Guest Speaker

 Today in JOU 2100 I arrived once again fashionably late . Today we had a guest speaker, Natalie Pierre  multimedia  sports reporter for the Tallahassee Democrat. The lecture that she gave in class was very informational  but long . One thing that I  took away from the lecture was when she stated  to put our most important  information in the lead for atleast 20 seconds  and finish  the rest of the story in a fast  proficient way.  Pierre discussed  tips on shooting a package. One  of the tips was when interviewing people  if it does not feel like a conversation then do not write it in your script . Also she stated that what helps her when producing packages is to  begin with a  burst of sound something that will possibly draw the viewers attention.  Hopefully I can take these tips I learned and use to my advantage in my  package .
