How to Write a TV News Voice Over ?

Narrow down your topic Don’t clutter the voice over with superfluous details If the topic is on the local chili festival,don’t give any more information than the viewer needs.

Just give the five “W’s”: Who, What, Where, Why and How.

Leave plenty of space in the margins and make sure to double space the text.

The person reading the copy may need to make notes or instructions on the page.

Use 12-point font and do not put anything in italics Only write on one side of each page and don’t staple pages together; use a paperclip.

If you staple your pages, they will make noise when turned, and the microphone will pick up the noise.

Label each section of the copy clearly,making the transition from topic to topic easy to see and understand Be sure to include page numbers,as well.

Begin and end each section on one page,if at all possible. This will minimize the reader’s confusion when transitioning from section.

Spell the words phonetically if the words are unfamiliar to the reader. Also,always write out numbers, such as “eight,” and not “8″.

Write simply Don’t use large complicated words just to sound smart Always remember your audience You’re writing the voice over for a large news audience.

Read it out loud Have others listen to it Make sure the voice over flows and is not awkward sounding.

Proofread your copy and have somebody else proofread it, as well If you must, rewrite it until you have an acceptable piece of copy.

How to Make a U-Turn ?

Are you driving the wrong way? Did you take a wrong turn somewhere? You should be going the opposite direction, right? No worries,hang a U turn and correct the problem.

Switch on the turn signal that indicates the direction of your turn.

Check for oncoming traffic.

Make sure that a U-turn is not illegal in this location.

U-turns should not be made across a double yellow line or where signs indicate that they are against the law.

Be sure that you have enough room to make the turn without hitting the curb or any parked cars.

Press the gas lightly while turning the steering wheel as far as it will go in the direction you want to turn.

Lift your foot off the gas and coast through the turn Give gas as needed.

Enter your new lane and begin driving.

While it is possible to perform this with a SUV or pickup truck, do not attempt it with one. The danger of flipping the vehicle is much too high with a vehicle that has a high center of gravity.

Wear your safety belt, as even with a low slung passenger car, it is possible to flip the vehicle if you hit a large rock or other obstruction mid turn.

If you do not put the car in neutral soon enough, or put in the car in gear (drive) too soon, you have the possibility of messing up your transmission.

May cause severe injury or even death.

How to do a upside down question mark

How to Make an Upside Down Question Mark on Microsoft Word ?

Although Microsoft Word handles text and all of its characters just like any other word processing program,the software shows its limitations against desktop publishing programs that allow features such as upside down text.

While Word doesn’t have any kind of keystroke to provide upside down text, users will find a quick workaround does the trick.

Use upsidedown text for writing items such as questions in Spanish, or just to add an off kilter element to your next Word document.

Open Microsoft Word Click the “Insert” tab Click the “Text Box” tab on the ribbon.

Select the first option, “Simple Text Box,” and it is inserted onto the document.

Click into the placeholder text and type a question mark The rest of the placeholder text is deleted.

Resize the box to fit just the question mark by dragging its right end in toward the question mark.

Click the text box’s border to open the new orange “Text Box Tools” tab and ribbon at the top of the screen. Click the “Shape Fill” button and select “No Fill” Click the “Shape Outline” button and select “No Outline” You are left with just the question mark, but it is still right-side up.

Click the question mark to re-open the text box it is still in even though the box is not visible.

Click on and twirl the small green dot in the box’s top center.

Twirl 180 degrees until the question mark is upside down, then click off the text box onto the Word document.

Improper keyboard use can result in carpal tunnel syndrome.

How to do a updo

How to Do Updos ?

An updo is a hair style in which the hair is pulled up on the head and styled It can be as casual as a simple ponytail, or as involved as a head full of cascading curls and tendrils.

No matter what type of updo you choose, some basic tips can make the job easier.

Wash your hair the day before you plan to style your hair in an updo, not on the same day.

Freshly washed hair is very difficult to work with and won’t hold a curl.

Brush and comb the hair thoroughly before you begin so that all tangles and snarls are removed.

Begin styling a basic updo by pulling your hair up and back in a smooth ponytail.

Fasten the ponytail with an elastic band Continue styling the updo from that point.

Use enough styling gel,hairspray or mousse to help hold the updo in place and to control any stray wisps.

Choose an updo that is appropriate for the occasion Don’t wear an elegant updo for a casual event or a simple ponytail for a prom or a wedding.

Consider your personality and choose an updo that you’ll be comfortable with.

How to Create an Updo With Thick Hair ?

If your hair is not naturally curly, curl it first using overnight curlers.

Make your own overnight curlers using tinfoil Tear off a square piece fold it in half several times until you have what looks like a small stick about 10 inches long.

Fold the “stick” in half so it is about 5 inches long.

Moisten your hair with a spray bottle until it is damp.

Starting at the bottom of your hair, twist a small, 1/2-1″ section of hair around the curler.

Remove the curlers when you wake up. Don’t panic if the curls are very tight and curled up around your head. Finger comb through them and if they are still really tight, spritz your hair with some water and blow dry it until the curls have loosened.
