The Best Show

I have seen many Thursday nights dedicated to "the County Line"(Westminster's News Program). Every Thursday at 7:30have pm many Broadcasting students gather to produce our news program. We have been doing the show for many years and we a pretty set pattern down. There is always room for improvement of course but this last show i think was absolutely perfect, or at least very close to it. It all started off with the packages. They were strong and clear and overall just well put together. The readers we used this week were interesting and relevant to the community I thought as well. Maybe it was a just a good week for the news world, I'm not sure but everything just kinda fell in our laps last week. One of the bigger parts of the show that worked outstandingly well was the producing. One of my friends was producing last week and it was his first time. He was a bit nervous but i was impressed with that work that he did. He utilized his AP's and made sure that everyone was on track with stories throughout the week. He put a nice rundown together for the crew to follow for the show. The crew was a nice conglomerate of people as well. I was one for the last ones to come in so I ended up as prompter girl but everyone seemed to do there job well. The floor director cued people on time. The cameras were smooth and did have any problem moving to there spots ans such. The audio went well. Even sports went smoothly! No stalls or graphic problems or anythign I was quite happy with it. The anchors looked and spoke wonderfully. Of all the shows to go very well i was glad that it was our last one for the year. Now only was it our last show but it was also the senior send off show which was nice. We have such great talent graduating from here. If I can do half as well as them next year then I will feel like I have accomplished something. There was one slight problem as I recall at the moment. There was a slide show of the seniors and for some reason the sound did get on air. We had it in the studio but the audience couldn't get hear it. I Would really like to know how that happened. But either way it was a wonderful show!
