SWMS Teleconference:  Scott Budman, host, NBC TechNow

If only all TV journalists were as tech-savvy as NBC Bay Area’s Scott Budman. Or as responsive to PR.

Your big challenge with Scott is, can you tell your story visually? Will it play well on TV? Scott does blog at NBCBayArea.com. But it’s got to work on TV. That leaves out just about all software. Gadgets? Good. Just about any hardware will do.

Scott also says he’s interested in user-centric pieces, but he has so little time. He’s not going to shoot MOS footage except perhaps in front of an Apple store the night before the iPad goes on sale. So why not shoot some of your own, and send it to him along with a pitch?

That’s our suggestion. But Scott makes many of his own in the notes to your right.
