Instructors: Angie Looney and Tim Looney

Build your broadcast storytelling skills in this hands-on workshop class. We’ll teach you how to craft video/audio stories using professional video cameras and microphones, you'll learn how to conduct thoughtful, fact-finding interviews with real subjects, professional anchor a news show produced by the class, and work all aspects of the news production. Your work will culminate in a final news broadcast program from our professional studio.

We'll also take a field trip to visit a local newsroom to see the pros in action!
