JOURN 225: Multimedia Journalism

The course is coming together nicely, on schedule for the Winter 2010 rollout. Students will get some experience with non-linear editing, narrated and non-narrated audio documentaries, and working as an editor with a reporter. The latter will be a unique feature of this course, one that will give students a completely different perspective. We're toying with the idea of having them post their pieces directly to a blog and completing a multimedia portfolio.
Since this is the first time teaching this course, there will be some adjustment to see what we can realistically expect to pull off during the time allotted. Stay tuned.
