Reality Story Editing: That's A Button, Not A Hook

Listen as they share all their behind-the-craziness stories, and find out what it takes to turn a giant stack of tapes (or digital files, these days) into a compelling hour of television!    SHOW NOTES    <a href="http://twitter.com/fuggirls">Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan on Twitter</a> <a href="https://smile.amazon.com/Royal-We-Heather-Cocks-ebook/dp/B00MEMMWGM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1491931089&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=the+royal+we">The Royal We on Amazon</a> Learn more about your ad choices.
