Photo: Caught on Camera During Weather

Posted on September 28, 2011 | Leave a comment

During yesterday’s 4 p.m. news we aired a story on newscast bloopers. Of course, one of the bloopers showed people walking in front of cameras who weren’t supposed to be there. Well, guess who accidentally created a blooper of his own right after that story aired? Yep.

I was on the wrong side of the studio for my next shot and the producer got in my ear and told me to move. So I bolted across the studio while Margaret wasn’t on camera…until I got right in front of her. Then, of course, she wrapped her weather and appeared on-camera with me buzzing through her shot.

You’d think I did it on purpose, considering the story that aired right before her weather hit. But no, it was just me being a dope.

WDSU sports anchor Fletcher Mackel and Chief Meteorologist Margaret Orr sent me this picture tonight commemorating my absence. I’ve been out sick two days and I’m hoping against a third tomorrow. This summer cold is brutal.

Behind the Scenes: Ida Coverage

Posted on November 10, 2009 | Leave a comment

Camille Whitworth and Me

We were in storm mode yesterday, spending all day and night covering Tropical Storm Ida. From what I could tell (I was on the set most of the time), we provided a lot more coverage than any other TV station in New Orleans. I’ve covered plenty of tropical storms and hurricanes, but this was my first time working storm coverage with the gang at WDSU. Obviously, they had been through this drill before. It was like a well-oiled machine. The reporters in the field did great work and I felt like we provided excellent news and weather information from the studio. Ida wasn’t a major weather event, but it was a great test run for local parishes; a mild, late-season storm to test safety improvements and protocols put into place since Hurricanes Katrina and Gustav.

Kudos to the WDSU News team on a great job.

Here are a few behind the scenes pics from yesterday’s coverage:
