I am so excited!

I am taking a class at the local tv station...its bascially a free class in all things related to production. In this case its tv.
It runs until summer and after that I have to put together a piece that will air on this local station. Its open to anything from something fictional to non fiction/a sitcom/horror or interview. Its all on me along with all the legalities (we already discussed the legalities with using music).

Before I get to that point though I will have to go through and learn each part of production. From sound room to studio...editing/lighting and camera work.

The teacher is an emmy award winning writer from last year. She showed us the magic of what you can do with a bit of creative work/no money and a whole lot of time and patience.

My mind is buzzing with ideas of course!

So next week we start the actually training on all the devices and then I will have a little more knowledge to ask very specific questions.

Anyway, I have to share my excitement because I am sick and tired of being clueless with what I have. I have the ideas I just don't have anything else.

That's awesome! Don't be afraid to ask questions and "get your hands dirty"-there's a huge opportunity for you-go for it!

The thing is, its a rather large class and everyone else in the class is as 'hungry' to learn as I am. They did say each person will learn everything.

To be honest, I was suprised at the various age groups in this class. I was afraid the class would be filled up with eager teenagers. Kids who were all buddies at school and very advanced in technology. No teens at all. In fact the ages ran from mid twenties to early seventies.

You are never too old to learn! Go for it!
