Shoot Fake Stand Ups

WTKR (Norfolk) Reporter Penny Kmitt posted advice to people looking to get into TV news and she basically says you need to fake it to make it.

Her advice is to have your friends shoot fake stand-ups on your iPhone because no one will know the difference.

I wish she would have given advice like, staying on top of current events, and understanding how government works on both the local and national level. Work on your writing, learn how to file an FOI, and learn how to write to video.

Or, just shoot fake stand-ups on your phone.

@pennylikeacoin Replying to @ambiecam22 this is just my outlook :) good luck to all the newsies starting out 🫶🏻 #newsreporter ♬ Roxanne - Instrumental - Califa Azul
