The latter group of us didn't get into town until dark, so it was difficult to see much. What was visible, even in the dark: many a home, without power, with a FEMA trailer in the front yard, abandoned motels, and the monstrous Superdome.
We had a brief meeting before heading off to bed to go over the plan for tomorrow. Here's an overview.
Big goals/projects for Thursday:
1. Myra's PKG. We'll finish shooting b-roll elements and prepare the story to feed from WWL-TV back to WFAA in Dallas.
2. Several interviews we've already scheduled, including a student body president at a local university and a dean of admissions.
3. Explore the city. We're getting our head around the timeline of last fall. We all watched this progression graphic from the local newspaper website that helped us immensely.
And some good news for Garrett's story on the Superdome, we just received an email from a contact at the construction company that oversaw the facility's reconstruction with the phone number of a possible interview. We'll make contact with him first thing in the morning.
More updates to come.
