The faces behind the morning announcements
A behind the scenes look at the students who head the school’s digital media morning announcements.
Though each episode of the announcements is about five minutes long, anchors Ella Robinson and Tanaj Kinchen are filmed anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes in case of retakes.
The video production three class is made up of dedicated juniors and seniors who are responsible for writing, directing and editing the biweekly morning announcements.
Under the tutelage of Tom McCluskey, students get a chance to use advanced equipment like a professional teleprompter and the Cannon C70.
The morning announcements are streamed via the school’s YouTube channel at 10:30 AM on Mondays and Fridays
