I, Victoria Reed, worked as a reporter at UNF Spinnaker News. It was my responsibility to complete stories each week to be published on the company’s website. I filmed and edited news stories, and I took photos to accompany news stories. My job required me to setup interviews, conduct interviews, travel to different locations for interviews, and conduct research. I was responsible for following the format of a professional news story. I also had the opportunity to write a story for the lifestyle column of the company’s website. I challenged myself by filming and editing some of my stories. Below are links to my stories:
