Another Week Closer to Graduation!

I finally figured out the topic of my final project!  Since living in a small town all my life (my hometown is no bigger than my college town) I decided to do a fun feature of things to do and people to meet in such small areas.  I know how hard it is to find something to do every weekend and sometimes during the week when you don’t have homework to do.  There are little stores to be visited that only locals know and it’s fun to go there.  The owners are usually there and you get to hear their backgrounds and their life stories.  You get to find things to do that you wouldn’t normally do like going hang gliding.  For this town you only have to drive 20 minutes away to experience the falling.  Plus, since we are on a college campus we do have guest speakers who are really interesting to go see so we can do a little profile on them and learn about their profession and why they are considered speakers.

Now that I have my format for my show I need to start picking out stories and writing scripts.  I usually write news stories for radio news and I can make packages but when it comes to writing intros for my stories that’s not something I’m used to so I had to look for some back up.    When writing the intro it’s all about teases.  You want to give the background of the story but you don’t want to give the story up.  You want to give a lot of information but you want the package to tell the actual story.  So for the next week I’m gonna be writing intros for packages.  I already have several stories lined up for my final project.  I’m so excited…I can hardly wait!
