Smoothies and Soccer

At Good Things Utah, there is a different chef in the kitchen every day -- but there's not always a professional soccer player in the kitchen. Before one of the shows last month [sorry, I'm a bit behind] Real Salt Lake player Chris Wingert came into the studio to shoot a pre-recorded segment for the midday show.

Chris is a defender for Real Salt Lake and he is sponsored by Core Power -- an all-natural high protein drink -- so in his segment, he made compared Core Power milk to regular milk and Glenn Willey couldn't tell the difference! Then he made some delicious smoothies with the Core Power and wrapped up the segment with Glenn and Emily.

Not only was it cool to meet a Real Salt Lake player, but I love watching the segments being put together by so many different people. There are so many things that go into producing just a 5-minute segment. There is the guest, the hosts, the camera people, the producer, the director, the technical director, the audio person, and the time beforehand getting ready for the segment. So many people have no idea about all of the things that go into it, but it takes a lot of time, money, and man power. That is definitely one of the biggest things I've learned while interning at ABC4. Television takes WORK.
