This episode of Inside JMS features Ryan “RT” Thorp, Video Production Specialist and instructor in the Hank Greenspun School of Journalism and Media Studies. RT shares with hosts Kevin Stoker and Dave Nourse how a love of drumming led him from an initial path studying music education to a career in broadcast and live production. He reflects on his professional journey through several Las Vegas television stations, his return to UNLV-TV, and the origins of his production philosophy: “Don’t freak out.
