Overview of class

This key Medill video class will teach students how to write and produce newscasts, segments and studio interviews in our state-of-the-art control room and studio. You will work with an automated system just as professional journalists do to see your producing vision come to life. The fast-paced course will emphasize the conversational writing styles of broadcast and video productions while continuing to build the journalistic fundamentals of accurate and ethical reporting. You will use material from the day's events to write and video edit stories on deadline. You will also learn how to run Ross Inception and Ross Expression programs to create and run everything from graphics to camera shots and positions to video playback. This course is designed to prepare you to work in a television newsroom or other media outlet that involves studio production.
