For this class, we work on video essay, and Professor Louis touch us students about how to make the video better and how to write a script that is the guide for the rest of our work. The video essay is different with normal video that we did for last few projects. According to Professor Louis, to make the video more completed and fluent, we need to add some pictures that are closely related to the topic, making the video more narrative. Because our video should be limited in five to six minutes, the word of script should be limited around night hundred.
Except this, we continued the topic that is institution, and the two reading also were talked over. Something interesting is that when we talked about the internet speed and broadband, Louis taught by some students about how to save money on the internet data using. Louis is a nice and lovely professor, I do think so.
In group class meeting, we planned to interview students in Rmit building 80 for our radio essay, and waited for the agreement from Kerri Ritchie who is a worker in ABC. Then, we discussed and decided the questions we will ask Kerri.
Following points:
- How long have you been working for the ABC?
- What initially drew you to public broadcasting?
- What is a quality/value/affordance that ABC/public broadcasting has, that new media (social media etc) does not?
- What is the biggest way you feel the digital revolution has changed or affected public broadcasting?
- Do you think the new media could ever replaced public broadcasting?
- As a reporter, where does this shift towards online and user-generated content leave you?
- Do you think the changes new media imposes line-up with the values associated with the ABC and public broadcasting?
- Do you think new media can promote the values held by the ABC and public broadcasting in general?
Expecting the interview in the next week.
