Recording Eric at the "mothership"
There are a lot of reasons why we don’t shoot "News To Me" in a studio. For one: Eric is allergic to teleprompters. It’s a rare allergy, but it can be quite debilitating. Especially for someone who makes their living as a TV presenter. Two: Inside a TV studio there are a lot more of […]
There are a lot of reasons why we don’t shoot "News To Me" in a studio.
For one: Eric is allergic to teleprompters. It’s a rare allergy, but it can be quite debilitating. Especially for someone who makes their living as a TV presenter.
Two: Inside a TV studio there are a lot more of US than there are of YOU, and the "News To Me" motto is, "YOU shoot it, we show it." So we steer clear of the climate controlled sound stages and get out into the elements, where YOU are.
For this weekend's show we blurred those lines just a little. We shot Eric’s "on camera" stuff all around CNN Center here in downtown Atlanta, Georgia. Some of us refer to CNN Center as "The Mothership" because it’s home to CNN (of course), CNN International, CNN en Espanol, CNN Radio, CNN.com, the Airport Network, the Inside CNN Studio Tour and HLN – the home of "News To Me."
The Inside CNN Studio Tour is a behind the scenes tour of the Global Headquarters of CNN and it is VERY popular. In the shot above you see Eric with Kat who brought her parents (visiting from England) to take the tour that also includes a look at the newsroom and studios of HLN. Little did Kat (or her parents) know that before the day was over she would actually end up ON HLN!
It’s not hard to find a bridge in Atlanta… a lot of the city is actually built a few stories above the ground in order to leave passages open for the freight trains that rumble through all day long.
Cameraman/writer/editor/Activia-eater Teague is a master at making something as mundane as this concrete bridge belly interesting … see if you can spot the shot he’s shooting above in the show tomorrow!
What's going on here? Three little words: I dare you.
OK… Eric didn't really lick that graffiti-covered support pillar in the parking deck. Or did he? Find out if he's immune to the Norwalk virus this weekend on "News To Me!"
