JFresh Newscast Group meeting notes
October 7, 2012
At this meeting, we discussed leadership, themes, story ideas and how we’re planning on producing the newscast.
Leader/Exec. Producer for the group: Jaelynn Grisso
Focus/Themes: the city of Athens (Unseen parts of Athens), opinion section (political? – WATCH – national political won’t be timely because the big election will have been over before the newscast is presented)
Story Ideas: man who runs homeless shelter in Athens has voluntarily lived homeless in multiple different cities across the country, poverty in Athens
Production (ideas that we like)
• Documentary style (like the NY Times soda video
• Use of facts, music/sound effects, graphics, pauses, unique, less of an anchor
• Professional-looking, not rushed and immature
• No major repetition (like the soda example – that was a little much)
• Small group discussion as opposed to two anchors (less typical anchor)
• Coffee shop, campus area, outside, classroom, walking (where to film anchors?)
