Have fun and learn how to cover sports like a pro! The way you tell your story online can make all the difference. We are all digital for summer 2020.
You will learn how to:
Shoot video of sporting events and sports features
Interview players, coaches, and fans
Report from the field and from the “studio”
Write stories that are compelling and engaging
Edit multimedia stories that you can share on YouTube and social media
How We Do it:
The course runs for two weeks
The class meets as a group in a Zoom session for one hour on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
Each student meets for a one-on-one brief Zoom check-in on Tuesday and Thursday
Additional one-on-one time is available as needed
Students do their shooting, writing, and editing on their own, outside of class time
Students will work with shooting any sports activity happening in their world or with previously played professional or college sporting events
Students need their own smart phone or camera and editing software (iMovie is free on Mac and MovieMaker is free on PCs)
