What's better than Monday motivation from our member of the month and Fox 2 Investigative Reporter Rob Wolchek!? Let us know which tip is getting you through this week 👇
"When I was a general assignment reporter at my first full-time TV job, I was low man on the totem pole," said Wolchek. "So, I decided I would take all the lousy stories they gave me and make them the best stories on the newscast through sheer creativity and effort. Getting all those bad stories for three years and somehow bringing them to life taught me how to be a better storyteller."
☑️ Be fearless - "When I came to Detroit, I came with the attitude of “wait until they get a load of me!” I did what I thought was entertaining and interesting without worrying about friends and family judging me."
☑️ Don’t be afraid to show your work to other people you work with - "I show my work to people before it airs and ask their opinions. If they say something isn’t good I will change it."
☑️ Sometimes your camera man, producer or editor will come up with a good line.. Use it - "I’m the guy who’s face is on TV, so if somebody comes up with an idea that’s better than mine, I’m happy to use it!"
