Hosting on Live TV - A Different Ball Game
I lost my virginity yesterday. To the world of television hosting. I've done a TV show or two, but yesterday, October 13th, marked my first venture into actually hosting a live television show. Totally different scene.
When head producer from Twin Cities Live asked me if I had ever read a teleprompter, as she was nodding like "say yes, because we don't have time to go over it," I said. "yes." And I have. I've read a million teleprompters ... but never out loud. I figured we'd run through it, and was waiting, but alas, we didn't, it was live, and there was no going back.
I also learned that a word could be cut off in the middle while reading a teleprompter. Which is why I thought I was talking about a hospital named Brea St. Cancer..., but it turned out I was supposed to say Breast Cancer. Oops.
It was fun, though, and a baptism by fire experience I'd gladly do again.
