Overview of class

This class will teach students how to write and produce newscasts, segments and studio interviews using our state-of-the-art producing programs. You will rotate through positions such as producer, anchor and writer and use 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. You will use CNN footage from the day's events to write and video edit stories on deadline. You will also learn how to run the Ross Inception programs to create and determine everything from graphics to camera shot to video playback. This course is designed to prepare you to work in a television newsroom or other media outlet that involves studio production.
