The Compelling Image
Backpack Journalism$249.00
Not quite television news and not exactly cinema either, Backpack Journalism is a multimedia phenomenon unique to our times. Its practice draws on skill-sets delivered historically by a 'crew' of news personnel - cameraman, sound person, producer and reporter. As the name implies, advantages of Backpack Journalism lie in going light - cost-wise and in the size and amount of equipment for the job. Backpack journalists are more mobile, flexible and responsive to the moment - everything it takes to compete in a media world, where even video-savvy mobile-phone users pose competition today. Comprehensively designed, this online multimedia course will supply you with the basic techniques, methods - and practice - to begin your journey into this exiting and rapidly growing field of visual journalism.
What you will need:
- Digital video camera
- External microphone
- Laptop computer with video-editing software
- Light but sturdy tripod
Lesson plan:
- How to Shoot an Interview
