Challenge: Stand-ups

Stand-ups are an important part of reporting a news story. A good stand-up accomplishes a couple of things:

1. It draws in the audience with a unique hook.
2. It sets the stage for what is to come in the package.
3. It give the reporter face time.

We have not performed stand-ups on ONW...NOW! before. We will from now on.

I want you to concentrate on three types of stand-ups.

1. Demonstration
2. Information
3. Participation

Here are great videos that describe how to do a stand-up. Watch them and take notes:
