Pitches, Scripts, and Scroutlines
Above is a document of pitches that other juniors and I created before pitching ideas to our producers. We researched b-roll ideas, interviewees, and other ideas before we started to create each segment.
This is the script for the Long Form Story on the Brain Drain created by Maya Freedman, Annalise Kirk, and me. I was the writer and typed everything into script format for easy reading.
The Scroutline above includes every word and visual that appeared in the Youth Legislature segment I created. My group and I also worked on the questions.
Research
Before writing the script for Jaguar News Network's Long form Story, Mississippi Forever, I researched and brainstormed data and statistics to include. I wanted to gather as much information on the topic of the Brain Drain as possible. To do this, I read many articles and took parts of said articles that stood out to me. Attached is a copy of the work I prepared before writing. This helped the writing process speed up!
