Slide show lesson

Last friday I had the privilege of creating a slideshow for KOMU about a community center in midtown Columbia with a questionable future. Surprisingly, I was allowed creative freedom to edit and write the story how I wanted. I had assumed, in a real newsroom, editors breathed down the necks of reporters to steer projects in directions to suit his or herself. Not the case; I finished and then simply received some advise and a few mistakes pointed out. All in all, a good time - I think I might do it again next Friday.
