my new job

so i have been workin at KCSG for just over two weeks and they have finally let me start doing stuff on my own.

I have done a lot of video for weather, sports and other news stories so i decided to put some up to prove that i really do work.

here is a video that I took for a protest of a road closure now the one hear you will have to forgive the weird audio on the reporter outside the BLM that is a live shot and i had nothing to do with but the audio being sent via satellite was just awful.

"the video is here"


kinda cool is that the video and interviews i shot was requested by KSL. KSL is a larger television station in northern utah. so my work was on two stations the audio on this one is much better.

I have been doing lots of video and today i will probably going up to Cedar City to meet and interview Mark Eaton. an ex Utah Jazz basketball player. woot. I can ad another to the tally of famous people i have met.

He is over 7'4" so i might come up to his waist. this should be interesting i will have to stand on a table to meet him.

first week out of school and at work

being graduated feels pretty much the same as not being graduated. I started working at KCSG so far I am just shadowing watching how they do everything. I have been doing most of it for the last few years at the college so it is just me learning how they do it. I am pretty sure mostly I will be doing audio on the live broadcast of the news and being photojournalist for the anchors. so pretty much making the anchors look and sound good.

I have been really busy all week all the way up til Saturday when i got up at 6 am to drive 2 hours both ways to record a protest. i sent the story up to KSL in salt lake for their broadcast as well I don't know if they will use it but they asked for it.

so far work is pretty fun and pretty busy.

so busy that I didn't get to really talk to Rachael until Saturday night. she told me she is planning a few trips with friends. I am happy see is getting to see old friends and visit seattle (if she does get to go) but part of me is a bit jealous, st. George can be so boring sometimes.

I am really looking forward to the cruise we get to go on. i have never even been on a boat before. ever. thinking about that is kinda funny. i have never stepped on a boat before. not that i can remember.

so that is my week pretty fun and lots of new things.

lastly I still have a big portion of the ice cream cake Rachael bought me if anyone wants some i can't eat it all by myself.
