Break's over, get back to work

For the week of October 22 – October 28, I shot the women’s volleyball game (weekend) and provided a national reader as well as a sports reader. As I said I would, I shot the volleyball game with a HD camera. It was my first time shooting a volleyball game with a HD camera. Unlike the other camera I had previously used, this HD camera had a smaller viewfinder so I was forced to use zoom and pan a lot more. Since the batteries were nearly dead and there was enough material that had been shot by others that weekend, I decided to end early. For the sports reader, we weren’t actually required to submit one but since the sports show usually utilizes readers, I quickly wrote a reader on the men’s and women’s cross country teams. And finally, for the national reader, I submitted a reader straight off the Associated Press application. I tried to find one that was somewhat relevant to the demographic that the News Show might be trying to reach. But regardless, I believe that viewing different news articles can only prove beneficial to my illumination towards the news side of broadcast.

1.5 hours volleyball game + 1 hour sports reader + 1 hour national reader = 3.5 hours
