Dodging through traffic as early as 8 o' clock in the morning may not be listed as a fun activity, but here at South Carolina State University students living in Campus Corner and University Village view it as normal daily task. Students and community members will be one step closer to relief as a Department of Transportation worker says, the span of the pedestrian bridge will be laid down Friday night .

In class we got into groups and practiced a live production using  the TriCaster system. "SCSU Sound and Sight", where  host  Craishaud Foulks   and  Stephen Wells  disccus the topic of movies and music allow me as the direct, with assistance from  Jessica Jackson . Directing meant that I was  to inform our camera man Terrance where to point and where to focus in order to create a smooth production. Overall I enjoyed with project and hope to have similar experiences in the Broadcasting department  in the future.

Today in BC-320 I  was able to experience how it feels to be behind the control broad known as, the  TriCaster . With the help of my professor, Mr.Harwood and my fellow Bulldogs, I was able to excel at doing a fairly well job transitioning between cameras while bring up subtitles. I enjoyed being able to work in this group as well as being put under pressure while recording a live performance. In the near, future I hope to reuse this information retaining what I have learned and using it in the workforce.
