This show dates back to the end of October. The reason for implementing this show on my website is a little different than the others. I choose this show because of the headlines and the stories within it. This day, we had a lot of reporters including a live shot which went pretty well. I believe this newscast showcases all of these different aspects that producers should be able to do both efficiently and precisely.
This show is from 9.27 when Hurricane Helene made landfall. The reason I am showcasing this show is because to start the show, I did a cold package open which at the time, I had never done that before. I spent a large amount of time preparing for it, scouring CNN and NBC for soundbites and high quality video that I could write to while also doing the whole newscast. I believe this newscast shows my time management skills and my creativity, outside the box thinking.
This show is from early on in the semester. I believe it was week one actually. The reason behind me showcasing this show is again because I was able to try something I had never done before which was what we call an umbrella opening where we tell the viewers, here are the big stories that we are covering but first lets go to this story. That days news was the perfect opportunity for this kind of opening because it allowed us to give our viewers some context to the events leading up to that day.
