This has been the 4th Ladue View that I have been a part of and definitely one of the most exciting! One aspect that made this Ladue View special for me was that I was able to get my video featured on the program. I think that the uniqueness of the video and the subject matter made it qualify to be featured so it was great being able to have this project that I worked really hard on air with the show.
Another aspect that made this Ladue View unique to me was that it was the first time I had worked a more hidden role rather than anchoring. Even though most roles are hidden that doesn't make them any less important. It was really cool to see the show run from a behind the scenes perspective rather than in front of the camera. I personally worked in the writing room to develop the script for the show. One big thing I learned while working on this upcoming show was the importance of communication and dedication. Everyone was dedicated to doing their job and that made the show run more smoothly than I had ever seen it run before. Communication also played a big role in making that happen because it kept everybody in line. A challenge we faced was working with AJA, our video/graphics player. While the problem wasn't 100% fixed it was solved by working around the problem and making it work. I personally faced a challenge when trying to come up with ideas in the writers room. The solution was and is always to communicate with your collaborators which will help you open up your mind to new possible ideas. I felt the most successful in my job when I came up with ideas that could work well in the show like the idea to have one of the anchors Maxwell leave the stage before his segment aired. My favorite part of recording the show was seeing all the pieces come together so seamlessly. It takes so many people to bring the show to life which can make it difficult for all the pieces to fit. In the future I would love to continue writing or even possibly anchor again but I still want to give opportunities to those who haven't experienced it yet. I think that including more of the student body in the show can encourage more students to watch it. I know that in middle school everyone was looking forward to watching the weekly show because they got to see themselves or their friends. With that being said I believe that it's still important to include different stories that might not be 100% about school or friends. Overall this was an exciting experience that has made me really look forward to this Broadcast class.
