Videojournalism for Online

 

The videojournalism option is designed to enable trainees to produce short, focused video reports for use online on news websites. Creativity is encouraged but work should be to industry standards.

 

The four study units cover: equipment and techniques; videojournalism and news gathering; interviewing; and regulation and compliance.

 

Candidates sit a two hour video-editing examination which assesses their basic editing and reporting skills and produce one video news package created entirely on their own.

 

This option is due to be developed as a distance learning unit.
