ABC 2 Teen Perspective Commercial
This is the latest commercial for the ABC News show I work for in Maryland called "Teen Perspective News". I work with a really great group of people and we learn so much each week as we work to produce our news show. We write, report on, and produce our own half-hour news show, covering real news for a smaller demographic, TEENS.
In this video, Daiyaan Colbert, a member of our news team, gives you an inside look at Teen Perspective News and what the teens involved have learned.
"Go beyond Journalism 101. TV professionals teach teens the tricks of the trade. The Scripps Foundation's Teen Media Project gives hands on experience in all aspects of News Gathering and Production."
*The Teen Media Project is now excepting applications for the 2010-2011 season. Please fulfill all application requirments and mail them to the enclosed address by October 1, 2010.*

ABC "Teen Perspective" News - January 2010
In the video above, you can watch me (Mikella) anchor ABC's Teen Perspective News. This is the January 2010 show.
I'm a teen reporter for WMAR-ABC 2 News in Maryland. I cover a lot of different local events for ABC including stories on teen unemployment rates, teen volunteers, teen musicians, teen safety and the legendary annual high school football traditions (Poly vs. City and the Turkey Bowl).
In this newscast, we focused on Haiti: the hard facts, and the relief effort going on worldwide and throughout many high schools in Maryland.
My story is on Jack & Jill: An African-American mother's organization that brings children ages 2-19 together. They worked this winter to organize and volunteer at a Hats, Mittens, and Gloves drive in downtown Baltimore for people who are less fortunate.
Look out for more episodes of Teen Perspective news right here on my blog. I'll be adding more episodes.
My co-anchor Jenny, and I had a really good time. She's fun to work with and we both worked really hard.
