 Wednesday 27th April 2022 Learning Objective: To evaluate and review our news day project During News Day, I worked on writing the news report and planning it and we did a story on the Little Miss Nobody missing case. My group enjoyed the filming and the interview the most because it was a very fun and interactive experience. My group least enjoyed the editing of the clips we had previously filmed because it was very stressful and quite annoying. I learnt from the experience how to properly write a news report and how to grab the readers attention as well as knowing how to spot a fake story. With the news progress, i learnt that being a news reporter isn't as simple as just reading off a teleprompter its so much more than that. If I was to do it again, what i would do differently is come in on the actual day so i can help with filming, the interview etc.
