Practicum had gotten out early so I headed over to the studio to wait for the sports show to start. Anna and I were bored and Bivens was already messing with the campus channel so we decided to ask him how exactly it works. We found some music CD's and he explained to us that they were for then the powerpoint runs but he never got around to uploading them all. We decided to help him out but had to wait till after the sports show. The sports show got started and I worked one of the camera's. We had one of the women's soccer players as the interviewee and she seemed a bit nervous. Once the show was over, Anna and I got right back to work with Bivens. We finished up the dozens of CD's that needed uploading, and he even took the time to show us the map of the school with a clear label of the campus channel.

I met Krissy and Maggie at Buckner Theater so that we could film Krissy's anchor standups. I had put them in charge of getting the camera out of the WTV office since I was in class all day. They had forgotten to grab the XLR chord so we had to use the wireless mic. I did a sound check to make sure that it would work and it did. Krissy was great at her standups and got them in just a few short tries.

(30 min)

6:30-8:30

Maggie and I went into the WTV office and uploaded the video that we had just shot. It was then that we realized that something had gone wrong with the audio and we would have to reshoot the standups. Edited together what we could, and figured out when we could do the new reporting. Krissy was not able to do it when Maggie and I were free so we came to the decision that I would be the new reporter and that the next time around Krissy would get her chance to make up for the technical errors. I recorded some voice overs and showed Maggie how to edit those in.
