INTERNSHIP WEEK 1 at ABS-CBN

Karen, Kim and I were assigned at News and Current Affairs Division of ABS-CBN, particularly at the iNews Department. We were introduced to our supervisor Mr. Marden Edward Quirapas. With no idea with what we’re going to do there, we were asked to return the next day. So to formally start my internship, I was tasked to tally the advisories for the month of March 2010. I had to note the names of all the news reporters who submitted their news reports. That same day, I learned how to use Avid iNews 3.0. ‘iNews’ is the database where all advisories and reports are located. And because of that, I discovered the reporters’ format in writing their news script.
