Cloning would be nice

This past week was ridiculously busy. We had to do live coverage of our school's Mock Convention. This was my first true live experience. Our news is done live, but we have a teleprompter. Mock Convention was all ad-libbing and working in conjunction with so many other people. It was a little rough at times because we weren't getting very clear signals from the people in the truck as far as what was coming up next so things were a little hectic for awhile, but overall I think things went relatively smoothly.

In addition to all of that I was also involved in Theatre Westminster's production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Opening night was Thursday; so was Mock Convention. So as soon as Midsummer ended I had to run down to the gym, change and get ready to go live in an hour. So it was a little crazy, but things went well. There were times this week where I wish there were two of me so I could get everything done, but it was a nice lesson in time management. And this live opportunity provided great material for a resume.

Don't forget to go and watch your hour on the Mock Convention coverage...you can get a copy from AVS for a mere $2.
