when i'm asked "what are you majoring in?" i naturally reply "broadcast journalism", then i seem to ALWAYS get "oh you want to read the news every evening".......... not exactly. i'm not interested in being an anchor AT ALL. all anchors are, are pretty faces that can read a prompter and take direction. i want to be the person behind the camera giving them those directions. my dream is to either direct a news show or produce. i want to be the person running around all stressed out trying to put the show together. i love being able to make decisions and giving orders. i'm kind of a bossy person so the position of director/producer would just come naturally for me. whenever i watch the movie "The Ugly Truth" i see Katherine Heigal's character at her producing job and think "thats going to be me." and now this new movie is come out, its called "Morning Glory". its about a female television producer who is in charge of reviving a failing TV news show. i'm definitely going to have to go see it.
i'm totally ok with starting out as a camera person or stage hand. i would also love to sometime during my broadcasting career get the opportunity to make packages to air on the news. i REALLY enjoy getting to go out and create a story and getting to interview people. its exciting getting to show people and say "yeah, i made that." but hopefully i eventually make my way up to the top where i want to be.
