I started a show called Meet South Florida to highlight the individuals who contribute to the South Florida community while introducing viewers to the unique businesses, services and events it offers.

Naturally, I faced obstacles and several humorous instances while learning the ins and outs of developing and filming a show. I’m still an amateur and believe I always will be, but every time an obstacle arises, I feel the need to share it with someone.

It was suggested to me to share my lessons so here goes.

I’ve been learning about about iMovie, microphones, directing and even trying to express my amateur vision to a very patient and professional video editor. I’m also feeling like a journalist again! Before becoming a publicist, I was journalist, but picking my stories was easy, I chose anything I liked and covered it. I never felt like I needed to be pitched. Now, however, I feel that with Meet South Florida, I need to be a little more selective so I’m expected to be sold on a certain interview. I feel that if nothing else comes out of this show, I’ll come out a better publicist  after being on the receiving side of these pitches.

I’ll be sharing any and everything I learn. So please be patient with me and know that advice is always welcome.
