I’m a bit concerned about our main objective in coming here. It seems that we’ve broken up into teams with separate ideas and interests, and somehow, we’re supposed to come up with a legitimate cohesive hour-long program for T.V. I must say - I don’t think we’re well-equipped to deliver such a product.
My team decided to do a segment on navigating the streets of Florence via the piazzas. These piazzas are reference points all over Florence. They are popular meeting places, and each one has it’s own face or character.
We spent all afternoon getting our B-roll footage. This is the footage that news anchors cut to after they finish their narration or summary of the story. We shot all of the Piazzas near the main square, and I hope to take a trip to Piazza di Michelangelo next week. This location should give us beautiful shots of Florence, as it sits on top of a hill on our side of the Arno. I was told to sit at the piazza and enjoy a cup of gelato, which, by the way, is amazing here.
