FSU vs. BYU

This past weekend was my first time filming a college football game. My partner and I went to the FSU and BYU game. Since this was my first game and after we had our argument Kyle met me out there and showed my what to look for, what plays to film, to look for interesting fans in the stands, fans with Christian Ponder's number on etc. I felt really confident after Kyle helped me guided me on what to film. I was very nervous at first but after the 2nd quarter I was walking around the field and capturing all sorts of stuff. I was very happy that Kyle helped me... This is what I wanted him to do at the Samford game.

FSU vs. Boston College

Yesterday I had to film the FSU and Boston College football game. Yesterday was the hottest game I've ever had to film at. I was expecting the weather to be cold, I was definitely wrong. The was beaming and I was sweating. I actually went to the game with a classmate Rachel Moore and Jabari Jackson. I ended up meeting Jarabi at his house and we parked Jabari's car at Rachel's which was about a 10 min walk from the FSU stadium.
    This was a good game FSU won 24-19. I was finally getting the hang of what my partner wanted, following the plays, more steady with the camera, and walking the field without being afraid of getting in the way of the ball. Around the 3rd quarter Kyle was able to make it to the game but I had to leave as soon as he go there. I called for a ride because my car was parked at Jabari's house on High Rd. Unfortunately, my phone died and I waited for my ride to come for an hour. So I had to walk all the way from Lake Bradford to High Rd. That was the worst day of filming.
