Weekly Reflection (October 22 - 26)

This week was ______________________!

What is the best thing about this week? What skunked this week?

How do you feel after viewing your third broadcast?After viewing the show today, what were you most proud of? Least proud of?

What did your peers have to say? Watching your peers see the broadcast, what did they react well to?

What technical issues did you note in today’s broadcast?

What stood out the most in today’s broadcast?

Was there a talking head this week? If so, who was it?


SERIOUS Stuff:

The facts -
One of your typical shows has 3-4 segments, 1 feature and the opening & closing, today’s show had 4 features, 3 commercials, Kevin's birthday tribute and the opening & closing.
There were 9 items to critique (I am not including Kevin’s b-day tribute)

The questions –
Was this change because the show was a “RamTV Special”?
….Halloween Special vs. typical RamTV show

Was quantity substituted for quality? Is this important to consider in all shows?

Was the show highly entertaining or did it fall short?

Not a lot of written feedback in critiques this week….wonder why? What are your thoughts?

Where were the other staff interviews?

Was there a script for the Ben Franklin clip? Was this polished?

A Staff Member asked me – “What was Elizabeth saying?” “I didn’t get it.”
This was a really cool moment in the show’s feature – did we sell it?
Give me your thoughts on her comment.


Kudos:

To E.B. & Caleb who went the distance yesterday – they stayed after school and finished the show. Much hanks to them! Ms. L loved the note that was left on the iMac! ROFLMBO! (booty…yea, I went there)

To 12 for pulling off your first RamTV Special

To Mr. SCAD…we are proud of you, even in your moment of disbelief!

To Mack who is assisting the senior Engineering class with their Apple video projects

To Jon for effort beyond the typical, did ­you notice?

To Harli for the awesome special effects found and featured in today’s show

To Cristy & Melissa who are spearheading yet another one of Ms. L’s projects

To Trey (& Mack) for more on location shooting (nice work) I am really starting to wonder if they like it here!?

To Alex for always being a team player and liking the mundane stuff AND for putting up with Mr. SCAD (jk)

And last but not least…
To the Courtney’s for their beautiful birthday tribute to Boots

This list started with EB & Caleb who deserved hanks and then I started to think of each of my 12…nothing here was typed with a pause…yousguys rock!

<3, Ms. L
