On Saturday, I spent 4 hours at the Connecticut School of Broadcasting with the intent of spending most of that time in the radio studio. While it didn't quite work out that way, I still feel that it was time well spent. Instead of spending all of that time in the studio, I worked on editing the almost 30 minutes of audio files that I obtained conducting the interview with Steve Dunn and Steve Sylvia from The Steve Dunn Band. I wanted to end up with about 5 minutes of footage for our one hour show.
Our studio time did not go unused, though. Four members of our group were there for at least part of the time and we all got some time in there recording various bits. Part of my time was spent recording another commercial. Our show needs to incorporate at least three original commercials, so each of us is working on making one to potentially be included. Because they range in time from 30 seconds to 1 minute, we potentially have room for up to 20 spots.
On a different note, I am looking forward to today! Our class is Sports News 2 with WFSB's Joe Zone. During our last class with him, he gave us all four stories off the then-current AP wire. Our assignment was to take those stories and re-write them into a 90 second news broadcast giving an average of 20-25 seconds for each story. We will put our stories into the teleprompter and read them on camera. Our 'performance' will be taped so that we can see it and critique it.
