As some know, I was offered an opportunity to head down to Los Angeles and participate in a Sportscasters Conference. I’m really excited about the opportunity because it is the next step for me as I pursue what I hope to eventually become a career. I don’t know how wireless service will work for me over the next 24 hours, as the hotel offers free wireless in the lobby but not in the rooms. If you get short, jumbled posts from me, its because I decided to blog from my phone.
As for more details, ESPN 710 is hosting it so there will be some big names from the Leader speaking on a variety of topics, including creating demo tapes, how to properly prep a resume, and how to start off on your own. They are all important subjects in the life of someone looking to get into broadcasting, but its a nice personal touch to give some insight so that people don’t bang their head against a wall.
In the meantime, wish me luck; I’ll be back to regularly scheduled sports topics later today.
