Today I started working on my first two stories with my group, Faith Welch and Lisseth Hernandez. The first story is about the Zuccaire Gallery. The gallery is on campus and currently has an installation centering indigenous culture and language through art. Our assignment was to shoot a video and interview the art director. I filmed the videos using the rules of framing we learned yesterday.
The second story is about the Stony Brook school of nursing’s new simulation center. The school just announced they will be updating their nursing simulation center with new technology and 10 times the area they currently occupy. We interviewed two nurses that have been at Stony Brook for over 30 years. They were both excited to help nursing students learn how to operate state of the art equipment. They explained that it will be helpful to students because it will be a more realistic environment than what they have now.
Additionally, the whole Greene Team held a press conference with Ray Weber who works for New York state Senator Anthony Palumbo. I asked about why the senator wanted to change the common core curriculum.
Today I learned interviewing is very nerve wracking and definitely something I can work on to improve.
