Blogging, Voiceovers and More

Today in J198 we discussed blogging in more detail. I have to admit, it gave the sudden urge to go out and create some viral blog that people everywhere would read...but then I got back to my laptop to start typing and realized that I really don't have anything interesting to say.

However, I can talk about this week in Multimedia Reporting for me. Right now, I'm going to go through my blog and kind of vamp it up with the suggestions we talked about in class. Then, I'm going to pick my subject for our interview assignment and get to work on that. We have to interview someone about something they like to do, and get accompanying b-roll of them doing it. Seeing as how this is due on Wednesday and I have an extremely busy week ahead of me, I am probably going to be forced to do something boring like "my roommate Kate likes to do engineering homework...watch her plug equations into her calculator...ooooh very exciting!" Either way, we are going to take the sound of the interview and run it continuously on the track while splicing the video to cut between the interview footage and the b-roll. For some crazy reason, cutaway footage from interviews like this is my favorite part of video production, so I am very excited to get started!
