Section 1 is on the board

Congratulations on recording your first successful newscast.  Room for improvement?  Sure! But you are off to a good start.

writing assignments

Some reminders about your written assignments: every time your section does a newscast, you need to write a critique of it and post it to your blog.  Be sure to comment on your own job performance, as well as the positives and weaknesses of the newscast as a whole.  The critique will always be due the Sunday following the newscast.  The assignment is worth 20 points, and there will be a 10% penalty for every day it is late.  (Meeting deadlines is important in television!)

Section 3's critique of the September 25 news was due Sunday, September 28

Section 1's critique of the Sept. 30 news is due at midnight tonight, Sun., Oct. 5

Section 3's critique of the Oct. 1 news is due at midnight tonight, Sun., October 5

Also, the first movie review must be posted by midnight tonight, Sunday October 5.  This assignment is worth 100 points, with the same 10% penalty per day late policy.  See my September 25 blog entry for more details on this assignment.
