About Broadcast Journalism

In Broadcast Journalism you will explore the reporter's role in factual production across broadcast and electronic media. Topics covered will include research for audio visual media, writing for radio, television and the internet, interviewing techniques, script editing, and the principles of presenting for radio and television, and a practice-based assessment option. To realise this, students will be expected to undertake story design and conception, research, script editing, review and analysis. This subject aims to give students an appreciation of the multi-skilling required by convergence of television, radio, press and internet in the current media environment, and to develop skills in these areas.

Pitching

The pitch is one of the most important parts of a story - it convinces an editor or producer that your idea is solid, interesting, and perfect for their publication. So what makes a good pitch, and how much preparation should you get done beforehand? Copyright 2010 Lawrie Zion / La Trobe University, all rights reserved. Contact for permissions.

Interviewing Politicians for Broadcast

When you're doing a profile interview on a politician you need to be well prepared. Politicians are regularly interviewed, are well practised, and sometimes it can be a challenge to get an answer that isn't spin. How do you go about structuring an interview, and how do you go about research preparation? Copyright 2010 Lawrie Zion / La Trobe University, all rights reserved. Contact for permissions.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
