SUMMARY:Going Live – Secrets and Strategies for Successful Live TV Interviews and Remotes
DESCRIPTION:Live TV interviews in news studios\, on the street or at events are much different than recorded TV interviews. There are different challenges and approaches in preparing for and doing live television interviews. Live TV offers brand building and communications advantages; PR professionals need to know how to prepare themselves\, their clients and leaders of their organizations for these interviews as there are many challenges and problems which can occur. During PRPLI’s “Going Live\,” a panel of expert TV journalists and anchors\, along with individuals who have conducted many TV interviews\, will discuss how they prepare and what makes an effective live appearance. Media relations experts will also discuss how to secure\, plan and prepare for live TV interviews in studios and live remote broadcasts. The panelists have been involved in thousands of live TV news reports and will share their strategies\, stories\, and secrets with attendees. \n\n\n\n\nChoose Member\, Non-Member or Student\n	Member $20.00 USD\n	Non-Member $25.00 USD\n	Student $10.00 USD\n \n\n\n\n\n\nOur PanelAntoinette Biordi\, News 12News 12 Anchor and Reporter \n×Antionette Biordi - News 12 Anchor and Reporter\nAntoinette Biordi is an Emmy Award winning reporter and anchor for News 12 Long Island.
