Digital Journalism

DIGITAL JOURNALISM WORKSHOP:
Shooting and Editing for the Web
$750

The new journalism requires digital news gathering skills. Reporters are being asked to shoot and edit video and stills for the web. And photographers are being asked to shoot video to tell complete stories.

Our Digital Journalism Workshop will give you the three skills you need for your job right now: shooting, editing, and sending via the internet.

What you will learn

This class will empower you to shoot using any pro/consumer video camera; to edit using any non-linear computer editing software; and to post video on the internet. It will cover camera, lighting, and audio basics; capturing and editing video basics; and outputting video to the web. Six weeks of hands on training will give you the ability and confidence to delve into online content production.

We use broadcast quality camera and editing equipment, on par with the pricier educational institutions around the city. Our Executive Director is an Adjunct Professor at NYU and our instructors have decades of experience in the New York City broadcast media market.

Benefits

There is a growing need for self-contained professionals able to cover assignments with a camera and a laptop, as well as entrepreneurial rewards.
This workshop will be a tool to enhance or create a new career as well as everything you need to tap into your creative self, preparing for the new changes in newspapers, television and the internet. New technology and the internet provide the opportunity to create high-quality presentations for use as streaming video, blogs or publishing them to YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Google and other online media.

You will cover news stories and assignments using the Metro daybook to polish your skills and contribute to our news coverage on www.drumtv.com and our upcoming Harlem Internet TV channel (HIT-TV) which will be recruiting contributors from across the US and the world.

You need

A digital still camera and a USB Flash drive. These are perfect tools for Visual Storytelling as you learn to create, design, write and storyboard narratives, using still and video images from your digital camera.
Access to a PC with Windows Movie Maker or Mac with I-Movie is required and you will script, storyboard, narrate and edit your projects on your home computer using editing and production techniques you learn in class, then upload them to the CFWC and DRUMTV Channels on the internet.
