See Blog Shoot - Thanks WKRN!


paul_wkrn.jpg
About twenty Nashville area bloggers gathered today at Nashville's ABC television affiliate, WKRN, for some hands-on training in shooting video for news. Nashville area bloggers are not to be confused with the professionals who will soon assume video journalist roles at the station...but this session certainly provided a taste of what WKRN's innovative approach to news gathering will look like. Here is a glimpse of what today was all about...time allowing, a video of the event may follow:

Terry Heaton has posted several images from the instruction session as well as images from the field assignment (Be sure to wish Terry a Happy Birthday).

Late Update: Rex Hammond, Blake Wylie, and Tim Morgan have additional images posted. All that green screen stuff in the pictures is for possible marketing of the Nashville is Talking blog... let's hope WKRN can make us all look brilliant. By the by, I believe that Aunt B of Tiny Cat Pants fame learned the most...I give her a gold star!
