Third year news day brief

 Hi guys, 

Conference is at 8:30 am. Can you please send your ideas to us on Facebook or email beforehand so we can go check through in more detail during conference. The programme will be 20 mins and we are going to follow the style of Channel 4 News. We are aiming to include live two-ways and packages but we all know the drill by now. 

Roles: 

Beckah - autocue

Mylo - vision mixing

Kelsey - timing and Reuters International footage 

James - sound

Jaak - playout

Kat - presenter

I watched this programme on Channel 4 last night about the real state of the economy and what is going to have to be done to reduce the deficit.

Very informative, if a bit alarming.

Wonderful, beautiful nutters

I was going to pick of the day this, but it's a little off the wall...

On Channel 4's increasingly appealing 4oD I came across an awesome (in the literal, awe-filling sense) series called Daredevils.

It's all about, not to put too fine a point on it, crazy people doing the most extreme sport-endurance type things you can imagine.
