Sign-up now for your opportunity to announce some live video play-by-play of Husker sports on the Big Ten Network’s “BTN Plus” student web-stream during the fall semester. See the schedule above for the available events this fall, in women’s volleyball and women’s soccer.
These events are produced by HuskerVision staff members and announced by CoJMC majors. No previous experience is required, but a thorough knowledge of the sport (including rules and terminology) is a must. If the Network likes the coverage of the event, it is often repackaged and carried at a later date on the BTN cable network. These are paid announcing opportunities, and you get a digital copy of your work for use in your personal demo materials.
Interested? Indicate which of these events would fit your schedule, and return this email with your contact information to Prof. Alloway at ralloway1@unl.edu. Feel free to contact him with questions about these assignments as well.
This schedule is subject to change, both with deletions and additions. But for the time being, here is the proposed schedule for Fall 2015. We will assign two student announcers to each event. Crew call for each event is usually 90 minutes prior to the listed start time.
