Thanks for signing up. I am glad to see such great interest in Wikinews just because of this. We currently need to work on several things...and the main part is an opener for Wikinews video broadcasts...If you take a look at the wikinews video page you will see everything you need to know...Would you be interested in the graphics part of the opener? We do need anchors...so glad you can help there too :) DragonFire1024 10:16, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anchor[edit]

Hey LostProphyt!

I see you have filled out the form to become an anchor newsreader, thanks for that!

Just a few questions which may help us, if you could reply to them at my talk page, I would really appreciate it. Although, for most of these, we would like to have a "yes" as a response, your answer won't affect if you are selected (you will almost definately will be) it is simply to fin out if you have access to certain facilities to see what roles you could be involved in

1) Do you have access to a high quality or a HD (High Definition) camera?

2) Do you have access to a 16:9 (Widescreen) camera?

3) Do you have access to a blue / green screen?

4) Which (if any) graphics / editing programs do you knoe?

5) Which O/S's do you have access to?

6) If you are selected, would you mind interviewing people?

7) If so, would you rather be an anchor or, be an on field reporter?

8) Are there any days you are / are not available to interview someone?

9) Which sity / suburb are you in (optioinal - this will allow us to make further decisions)

I would really appreciate it if you answer these questions as they will allow us to get back to you and assign you a task.
