Reporter Roundtable is a 30-minute weekly public affairs talk show on Brooklyn Community Access Television. The show will be available for viewing here. Watch the show tonight at 9pm. Time Warner 56; Cablevision 69.

I think we all look very pundit-y. Brownstoner said he’d heard that it’s a good idea to sit on the bottom of your jacket to keep it from riding up. I couldn’t do that. Lumi thought she was having a bad hair day but I think she looks fantastic. Doing our cutaways (the reaction shots) was probably the weirdest part. We each had to act like we were were listening by nodding our heads and wordlessly reacting to what was being said (even though nothing was being said) for about a minute.

I used to be a film/video editor so I know all about cutaways. They are essential for smooth editing of interviews and the cutting out of awkward pauses, ummms, etc.

The impact of Brooklyn blogs was the roundtable theme. Pictured right to left: that’s me, OTBKB, in the brown jacket, Jonathan Butler of Brownstoner Media and Lumi Michelle Rolley of No Land Grab in the bright red jacket. Our moderator was, far  left, Ted Hamm, founding editor of the Brooklyn Rail.

Roundtable created a nice montage of the Blogfest, with excerpts from various speakers and nice shots of the event set to music.
