Overview
Journalists must know how to record stories, write for the ear and for the eye, establish the focus of a story and speak fluently to a listening or viewing audience. Technological developments in the news media require journalists to be familiar with journalism tools that enable them to move easily across different media platforms. The main emphasis in this course is on the techniques of audio and visual journalism. Students will develop their skills in reporting, writing and editing journalistic content for various news platforms.
This course provides students with a hands-on introduction to reporting, writing, recording and presenting journalism for a variety of media platforms. Through independent work (or teamwork as appropriate), students will develop and improve individual skills in journalistic practice for the packaging of news content. Students will be required to think independently, refine their news sense, and operate within the community as journalists. They will further develop interview techniques, voice production, and editorial decision-making, and will also examine the ethical and professional issues surrounding digital journalism's new technologies and the demands of an increasingly competitive industry.
