final report

In news media practicum, I've learned a lot about the broadcast industry. I've learned that it is always changing and new technologies are constantly influencing the face of broadcasting. I've also learned how to run the audio board for the studio, as well as how to properly cover a basketball game. This includes: setting up the tripod so it is level, attaching the camera to the tripod, getting the proper shot. I was also taught how to properly use the camera, including how to change the tape and battery as well as how to take down all the equipment after using it. I learned the inner workings of the studio and how to properly run a sports show production. I have also learned how procrastination is very detrimental in this field. Making deadlines and time management is extremely important in this field and I have come to realize how soon deadlines approach even though they seem distant. I feel that even after my first semester, I am more knowledgable in my field of study and well on my way to taking lessons learned in the classroom and hands-on in the field and in the studio and using them for internships and even my career in the future.
