Welcome to the PIT List!

I'm a network field producer who also worked in local tv as a line producer and field producer. Over the years, I have had the great fortune to work with super people. Now I'd like to pass along what I know and rant a tad.

Walk and talk

I love walk and talks. Here is a tip for your reporters. Our staff photographer says the reporter should never be walking backwards. Only the photog does. And, he says, it helps to run through what you are going to do with your photog prior to them coming to you live.

Walk and Talks are more engaging than stand-ups... A reporter's interaction with his/her environment adds a new dimension to the story.
