Dynamic News Production Coordinator with proven expertise at WMTW Channel 8, excelling in high-pressure environments. Adept at real-time decision-making and effective communication, I successfully led teams during breaking news coverage and specialty shows. A quick learner with strong leadership skills, I ensure seamless collaboration between departments to achieve broadcast excellence. I am sure that all these skills will transfer well into other fields of work.
My daily duties included coordinating between the News and Production departments, making sure we could accommodate the vision for the newscasts. During the newscasts I was responsible for calling out on headset commands, setting up and taking effects on the directing switcher, cue up and play our video clips and graphics. I would also have to adjust to changes in real time and communicate them to everyone on headset. Working with both departments on specialty shows such as "Sports Blitz" and "Total Maine", political debates and election newscasts as well as weather cutins and continuous breaking news coverage.
My daily responsibilities were to call out commands on headset and set up effects on the directing switch. Working with the News department and keeping everyone on the same page. Quickly adjusting to changes and communicating them quickly and clearly.
