Journal 19

I finished the edits on my articles before class today and the reflection is going well, just to give you a little update. But this is not going to be the focus of my journal entry. I just got back from a practice taping for Focal Point. Focal Point is the broadcast news program for Michigan State. Because of my background in putting a variety of graphics together for my high school, I was put in charge of running the graphics for the show. I showed up at the studio at 5pm, 1 hour earlier than the anchors, etc. with some of the other crew to set up the set, cameras, etc. Then after a little while we started trying to get through the show. There weren't many graphics because they had just switched to a new news system and we were basing the show off the last show from last year, so there wasn't much to do, hopefully it will be more interesting on the real show. I will also hopefully putting together some graphics for the show which is what I really want to do.
