Hello there!
This was an odd spur of the moment project championed by fellow RMIT journalism student, TV’s Lachlan Cowlishaw: “Hey, let’s set up a talk show set in my garage and just goof around!” I agreed on one condition: that we’d include cameras in that equation. A sensible decision.
So that’s the gist of it. Lachlan dressed [...]

The Glamorous World of Television
Hello!
It’s been quite a turbulent month. I’ll start this blog entry with some words of wisdom from my first hand personal experience, for anyone with an interest in joining the hideous bitch goddess that is, “show biz”:
1. Don’t ever write a review.
Just don’t do it. Unless you want to write reviews for a living. Or, [...]
Live Television Debut!
Greetings!
Very exciting week last week: it was my turn to be on Newsline! I was the sports correspondent on May 18 2010 under the weighted anchoring of TV’s Ben Hagemann and Alicia Muling. The programme broadcast live on Channel 31 Melbourne from 4pm to 4:30pm.
Coming to Melbourne and studying television journalism at RMIT has really opened my [...]
Sports! (Not the Huey Lewis kind)
Greetings!
This just to hand: I, David M. Green, will now be the “sports correspondent” on Channel 31 Melbourne’s “Newsline” on Tuesday May 17 2010 at 4pm. Anchoring that day will be the veritable Ben Hagemann and the actual Alicia Muling. So tune in to see RMIT student journalism in its purest televisual form.
Little known fact about myself: I actually played [...]
Shame Shame Shame.
Hello!
Yes, I’ve been brushing shoulders, literally, with the “Scrabble elite”. On Monday I accompanied fellow RMIT post-grad journalism student, Newspaper’s Ben Hagemann, as HE interviewed Radio (and TV)’s Derryn Hinch at the 3AW studios on fabulous Spencer Street, Docklands!
Ben accompanied me on my recent interviews with Micallef and Vine, so I returned the favour and acted as [...]
Shootin’ the puns with Tim Vine
Hello!
David M. Green here, blogging live from Melbourne, and have I got a treat for you! On Tuesday I was thrilled to interview UK comedian Tim Vine! I loved him in “The Sketch Show”, so much so I even named my “On The Yacht” radio character after him (Norman Vine). He is the undisputed “Master of the [...]
Sittin’: Another Interview with Shaun Micallef (Complete Version)
Greetings,
After transcribing my 6,000+ word interview with Mr Shaun Micallef, and aware my word limit for Catalyst is a mere 1,200 words, I’ve decided for the greater good to put the complete interview online for all to enjoy. Rest assured a ‘best of’ will appear in RMIT’s Catalyst Magazine in a month or so, but for those [...]
Cafe Micallef
Ahoy,
Ooh I tell ya, this whole “living in Melbourne” thing just keeps getting better and better! Under the premise of writing an article for RMIT University’s “Catalyst” Magazine, I lured TV’s Shaun Micallef to Druids Cafe on Swanston Street yesterday, where we chatted for approximately 50 minutes. Oh wait, actually, Druids was his suggestion…
Of course, [...]
Study journalism at RMIT. See the sights of TV Town!
To paraphrase Styx: it’s high time I (we) gave you an update on my RMIT journalistic educationary ventures (start a revolution). Ahh… great album.
Yes, so as I was saying… I’m now in week 4 of uni, studying my post-graduate diploma in journalism at RMIT and it’s going pretty well. Pretty, pretty, pre-tty… pretty well. I believe I’ve now established [...]
Life-is-like-a-Hur-ri-ca-ne… here in… Co-burg…
Hello (obviously),
Jesus it’s just one thing after another with this whole “moved to Melbourne to pursue my dreams” episode of the life of David M. Green (me)… Let me give you the latest…
Uni started last Monday. The first 3 days were pretty daunting, especially the part about having to watch the TV news, listen to the radio [...]
