Junior Journalist: Kyle Chiu

8sian Media TV Anchor Workshop

001 (2)

On October4th 2015 I learned a lot at the 8sian Media as a Lajaja junior journalist. The vice president, Mr. Adam Shiu was nicely introducing how the company functioned correctly. I learned how they set up TV channels in more than a hundred restaurants. The company will pay all the installations. Any profit that they earn will share with the restaurant or the place they put up the TV. They did commercials for spas, too. They already put their TVs in New York, San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Their next target places are Chicago and Houston. They get so many views a month and their TVs are not for home use.

After we listen to Mr Shiu for the introduction, we went to another room and tried to do some recording. We were being told that when they do filming, they do not just keep the camera going. They wait until the “floor manager” to say “3, 2,’’ and point at the speaking person and he or she can start talking and you start to film. When you act you have to speak loud and clear. The “floor manager” needs to wait for the actor to get ready to say his or hers lines. Then he tells the other people to start filming. I was very happy there and I learned a lot at the 8sian Media.
