Writing for Television

You will need to cover two events for our next speech assignments. They can be concerts, fairs, games, etc... or your story can focus on a feature, or lighter subject... such as a person of interest, someone who does something interesting or incredible.

For example:
A news story would be covering a traffic accident.
A feature story would be a women who cuts her hair and donates it to 'Locks of Love.'

Be sure they interesting and relevant.

Each of your stories need to be 45 seconds to one minute long. You need to make sure you fit all pertinent facts into your story, easier said than done with your time constraint.

Each story needs to be typed and double spaced when you turn in your copy to me.

If you want your stories entered into the teleprompter (which I highly recommend), you must EMAIL THEM TO ME NO LATER THAN THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 6TH. If you do not email them to me, you will be reading your copy from your paper.
