Renée Layson

Instructional Production

     My name is Renée Layson and  my job is producing and directing programs for the ITV schedule.  This could include anything from coming up with an idea for a program, going out to tape or taping in the studio and then editing the program for air.

 

     I have a BA in Broadcast Journalism from USC.  My first job was at the Rock Hill Station of ETV as a studio camera operator.  I worked there for 8 ½ years, working my way up to a producer/director.  I worked on the Mary Long’s Yesteryear Series and several major outreach projects on topics such as teen drinking and driving and domestic violence.  One of my greatest accomplishments was a live program done with local teens called THE ZONE, for which we won an Emmy.

     After Rock Hill, I moved to Columbia to work for  ETV as a producer/director.  I joined ITV in 1998.

     Among other programs, I am the producer for Eye Wonder, which has won a  Telly Award and it one of the most popular locally produced programs on  ETV.  My favorite part of my job is directing live television! 

     I am married, my husband is a freelance gaffer (lighting guy) for film and video.  We like to sail, canoe and go camping.
