1619 Project, docuseries episode 3 "Music." Pre- and post-watch discussions; then the selection of a research subject/figure for this week's spotlight into Black history.
Cameron was remote today and not live on Teams. Instruction included continue writing his Sports Feature Story: “All Access Caddy”. I played on the theme of today’s date (two three/two three) as a reminder of key elements he must include two things at least three times for this feature story: a) SOT (Sound on Tape) sound bites from his dad b) NAT SND (Natural Sound) golf swing swoosh, Dad interaction with gallery/autographs and 1st Tee name announcer “From Sea Pines, Georgia….Mr. Matt Kutchar” Assignment: build those elements into your story.

Lesson Comments
Cameron's return to in-person only lasted two days of sports broadcasting sessions but I'm Pinch-Hitting for a teacher out of Monday 2/9 so hopefully Cam will be in person and we'll see if he incorporated the two-three's from Friday.
*BTW, I tried a few times Friday to file these summations but I'm guessing the internet issues remain on-going. Today, Saturday 2/4 it worked fine. Thanks!

Also reviewed “Folds of Honor” Budweiser feature including PGA Ricky Fowler.
Cameron started writing his feature story “All Access Caddy” by taking viewers behind the scenes where only PGA pros and caddy are allowed. Video & Audio TV Scripting-

Lesson Comments
Cameron could not find the feature story we started prior to Christmas break so we started a new feature story: ALL ACCESS CADDY--the behind the scenes look at his day as his Dad's Caddy and take viewers where they never get to see. Cameron showed no signs of problems reading or writing each sentence as we build this story & think of images / video for the script.
Cam was in-person and responded with engagement. We got started on a new feature story, with an angle of his choosing re: Cam being a Caddy for his Dad Kutchar .
