The Little Things...
There are the little things in a newscast that I enjoy putting on the air. One of those things are the bump shots that we use going into or out of a block of news.
We use bump shots coming into a block of news to re-establish our newscast or we can use bump shots going out of a block of news as a way to transition into a commercial break.
Bump shots can be wide shots of the studio or shots of the surrounding area. Since we're broadcasting in DC, we have a wealth of outside bump shots to use...and I try to squeeze them in whenever I get the chance.
Take a look.

I always love bump shots. It gives you a chance to enjoy the great news themes.
I remember watching Eyewitness News at 5 with JC and Kate. The bumps were always excellent. Towercam that zoom in or out while the shot is up are nice, too.
Keep up the good work.

Wow! Your comment takes me back several years with the mention of Kate.
I believe she works with the Fairfax County Government. I saw her on the air on one of the cable access channels a few months back.
