Sessions with Kami

Overview

One of the other ONW students, Kami Gibson, does a segment where she takes different people from around the school who have interesting talents, and films them doing what they do. We've filmed painters, singers, rappers, and many other things. My role in her projects has been that sometimes I've filmed and other times I've been there as an "Audience Member" where we react to the person being filmed, and ask them questions.

Overall

I think that this segment is interesting and it is cool seeing other students from ONW and their interesting hobbies.

In this segment we filmed a kid who could sing and play the guitar. My role was to hold one of the cameras in order to get different angles and shots.

Football Games

Overview

When the Olathe Northwest football team plays at home, we go out and actually put on a live stream, with announcers and everything. Iv'e had a couple of different jobs during these productions, I ran the tricaster, where I had to choose all of the shots that were being filmed and tell the camera people what shots to film. I also ran the scoreboard at the games for the stream, so the score that you saw over the computer was me running it.

Overall

It took a little learning but I think that the streams are interesting and a really cool idea. I also think that the commentators we have do a very good job talking the whole time, and have a very good knowledge in the sport and both teams that are playing.

Here is just an overview of one of the football games that I went to against Lawrence High.

End of Season Tennis Recap

The Lady Ravens’ tennis team had a tough season, finishing 11th of 12 in the Sunflower league.

While the season might not have been the best, Coach Oberhelman appreciates the effort his team put in, especially from senior, Annemarie Boeh.

Oberhelman appreciates how she came back from being very ill and worked very hard to be able to play again. Oberhelman also has hopes for next season, saying that they have some younger kids coming in who are excited to play for the Ravens’ tennis team, and thinks that they will be successful in years to come.

ONW NOW #3

Overview

In this week's edition of ONW NOW, we feature a Talented artist, Gameday Northwest, and The Conner Invasion.

Overall

I think that this week's edition was very good, the stories were good and they all had good shots and were interesting. I think we are improving on the sound every week and our anchors are getting better at being comfortable in front of all the cameras.

ONW NOW #2

Overview

In this week's edition of ONW NOW, we feature the Foreign students, Questions from the Freshman, Perfect ACT Scores, And more.

Overall

I think that this week's edition was good, I thought that the stories were alright and the new "Sessions" segment is pretty cool because we get to see students around Northwest and their interesting talents. I still think the sound needs improvement but it's getting better.

ONW NOW #1

Overview

In this week's edition of ONW NOW, we feature behind the scenes of the all school musical, locker shortages, astronomy class, Gameday Northwest, and more.

Overall

I think that the stories we used were good, they were all interesting and had good shots. The show could've improved with the sound quality and the fluency of the the anchors, but for the first edition it was pretty good.

Tennis vs Aquinas

Overview

In this video, I went out and filmed the Girl's Tennis match against Saint Thomas Aquinas. This was the first video project I did, and I really didn't know what kind of shots were necessary to put together a good story.  I didn't really like this video because the shots weren't very interesting and overall I just don't think it's very good.

What I learned 

I learned that a variety of shots are key to making the story interesting, and it's important to have interviews, so you can add to the story and make it better.

Overall

 I didn't really like this video because the shots weren't very interesting and overall I just don't think it's very good. 

This was the video that I filmed and then other people helped edit the whole thing.
