Trump on Reopening amid COVID-19 Risks | Nightline

I worked production sound for this ABC Nightline piece on President Trump’s statements about COVID-19 risks as the country moved toward economic reopening in spring 2020. News production at this stage of the pandemic required adjustments to standard crew practices — smaller footprints, more distance between crew members, and modified interview setups.

ENG sound for network news in high-stakes political coverage means prioritizing clean, broadcast-quality dialogue above everything else. The editorial team needs audio that is usable without significant post work, regardless of what the physical environment presents.
