is starting to look more polished. (2 hours)

Wellness TV- Our episode wraps up today and we handed out new topics. Michelle seemed pleased. (1/2 hour)

On Wednesday, I took pictures of Watermelon Bust for Interlachen. I feel as if "live shots" are my specialty. (2 hours)

Total- 4.5 hours

9/24 Hours

I knew I wouldn't get many hours this week due to Recruitment.

Monday 9/24 :
Southern News- Ran sound and helped out with odds and ends. - (1 hour)
Wellness TV- Learned about changing the name of our production, still couldn't find anyone to interview. Disapointed in myself. (1/2 hour)


Next week will be more involving.



Total- 1.5 hours

9/17 Hours

Monday, September 17th- Southern News Show- I worked the sound and really learned how the switchboard works. It was frustrating because we had to take numerous takes because the sound was not cooperating. The levels of sound were absolutely perfect, i was impressed.  (1 hour)

I also submitted stories for the show to Austen (1 hour)

Wellness TV meeting- We discussed the different packages and I decided to work on the Neurowater package. Unfortunately, Dr. Lynch never emailed me back and now I have to find a new professional to interview. (1/2 hour)

9/21 I helped Lauren Hernandez with her News Media Project abouta thrift store in Lakeland that 100% of the proceeds go to Autism research. I filmed the story with her and wrote some of the script. I can't wait to help her edit! (2 hours)

9/22 For Interlachen, I took pictures of Fraternity Bid Day.  I arrived at 9 am, but was told I couldn't take pictures until the new guys accepted their bids, so I waited until 10 and took pictures until 12. Bob Drake helped me the day before with learning the new camera. I think I have a secret passion for photography. (2 hours)


Total this week: 6.5 hours

Week of September 10th

9/3- We shot our first News Show with Dr. Bradford's help today. Austen did a wonderful job, one take and he was good. Rachel ran camera while Lauren and I learned about the switchboard from Bradford. I'm really proud of everything this show is turning out to be. (1 hour)

I wrote a story regarding Greek life for Austen (1/2 hour)

Wellness TV meeting- 1/2 hour We discussed topics for the next show, and I brought up Neurowater. It's a package that I want to "take over" and start my first package for Wellness TV.. I'm very excited


This was a rough week for me, so next week I can kill it with lots of hours!!!1




Total- 2 hours

Week of September 3rd

September 3rd- Today at 10:40 we had our first meeting for our (not titled yet) News Network! Austen is the producer/big man in charge. There were six of us, and we all seem really devoted and passionate about this new program. We're actually meeting for lunch sometime this week to discuss more of what we want to give our audience from this production. I am especially excited for this show to air. 1.5 hours Wellness TV- 1/2 hour meeting. It's good to be back in the conference room for Wellness TV meetings. Happy Labor Day! Today was pretty much introduction and assigning to packages for our first show. I hopefully am working on the cycling package! Feels so good to be home with my Broadcast Junkies

Intimidated

Dear Bradford, I'm excited to be back for my second year as one of your students. I'm still crazy intimidated by you. Whats up Practicum III :)
