Lately, life as we know it has slowly been dwindling. There has been a spell cast on the world and everything is pretty much in shambles. Starting with my friend getting hit by a car, our apartment being infested with roaches and stressing to find a house for next year… I think you get what I am trying to say. I must note those issues are only the tip of the iceberg. It’s that time of year when people randomly blurt out, “I am ready to go home for Thanksgiving” while they are knee deep in work at the library during an eight hour cram sesh. I have had my fair share of roaches, midterms and power outings this semester and I too fall into the category of people who randomly proclaim their readiness to return home.
Now to the part of the blog where I connect it to class: I struggled through the broadcast take home assignment and completed it. Although I was overwhelmed at first, I was eventually able to finish the broadcast script with help from my notes and the sample youtube video. I am still confused as to why it has to be in all caps. Personally, I think it is harder to read that way. Additionally, I want to get more familiar and comfortable with the terminology such as “super” so I can easily integrate it into the script. I believe I have perfected the VOSOT. I look forward to getting better at broadcast script writing because it is a unique skill to have and could potentially set me apart from people applying for the same job.
