Breaking News Director's Track

This is a 6pm newscast that I directed for ABC2 in Baltimore. It was a big news day with an accident on the Bay Bridge, the MySpace murder verdict, and McNair arrest. As you'll see, there are lots of live, tape and graphic elements.

Maybe it's just that I think the blue graphics look nicer but it all somehow seems fancer pre-Ignite :P We don't really have those keyed transition stings anymore.
