New program broadcasts APS football games

Atlanta Public Schools students now have a chance to learn video production skills and get APS athletics on TV.

This year students at Grady and North Atlanta high schools began working with Grady grad and video producer Will Tolbert on weekly “Game of the Week” broadcasts of APS football games. The students serve as announcers, play-by-play announcers and camera operators.

“It’s one thing to learn it in the class from your teacher, but you learn a lot more when you actually get to do it,” Tolbert said.
