Anchor Jackie Hyland's first fair

WRAL anchor Jackie Hyland got her first taste of the North Carolina State Fair Tuesday as she and senior promotion producer Jay Yovanovich shot a promo, showing what Jackie will be doing at the fair this year.

I tagged along with them and took some behind the scenes pictures for you.

You'll notice in the pictures that Jay isn’t using the typical television camera to shoot video of Jackie.

"I used a Canon 5D DSLR camera and shot the footage at 24 frames per second. This gives a more organic, film-like quality to the image," he said.

To see the finished promo, watch the video below:
