the volunteer perspective


what up?!
this is rox, I'm a volunteer with the Set It Up show (which rules, by the way).
we're currently finishing production and beginning post-production on the last episode of the season (sob).
As my second year with the program is coming to an end, I have to say I'm a little sad that it's almost over. but not too sad, because there's still a lot of work to do to finish up, the bbq studio shoot, and the final viewing party.
the crew this year is talented, motivated, and very committed to the success of the show. I am lucky to have worked with such a fantastic crew, and am inspired by their passion and dedication. also I enjoy chillin' with them, talking about arbitrary subjects, and laughing at pretty much everything they say. they are an amazing group. I can say that they will all go somewhere unimaginably awesome in their futures, but in all honesty they're already doing it.
in closing, I'd like to give a big shout out to all the SIU crew and wish them all the best for the summer and beyond. also, they should keep in touch. on myspace.
love y'all!

A Blog From James!

It hasn't been the same here at Set It Up since Andrea went off to get married. Kevin has been working extra hard, but since we are without Andrea, we have been calling it Set It Up Lite. We are waiting for her to come back and we hope she's having a great time!

Our production for the last episode of the season is well underway. The topic we chose is "Teen Scenes." Set It Up intends to explore the various teen hangouts, clubs, groups, and activities. It is going to be a great episode and I hope everyone is looking forward to seeing it!









Well, that's all I have for today. Don't forget to tune in to channel 16 every monday at 7pm!

Hey, everybody! Here we are at Set It Up, working hard, hardly workin'. :D It's me again, Erin, newbie extraordinaire.

We've already started our next episode. It's "Teen Scenes." I didn't choose it, don't look at me. ^^ It's about teen hangouts and events and such. It should be really interesting, if all goes well.

Also, episode 5 is our last episode EVER. Okay, not EVER, but for this season, yes. We'll work extra hard to make this episode the best this season! :D

Anyways, our beloved Andrea (above and to the right, flashin' a peace sign at'cha), will be gone for about a week or two because she's getting married! Congrats, Andrea!

Unfortunately, this leaves poor Kevin (above in the blue shirt) all alone to manage all us teens. And that is all I can say because SIU is over for today and Kevin's kicking me out.

Lots Of Love And Stuff,
Erin
