Bricks & Clicks
The Rockford Register Star is more than a newspaper: the ink on print or the “bricks” in the News Tower. We’re a multimedia news and information company: the “clicks” on our Web site and the TV clips on WREX-13. This blog explains our fast-changing media environment and interacts with our readers to show how and why we do what we do.

Watch as we grow

4 comments June 24th, 2008

We have some talented journalists in our newsroom, and I enjoy watching as they grow into multimedia journalists.

Billy Kulpa, a 2001 Harlem grad and 2007 NIU grad, started with us Jan. 7. On his first day, Billy was shooting footage of the Boone tornado. He got this story on Edwards Orchard. And that video, which he shot with a Sony Handycam, is pretty terrific.

In the last six months, Billy’s learned how to shoot video with our Sony HD cameras. On Saturday, he used that equipment for this story on the Phantom Regiment’s conductor. See/hear any differences in Billy’s latest production?
