Under Pressure

When coming back from fall break I thought that I was going to have a nice easy three day week. But then I came to the realization that we still had to put on The County Line. Which for the most part isnt too bad, we just have to re-rack some past news stories. The only problem with this is sports can not be re-racked becuase then nothing would be up to date. So T.J. and myself are going to be seriously under the gun for the show this week. We have all the highlights we need and we also have Garrets Soccer Second from the previous week that we didnt have time to use. And my script is already written up, all that is left to do is to go over the highlights before I have to go on T.V. So this will be a realy test for T.J. and myself but I think that it is also something that is going to help us out for the future.

Remembering On The Road

I was going through The County Line website when i came across these old episodes of On The Road. Check them out. http://countyline.wordpress.com/on-the-road/

Soccer Second Success

For this weeks show I focused more on shooting and editing then I have in the previous weeks. I went do to the soccer field with Mr. Weaver to shoot “The Soccer Second,” which is hosted by Titan Town reporter Garret Horvath. Having Mr. Weaver down there with me was a big help, he acted as a producer/director and gave me some new ideas to try out. I experimented with new angles when shooting. I also used a canting shot in the segment. After filming I went up to the news room where I viewed the tape to look for the little things such as making sure I white balanced and had the correct filter on. The following day I edited the segment putting it together a little differently then the first segment. T.J. was down with me in the edit bay giving me his insight on how he thought the segment looked. I felt that this week on the County Line sports went over great seeing as how we only had one highlight to show, plus Garrett’s Soccer Second which turned out looking great.
