Get TV Smart
Want to know how to push my buttons?
Wave your hand into the TV camera while I’m doing a live interview, that’s how!
That has to be my biggest pet peeve. There is absolutely no reason to do that unless you’re a child…or an undergraduate student at a college football game. I think that waving to the camera or any other hand gesture is sophomoric and amateurish. In fact, if I’m interviewing someone and he does that, or someone happens to walk behind him and wave to the camera or do obnoxious “rabbit ears”, I won’t even use that video. It literally ends up on the cutting room floor…and he never gets the media attention he was hoping for. The way you get to be on TV is by becoming media savvy.
