Video darn near killed the radio newspaper star citizen-journalism coordinator
Two nights ago I went out with staff writer Allison Perkins to shoot video for a multimedia presentation we hope to create, tied to a story she's writing. I don't want to steal her thunder, so to speak, so I'll just say that the sound was muddy, the lighting borderline, the shooting angles tightly constrained and the weather atrocious -- all conditions that actually were appropriate to the subject, even if I might have gotten pneumonia out of the deal. (The subjects, I should add, were cooperative and charming.)
Schedules permitting, we'll edit the video today and hope to have the whole thing ready to go next weekend. Stay tuned.
