Voiceovers are used to introduce or transition between stories, and can be written from a script. Packages contain video, natural sound, and a reporter's narrative to enhance a story. Television scripts follow a specific format, with notations on the left side indicating audio cues and a teleprompter side showing narration. Stand-ups are live reporter segments that fall into categories of informational, analytical, or promotional.
