Course Catalog Description
This course is an intensive laboratory course in gathering, writing and producing news for broadcast media for TITANVISION (GunnTV) on the Titan Broadcast Network (TBN). Workshop methods and “hands-on” training will be employed to provide students with an understanding of the principles of broadcast television production, video journalism, and radio. Operation of broadcast newsrooms, ethics in broadcast journalism, interviewing techniques, and media criticism will also be examined in the course. This course also serves to broadcast campus news and selected features to the Gunn High School community. Broadcasting operates as a project-based classroom where collaborative groups will be responsible for creating student produced school video features. All student productions will be broadcast over television and the web. Field video production will be applied to explore various types of programs such as student documentaries, sports and events. Speaking and interpersonal abilities are integral to this class for interviews and appearances on camera. This course will address the hands-on use of technology, primarily cameras, video editing software, podcasts, and web streaming.
• Homework Expectation: Attend weekly live television lab sessions required (The G-Live Morning Show). Video productions will require additional time outside of the scheduled class period.
