Usually our energy update consists of newspaper information with photography and graphics. Yesterday we were able to send Tim Money to Norman to get footage of the press conference. Always nice to have b-roll and SOT.

Chesapeake investing in promotion
You’ve seen the commercials on TV and online. And you’ve seen the print ads. Chesapeake is promoting its clean energy efforts. In today’s Energy update, Chesapeake CEO Aubrey McClendon provides the quote of the day:

Some days are like this
We managed to crank out 13 videos today from the OPUBCO Studios crew, including nine in the studio. Topics ranged from sports (go figure) to politics to energy. Our energy segment is doing very well in video traffic. That surprises me. Perhaps it’s a demo that’s been untapped. It routinely ranks in our top five or top ten of videos each day. Usually that’s reserved for sports and breaking news.
And bull elk fights.
Seriously, the bull elk video that was submitted by someone back in January ranked among our highest viewed video for months.
Tomorrow we’ll tackle wake boarding at the Oklahoma River. Tanner has already conquered this once. And we’ll cover the NBA team name being unveiled, announced and promoted. That’s a pretty big deal. I think Angi is getting a hair cut too. And somewhere in there we’ll interview former mayor Kirk Humphreys for an upcoming video/print piece.
