ANSWERS
Lauren works for Fox 5 Atlanta and is the technical director. She works in the control room where she codes the show and puts it on air in the computer program. Lauren chooses the shots, positions the mics, controls the graphics, etc. She always knew she wanted to be this career and graduated college for it. Then, she spent six months looking for a job and got one in Market 200. She’s been working for five and a half years. Lauren says that she loves her job but it can be difficult sometimes because news is different every single day! One of her bigger mistakes was airing a screen of just black…luckily she kept her job is what she said. Lauren also said that the viewers who watch allow her to keep her job. I loved this interview and was very interested because I hadn’t known this job was in the industry! 🙂
