This project was one of the coolest and most fun in school project I've ever worked on. In this assignment we were given the job to create a two minute long newscast with six stories with varying topics. Through this assignment we learned how to write like we would read the news (which is much more difficult then it seems) and put it into script format. Along with creating a script we also learned how to read off of the teleprompter and project our voices so we wouldn't look like robots. After learning all of this we went through a series of trials in which we learned that reading the news is not as easy as it looks. I especially learned that good tempo in reading can make or break the way it sounds. Another thing that I could improve on is reading off of the teleprompter more towards the center so it won't look like I'm looking down. This looking down broke my connection with my audience and also caused me to look tired. A final thing that I could improve on is my facial expressions when I am not reading. The reason being is because I did not look happy to be on camera and it distracted from the story being told. Besides all of this I thought I did a good job on the project and I know that it is one I won't be forgetting anytime soon
