shockwhy was he dead?
CSI said they found prescription meds on him, they probably made him drowsy, he fell backwards, hit his head on a metal fence, became afixiated; it was actually the blow to the head that killed him.
When I video'd him, I only shot his feet, because we are not allowed to show entire dead bodies on tv. But this other guy from another tv station totally got vid of the dead guy. I was like, "Why bother, you can't use that footage." And then, he's all, "Yeah, well a dead body is a dead body." Whatever that meant. I figure, why waste the time.
But, once we found out the death wasn't caused by any suspicious circumstances, we all left. We as in, myself and five other photographers from other news stations. We never even ran the story.

is there schooling for that, becuase i have thought about getting into that kind of stuff was he naked? shock
Yeah, there is schooling for it, but I've worked with other photogs who never even went to college. It's more of craft or a trade than anything else. But yeah, if you take Broadcast Journalism, you can focus on photography if you want. Technically I'm considered a photojournalist, but to me, 'photojournalist' sound to professional, and I don't want to come off as that. 😄

filmi'm not one for doing the news directing, i've worked with all the soundboard crap and those different camera's on a live feed before, not my kind of stuff
Yeah, then don't go to journalism school. Go to film school, make a sweet short film that gets you noticed, win some awards, then your phone will be ringing off the hook. 😉
