Professor Bruce Strong

Workshop Description
What is the key to moving from still-based photography to powerful multimedia storytelling? The answer is not found in understanding a piece of technology or software. The true answer is found in one word: story. This workshop will help you develop a whole new understanding of what makes up a great story, how to find it and how to tell multimedia stories with real impact.

This workshop will cover the importance of pre-production planning for sound, location/production audio recording and creating effective post-production workflow, geared to video and multimedia. We will also discuss common audio problems and how to anticipate and avoid trouble, from field to post.
Instructor
Professor Simon Perez
Broadcast and Digital Journalism Department
Workshop Description
This workshop will review skills and strategies to use smart phones and tablets as reporting tools, instead of just as a means to post random raw video. Reporters who use mobile devices to shoot and edit their video stories can give their organizations an edge in the race to be first to inform viewers.
