TV Sports Broadcasting: Intro to Documentaries
Lesson Outline
Since Cam made it through the local qualifying for the US Open his documentary assignment will be: "The History of Amateurs at the US Open Golf Tournament". Cam immediately embraced the concept, we walked through the basic research sources plus my general knowledge of Bobby Jones & others through the years. Add his curiosity and Cameron immediately knocked out 3 paragraphs to start the documentary. I also suggested choosing an Angle or theme such as "Stars are Born" since this year's US Open Golf Championship is in LA near Hollywood.

Lesson Comments
Cameron was remote via Teams today and was very impressive. Naturally, I picked a topic for the documentary which he gravitated to and I hoped he could better appreciate his journey with the working knowledge of past Amateur greats. Cam quickly search through wiki & google as guided and began writing without much prompting. We'll continue and this is likely the final assignment of the year. Documentary work is very time consuming. My plan is to have him complete to written portion by the end of semester. I always tell him to write with video in mind.
