Reflection Over First Package



The BYOD Deviceless package ended up becoming very well developed. The story being portrayed was the conflicts that drove through the new BYOD idea. Quen and I told a story, as well as gathered some great B-roll, while trying to deliver a message. I thought we drove the point home in Mr. Skoglund's interview with his "there will always be problems" quote. It gave the package the right spark.



I feel as if my first package started out a little shaky due to faulting audio. My first interview became much like a coaching process, as if I had to almost give Miles certain quotes to say on camera. Trying to extract information from a kid who's not well spoken isn't always the easiest. This just goes to show the selection process in finding an interviewee is vital. Also we lacked the proper amount of b-roll as we had to get some late. The quality, however, was done very well.



Next package, a proper interviewee will be extremely important and finding someone who is very personable. We as journalists need someone who will have a conversation and let their ideas flow of their tongue. These pieces create the best interviews and the attention to detail is critical. Something as small as what happened between meals can create and spark huge interest in your viewers. The next package will consist of a variety of different shots in the interviews as well as picture quality. People love to see color.
