A HUGE Thank You to Specs Howard for putting together an incredible tour for the Advanced TV Production classes! Special Thanks to Renee Vitale and her staff! Another HUGE Thank You to Amber for coming to Fitzgerald High School on Friday March 12th to present to the Introduction to TV and Broadcast Speech classes!!
The Advanced TV class at Fitzgerald was the first group to tour Specs Howard's NEW campus in Farmington! We had the exciting chance to see a demonstration of a film dolly, and to tour the DE Power & Lighting facility next door! Check out some pictures!!

If you are interested in learning more about Specs Howard School of Media Arts, visit their website at http://specshoward.edu. This is the website that Amber showed you while she was here. You can also talk to me and I can put you in touch with the right people! I have had many students graduate from Fitzgerald and enter into the program at Specs Howard...and all have had a very positive experience! One of my graduates is even on the radio in Northern Michigan!
Those of you interested in TV Production, Broadcasting, Web Design, Graphic Design and the Film Industry should consider Specs Howard if you are looking for a school that is close to home and geared specifically to your field of study! One of the best incentives to consider the school is the fact that with a letter of recommendation from me, you can earn a $2500 scholarship! You can also take their scholarship tests and possibly earn a full ride to the school. We currently have one senior who is in the top 10 and will be taking part in a final interview next week! Remember, Specs Howard is a trade school, offering an 8 month or one year course of study. If you are planning on attending a 4-year University, go for it! But if you know you want to stay home and go right to work in the industry, Specs Howard might be a better choice for you!
As always, hard work pays off, and everyone has to start somewhere. The more opportunities you give yourself to network and experience the industry, the better you will do. Start volunteering and interning as soon as possible to get your foot in the door. Then put your best effort into being the employee that they can't do without!!

There was alot of neat things that was used in film making that i did not know was used until i went on the field trip to Specs Howard. I didnt know that the dolly had cost so much that people rent them instead of buying them.
