Throughout the summer, interns gained hands-on experience, asking questions and learning through practice alongside KSAT veterans.
– This video is just a sample of the skills KSAT interns learned over the summer. They put their scriptwriting, video-editing, and on-camera skills into practice, working as a team to showcase their newfound knowledge and express their gratitude to the KSAT team. A special shout-out to Joy Presley, Mario Orellana, Ken Huizar, Ivan Herrera, Luis Cienfuegos, and Rooney.
While shadowing was a major part of news interns’ daily routine, they also helped with writing scripts and web stories, filming and providing feedback. Meanwhile, in the weather department, the main focus was forecasting, making graphics, practicing on the green screen and writing articles. Learning how to share complicated technical information in easy-to-understand ways for audiences is key to this role.
Not only did interns practice behind the scenes, they also got the opportunity to be on camera. Practicing stand-ups, interviews and social media content helped build their resumes and confidence.“I am from North Carolina but spent this summer in Texas as an intern with the KSAT Weather Authority team. After this, I will enter my senior year as a Meteorology major at Texas A&M University.
As essential as the learning was to the internship, the KSAT family truly makes this program what it is.Copyright 2024 by KSAT - All rights reserved.Isabel Lara is a fellow of the Emma Bowen Foundation.
