Free Workshops in Journalism and Content Creation for Digital and Streaming Media
Want to learn how to report gripping news stories? Write intriguing personality profiles? Create compelling content for digital and streaming media? I can teach you!
What:
This summer, I’m teaming up with the Dunham Public Library in Whitesboro, Utica Public Library, and the Jervis Public Library in Rome to offer you free workshops in Journalism and Content Creation for Digital and Streaming Media. In this free workshop, I will teach you basic reporting skills including information-gathering techniques, interviewing skills, how to get pictures and video for your stories, and how to promote them with social media.
No prior journalism or writing experience is required. Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop or smartphone.
