About Tom Enell

I am a recent graduate of Michigan State University. I received my degree in communication in the summer of 2011. Currently I am excited to be part of the internship program at HOM TV. I am learning the ropes of the production side of TV and it is moving very quickly. When I am not at work, I enjoy running, watching various TV programs, following MSU athletics, drinking arnold palmers, watching obscure films and keeping up with family and friends. In the future, with the experience I am getting at HOM TV, I hope to work with video production whether it is tv, documentary or film.

Moonlight Ski and Snowshoe

This story ended up being one of my personal favorites despite the short amount of time I spent with it. Initially I thought it was going to be canceled because how would someone ski or snowshoe without any snow. There … Continue reading

Winter Kickball Tournament

I admit I was a little disgruntled when I woke up Saturday morning and had to go out and shoot a kickball event of all things. I didn’t really know what to expect especially considering this was the first time … Continue reading

Haslett Marathon Gas Station Construction

What I thought was just another straight forward information piece about construction at a gas station had a little more going on under the surface than I had initially thought. It seemed a simple enough story and I got the … Continue reading

Extended Deer Harvest

Business as usual as my new semester at HOMTV began. There wasn’t anything too special when it came to this story as it was just a VO/SOT/VO about a special extended hunting season. Due to the overpopulation of deer in … Continue reading

Michigan Adoption Day

My final story as a rookie intern might have had more to it than any of my other stories. By the end of it I had been to four different locations and talked with a dozen different people. This was … Continue reading
