Future of Work

While I was in eighth grade, students were given an option to become a part of the school's news program, TV. 271. Every morning the class would report on school news, weather and sometimes videos we made would be on air. There was a lot of work put into interviewing staff and students, shooting the scenes and editing the video. As a class we would take turns being behind the scenes, reporting weather and being one of the three news anchors. As we were live on the air there would be malfunctions in the equipment or video software so we were taught to think on our feet to avoid dead air time.  This experience helped me prepare for my future in business by showing me how to effectively communicate with my peers and improve my time management skills as I became more comfortable with the technology that was being introduced.
