1 YEAR INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMA - Digital Journalism

Digital Journalism is the craft of one properly trained professional using a digital video camera to tell stories in  a more immediate, more intimate fashion than can be achieved using a larger team with a cameraman, sound person, interviewer, and producer.

In the field the digital journalist shoots, records sound, produces, reports and interviews. Once back from the field the digital journalist writes the script, edits the material, narrates the piece and delivers it to broadcasters or uploads it for worldwide dissemination. f you're the independent kind of person, who likes to go it alone and uncover your own stories, this is the course for you.
