For all the technical misfortunes and amateur story packaging that our newsroom suffered in our first two live bulletins - I am proud to say, we have reached the promised land.And i am subjectively tempted to thank everyone involved in making our last bulletin the best.We might not have all been friends in the newsroom but the team effort suggests that we fought together for a common purposes.For the things that brought us together were far greater than the ones that separated us.
We have surely come of age.Remember the days we brought to the newsroom, images that were over-exposed,out of focus,footage that did not match the script,footage that didn't contain GVs,footage that lacked actuality in terms of sound and the list goes on.
For so many days we worked so hard to perfect the technics and today's bulletin is true testimony that nothing is impossible,if the drive is there to learn.
Guest bulletin editors came and offered the best advice available.It was indeed a privilege that we will all live to appreciate.We might not all make it in the industry but the few that will make the grade, have a reason to acknowledge the input by team Horrie(Angus and Brian).
Team Lovell(Arnold,Grant,James) were exceptionally incredible.I remember filming an interview at 2230pm,filming on a Saturday and working in the rain - for my team.It is with regret that we might not live to share the same newsroom again but the legacy will live-on.Our editor Lovell had the patience to work with his team and a lot of our success is due to his man management skills.
Every day felt like special because, we knew what we had to do.
The struggle for perfection will continue after Christmas.
