Faculty feedback:

Directing Major Market TV News is an outstanding addition to our TV production classes. It is a good introductory tool for students who have never worked in a studio. Production values in the video are high and the use of split screens is particularly effective in helping students understand multiple actions in a live production.
-- Greg Luft, Associate Professor, Colorado State University

I highly recommend Directing Major Market TV News for production classes and TV news classes at all levels.
