Could you ask for anything better than this beautiful day for Easter?
Today my family and I went to the park across from the Gage Zoo and had a great couple of hours just doing what we pleased. Of course I had to fulfill my commitment on doing my assigned homework for other classes like the rest of us. It is such a relief to have your assignments complete before the weekend is complete. Now that all of this is done, I am going to sleep very well tonight.
Thanks again for tuning in and see you next week.

Log 8 Can you believe it? Really? Wichita State!!!!!!!
With the slowing down of games to produce it seems that lack of things to talk about are amazing. Who would have thought that the Wild Cats and Jayhawks would both lose out only to see our last hope for Kansas to be anchored at Wichita State? I do not know much about theses guys but am cheering for them all the way to the finish. God Bless!
Still working on finishing up the edits for the past few months games along with class room recordings but am looking forward to the new seasons.

Ahhhh! Spring Break! What a wonderful feeling not having to think so much.
And now all of the Washburn Lady Blues are enjoying this break as well seeing how they were defeated in the first playoff game of the finals tournament against Emporia State University. So I guess that when spring break is over, we will be putting all of the production equipment back into storage until Volleyball and Football seasons open up.
I think the hard part here for me is going to be able to find more to write about in the Sports Production field. I am still filming some instructors teaching their classes and doing medical instructional videos about hearts and collapsed veins using Color Doppler radar along with other types of x-ray equipment. Along with this, we were also doing live interviews for Dean candidates. In doing these kinds of things of an everyday basis makes me feel closer to Washburn University as a student and employee. I know that I am very grateful for the Professors at Washburn, for they have gone above and beyond in helping me stay involved and upright through the courses I am taking. Thank You!

This was a very interesting week concerning the Sports Production Crew, just as we are ready to store equipment for the off season the Lady Blues make it to the finals and they decided to hold the playoffs at Lee arena. This set off a whirlwind of events around the campus. These playoffs have never been done here before and since this is new, it was not covered in contracts of who would be, if anyone, producing the game footage. So most of this week was getting prepared to do the games just in case we were needed. That consisted of trying to find enough of the crew to cover eight games in three days over the start of spring break when most people have plans to go somewhere. As the deadline came closer and closer anticipations went high and then died as the call never came to do the production. But, this did make some eyes open up to the fact that this could happen again and if it does we have been told that we would have the privilege of doing the games. So until next year, keep practicing and we will see you on the court.

Well sad to say that the basketball productions for this season have come to a close. And now I have the chance to get caught up on editing and saving the games. It is really interesting to see what you have had the ability to create and then change the areas where you have not done so well when directing. A good feeling comes with the thought of people watching what you have had a part in creating.
We have gathered up all of the equipment and will check it over to make sure it is operational before we store it until the next season of football and volleyball begins. But that does not mean that I have nothing to do till then. We get to do recordings of lots of different kinds of needs as well. Like for in-class recordings or presentations and things like this that can't be accessed easily or often. And doing this, I get to learn as it goes on many different subjects. To me this is a win win situation.

Welcome back to Sports Production!
It has been an interesting ride to say the least in the basketball frenzy. The last home game for the Lady Blues and Washburn Icabods was played out last Saturday in Lee Arena. The normal crew that does the sports production for Washburn was out ranked by the Niles Media Crew from Kansas City who produced both games back to back live on Cox Channel 22. I was honored to be apart of that crew as they needed utility helpers. My job was simple but took a lot of attention through out the night.
The games played last night were physical to say the least. Tempers even flared some during the intense exchanges with the ball. All of our players can be very proud of their hard work and efforts. I am very impressed with the sportsmanship that the our teams displayed even when they were clearly provoked. This makes me proud to be an Icabod.
