How long does it take to put together each episode of News Channel 3 Outdoors?
Well, it varies wildly. We covered an early season goose hunt in September of 2004 that was over in about 45 minutes. In that short amount of time, we got enough footage to produce an entire show. A couple of weeks after that, we traveled to Old Hickory Lake to shoot a bass fishing segment. We rolled tape for 2 solid days and came back with absolutely nothing. Generally though, it takes us about a week to put together all of the elements for one 30 minute show. • How do I enter the weekly Viewer Field Test ?
