Here’s my office work:

Since 2005 I worked as a TV news producer. We started the day with a morning meeting where reporters pitched stories and it was decided what they covered that day. Then as a producer I organized the stories in the newscast and found other stories which I was responsible for. That ranges from finding a worthwhile press release to interviewing people myself (usually by phone, and someone’s video chat,) or just finding info by going through data. I would write those, then decide what visuals, audio elements, camera shots, graphics, and anchor reads went with it.

Then during the live newscast I timed it, and made adjustments on the fly when necessary. (Killing stories, finding ones to insert, and adding breaking news.)

I let my contract end almost two months ago, choosing not to stay in news. I’ve been applying to mostly other non-TV news office jobs. That’s including producing other video projects, but also technical writing and marketing positions.

!gamedev@lemmy.world - I took it over several months ago and have tried to regularly share news that is relevant to developers and hobbyists. I think I’ve done an okay job, but it’s still pretty low in search results when you search “gamedev Lemmy”. While posts get a few upvotes, and some comments, almost no one else posts there.

The thing is, I like the Reddit r/gamedev community just fine and still visit it. I just don’t trust Reddit as a company. So this is my way of trying to facilitate a healthy option, and follow the adage of “the grass is greener where you water it”.

So if you’re into video game development and the industry around it, feel free to join!
