So You Want to Make a TV Show- 2nd Period- Class #8

Dana was nice today. She set out coffee for the students, figuring those who had to wake up for a second period class on the Monday after spring break might need a little jump-start, so this way they didn't fall asleep and she didn't have to drop a book on the desk near their head or something. That would be just embarrassing for all involved.

"Welcome back, everyone. It sounds like you all had a very interesting week, and hopefully everyone at the very least has sobered up by now," she began, "especially since I'm going easy on you. Let's face it, most of you are only going to be half-paying attention to me today anyway. So I'm breaking from the syllabus and instead giving you all a project due next week. Today we're going to be looking at some of the camera equipment that gets used.

"I have one here that you can check out and try out," she said, patting a camera affixed to a tripod. "You break it, you buy it, and you may have to get down and give me 20. Also, we have smaller, hand-held cameras that you're going to take with you for the week. Find and record some interesting footage for next week's class. When we work on editing, that's what we're going to use to splice things together. Get some action footage, interview someone, just bring me something. It doesn't need to be sports-related, either, so though if you bring me something that we can put in our broadcast, that's a bonus. The only rules are: don't use these in class without explicit permission as I don't want the other teachers to hate me, and do not- do not- use these for anything I'd have to take to the principal. There's a reason you got these after spring break."

After being massive idiot yesterday, Hannibal was covering most of that up by doodling in his notebook and doing absolutely anything he could to not give his bad mood away.

It wasn't much working but he wasn't going to stop.

Adora had taken some coffee and sat with her hands gripping the cup in an attempt to keep them warm. She was not fond of snow when it wasn't Frosta-created.

And if her eyes were rather fixed in a certain direction, well, call her confused.

Why did Lois have a class on Mondays again? God, she needed to work on her scheduling skills.

Yuck, coffee, but oooh! Cameras, and Turtle was also wondering if she was the only person in existence excited to be back from the grind. Sure, the cruise was lovely and awesome, but there was work to do! Exciting work! Money-making work! And she had probably about a gazillion more awesome vacations like that waiting for her in the future.

Dinah was concentrating. And taking notes. And yeah, perking up just a little at the camera.

Oooh, camera. This should be interesting. He was having a hard time hiding his grin.

Jenny was massively hungover, and clinging to her coffee like it was a lifeline on a stormy sea.
