Capstone Ideas

It has been tough choosing a Capstone idea, but I think I have come up with something that will not only be challenging, but it should be fun to do and it should really help me in my career.  I am passionate about broadcasting whether it be television or radio and that is what type of job I would like to pursue once I graduate.  The idea I had for my Capstone is producing, editing, anchoring, and every other aspect behind a news show.  I was thinking about creating a half an hour show where I am involved with every part of the show.  I did an internship at a new station so I have some experience doing this kind of stuff, but I want to be able to be better at every aspect of a news station.  I will have to come up with an idea for my show, which I was thinking of Shepherdstown news specifically because I like this town and what goes on it.  I would like to do a wide variety of stories from sports to town issues.  Having a few months to do this will be nice because I am sure that there will be stories that come about.  Once I figure out which stories I will be doing it will be important for me to get B role for the stories and decide whether to do a VO or a VOSOT.  Another aspect I would like to do is create some commercials.  This will also be a challenge because I would like to make a commercial/s that is of high quality and something you would see on television.  So all in all I would be doing every thing for this news show and I hope it can be successful so I can use in my portfolio.
