Spending Your Morning at the Local News Station

Fox 5 WTTG New Station It has been a wild week in Washington DC. First there was the Oprah Show, then it was all of the excitement around the Inauguration and the week ended in the Fox 5 TV station for a taping. How much excitement can one simple girl from the suburbs take?

I'm waiting to see how the taping comes out. It has gone to editing and should be available next week. If it isn't to embarrassing I'll put a link to it on my blog. What I did learn is that the Fox 5 news set is smaller than it looks on TV but certainly high tech. The green screen is really green, the crew terrific and that you should not be in the middle of a photo shoot when a chef arrives with live lobsters for the cooking segment.

Fox 5 WTTG Cindy Jones on Set There is no doubt that I am not interested in spending much time in front of a camera but it does seem to keep happening. Any chance I could get a double to stand in for me?

This blogging thing creates more work than I ever expected. Just another week in the life of a Northern Virginia Realtor®!

Ah! The sweet taste of adventure.

Great publicity. Good luck. TV works.

Wow. You mean to say I can go around telling people I've met a real live TV star?! You go, girl!

JAN

Lenn-there is always an adventure in real estate :-)

Ken-well at least a taped one :-)

Cindy Jones-Northern Virginia Real Estate & Military Relocation Services-That is great. Being on a TV set. If I want a interview from you,you are not going to brush me off or anything like that now since you are now big time? LOL. Congratulations to you Cindy. Hope you get more leads and sales from your exposure. Have a great weekend. Great post.

Lanre-I'm just an ordinary gal from the burbs living a life of obscurity :-) Sometimes a little something different drops into our lives and we just get to go with it.

JAN

Congratulations to you Cindy!

Thanks Shameca!

Cindy, congrats on your recent TV opportunities! It will pay off for you over time.

At the very least it gives you some cool 'war stories' about real estate.

JAN

Lara-it also reminds me that time has passed and I'm not as young as I think I am :-)

Cindy, I sure hope your represented us well. I am tired of self serving realtors who sacrifice the reputation of the industry to promote themselves. An example of this I saw last year when a realtor, on some news show, talked about how other realtors rip people off. Boy, that got me steamed!

I am sure you didn't trash the industry. I will be looking forward to seeing you on the screen making all of us look good.

Brien-you can be assured that I have not intention of going on the news and trashing our industry. Talk about professional suicide. Not smart.

Cindy - i am so glad to be back on Active Rain now to keep up with all of you now! That is awesome!!! Where's the link??

What a great experience that must have been very surreal

Naoma-so glad to see you back among us! I hope all of the issues that took you wasy have been resolved and we will see you blogging away.

Lynn-it was very cool to be in the studio. In my long long ago past I did some reports for the Far East Network, not real estate related, so seeing how far the studio has actually come was an eye opener.

MAR

Cindy, Very cool... congrats on the success and excitement!!!

MAR

Brian-it was a fun time. Now it is back to selling real estate.

MAR

Cindy-that is awesome and there definitely isn't a better person to do the job. Please post the link when its available! :)

MAY

Cindy, Congratulations sounds like good fun work!

OCT

Once in a lifetime opportunity. Looks like you had a great time. Who knows when you retire from RE.

OCT

Cindy you have been elevated to "extraoridinary" person since you always take the "extra" mile in personal development and protecting the pulbic. in this instance you have stepped outside of your comfort zone to grow in another direction. Well done. although your experience may appear to be overwhelming, you will find new directions that serve you well in your journey in life. p.s. you look marvelous in front of the camera and we look forward to the link on your blog. Suggest you also include these links on your website!
