Course description
Broadcast Journalism is about developing the skills to tell engaging factual stories for radio, television and digital platforms. You will be introduced to a powerful story-telling model called 'The Whale' that will help you design effective and entertaining programs from the start. The Whale also shows you how to fix them when things don't go according to plan. You will also learn the technical skills to record and edit your own audio and video using everything from high quality cameras and audio gear to your own smartphone.
