Professor Greenawalt, for some reason I don't know how to respond to your comment so I'll just do it on this post. Unfortunately the station did not use that video package for anything serious or live for that matter, but it's going to be great for my reel when I'm applying for photojournalism jobs.
Anyway, this week was rather slow, mainly because I didn't get to go in Sunday night to put together my package because of the poor weather conditions.
But on Friday from 10-6 I got to work with the political reporter that typically goes to the capital to cover politics, laws being passed, etc. This week there was much discussion about privatizing the selling of liquor, but I doubt the house will pass it because Tom Wolf explicitly said he would veto it in it's present form. But we got to roam the capital building - which may I add is beautiful - for the better part of 3 hours before getting any concrete interviews and bites.
After that, we headed back to the station to put together (well, Eric put the video package together, I watched) the video package and have it ready for the 6:00 news. Unfortunately there's not much else that went on this week during my internship. I hope that is enough information. I'm sorry that I couldn't post more as there wasn't much that happened this week.
