NEWS GATHERING

BRAINSTORMING

When brainstorming for our weekly broadcast, I think about what is happening within our school district. Each school within the community has a Facebook page where we upload what is happening. I check each school's Facebook page for weekly reminders and class activities. Teachers and administrators also email my advisor with information they would like Tiger TV to share.

DEVELOPING THE STORY

After I had looked through all the news for the week, it was time to pick what would be most interesting to create a story. Once the story is picked, it is time to write out questions for the interview. I ask questions that would give background information on the topic and ask questions that would keep our viewers engaged.

WRITING THE SCRIPT

I start a script once I have all the interviews and news of the week listed. Since most information is already on our district page, I rephrase the words while giving an accurate account of what I am sharing. Inserting transition words while grasping the viewer's attention is fundamental to a flowing broadcast. Each weekly broadcast we work as a team. One person covers the news and the other does sports. We also make sure that each announcement has pictures or videos to go along so that viewers know what we are talking about.
