So day four has come and gone. Today was a big deal, it was the day that we got to film our first individual packages for the news in the upcoming week. First off, we broke into our camera teams that were assigned to us yesterday. Then we had two hours to find and conduct our interviews as well as take shots for B-roll. As if this wasn't enough to keep us busy we also had to log all of our interviews and write a script. The logging was a piece of cake. Having done it once this week already, it served no real threat. After we picked out the best quotes and finished all of that I worked on the really hard part, writing my script. I found that it's actually not that difficult, it was just a new experience. Mrs. Falk gave us an outline for which we could follow and model our package off of. That was a big help. It took me about twenty minutes to finally get done writing my script and putting the different quotes, time codes, and stand up into the final package format. once I was done it was smooth sailing. I went into the next room to conduct my first voice over. that was really cool, and so easy too. I mean seriously, all you do is talk into a mic that records what you say. That took about a grand total of five minutes. And after that there was really nothing left to do for the package. I met back up with Adam (my camera guy) and gave him a copy of the package format. He would be using this to edit everything together. So yeah, today was alot of running around but the things that I learned made it all worth it.
