Broadcast sucks
Yesterday my group members and I went to Queen's Park to cover the college & university students protesting tuition fees (article & video) for our first field report and it was ridiculous.
It started around 10 a.m. for Ryerson students at Lake Devo and then everyone marched up to Queen's Park for 1 p.m., but we couldn't get there till about 2 p.m. It honestly took us 10 or 15 minutes just to get the camera on the tripod before we could even start filming. The white balancing wouldn't work because it was too bright, and within minutes our hands were freezing because it was absolutely freezing and really windy.
We didn't get a lot of footage, but considering our technical difficulties and the fact that we have no idea what we're doing ... it should be okay. We'll try and get some interviews on Monday before we edit and put it all together.
For real, though, broadcast sucks. My prof is incompetent and I feel like we're just thrown in there to figure things out on our own.
I can't wait until this year is over!
Me and my kitty.
Me and the boyf.
Me and the girls at the incredible Justin Timberlake show!
Me freezing my ass off outside on a "romantic" walk.
Ron's an excellent photographer.
Heart.
lmao.
He likes to tickle me.
Calm and chaos.
I think he's a woman at heart.
