Today some of us went and competed while others went and watched breakout sessions. The sessions were very informative. I went to about six of the sessions and took notes in every one. These may not have been very fun but they were definitely very informative. The first one that I went to was about editing. It gave you all of these techniques to make your video flow a lot better. I then went to a session with Andrew Jenks where he talked about the basics of filming. The next two sessions I went to were about writing a better story for journalism. An example of the advice they gave was that viewers want to hear the story, not you, so try to talk as little as possible. The fifth breakout session that I watched was about improving your videos through the little things, like casting a shadow or being too close to your subject. The final one that I went to was about what types of mics you should use and for what. After the breakout sessions we ate dinner which was chicken Alfredo. We the proceeded to the grand hall where we watched the excellence awards which took a very long time. We then went to bed.
