Day 2-the real fun begins

So today was the second day of Advanced TV Talent. We started out with the studying of interviews from past years. These interviews gave us a hands on look at what we will be doing in our upcoming project for which we will conduct an interview with a well known reporter. In our case, Julian Grace from KMOV. We have been given the opportunity to compete against each other for the chance to interview this person. I think this is a clever way to get people more involved. It certainly spices things up a bit. As the day went on we moved over to the news studio and worked on our story about this class. I was interviewed as a student as were two other people. The other two were the Anchors and actually reported about the studio and lab. After that we were all given the chance to do a stand up, which was a very good experience. It really helped put us in the mind of a real reporter, not to mention taught us a lesson about memorization. Further on into the class period we were given the chance to take time codes on the interviews of late. We pulled the best quotes of each interview and wrote them down in groups. Then, to close out the final hour, we returned to our home room and logged all of the information of the day. It truly was a beneficial and informational learning experience.
